Seriously what's the end game here? They have now invaded Mexico, and the Mexican police broke them up, but they have reformed and are vowing to make it to the USA.

Obviously we're not going to let them in. So what is the goal? Is it some Soros funded bullshit to make Trump look bad by striking at them right before the elections?

I'm guessing most don't even know this is going on. There are thousands of people marching towards our border now. It's like an invading army. Here's the latest on it:

Where is their money coming from? Thousands of people are a lot of mouths to feed, and they're just marching across the land like it's their job.

They're clearly being funded somehow. It also strangely correlates with our elections because they'll be getting to our border days before it.

oh no no no, you just dont get it......they are coming in, we are LETTING them in, and then giving them drivers licenses.....................and if you dont like it? well its simple: YOU ARE RACIST.

it's very elementary, what part of this don't you understand? By the time we are done importing our voting blocks in and taking over the school systems the typical American conservative will be outnumbered 4 to 1..............once the teachers, police, and nurse unions are on board with the idea that the right is going to take their careers away from them unless they vote democrat, it's over.....there will be no "taking the country back".........all resistance will be legislated as "hate".......you are in checkmate, little racist......have been for awhile now your little orange man can't stop the reality of the situation

Wondering the same. Although I think "thousands" is a bit exaggerated.

Don't really know what the end goal is here. Good for Mexico for not letting them in though.


It's definitely thousands. They say there are 2,000 left today after Mexico tried to break them up.

I'm really trying to be empathetic towards these people, but if 5,000 individuals show up at the border demanding access to the country with the plan to force their way in if they don't get it... you need to start treating that like a militia. There's no other rational response to a show of force of that size with an intent to forcefully seize what they want.

@s0nicfan

They are an invading militia and we need to keep them out, groups should not be allowed to force their way into a country illegally. If they want to enter the country legally and the proper way then ok but not how they are going about it with force.

@AlephZero

Why should we let in all these illegals who have formed a fucking army/militia to for e their way into the USA ?! Do you want the country to be over run with illegals who have no respect for our laws like the shit show in the UK and Germany ??

Were warriors, we got to get to the place we got to get to. Were gonna keep on going and were not gonna stop, Luis Puerto, 39, of Colon, Honduras, said in English.

For Puerto, that place is North Carolina, where he has a wife and two daughters. He said he was recently deported from the United States after a brush with the law that he did not specify.

We are going to get to the border of the U.S., he said. I am not going to stop. I dont care if I die.


so he was here but broke the law and got deported...and now he's basically threatening our national security?

if this "caravan" grows the army better get called in for border security

actually Trump said this will be a significant blow to the Democrats campaigns because it shows weakness on immigration. its more likely that Trump ans his cronies drummed this entire charade up to gain support for their anti-immigration policies. after all, nothing riles up the deeply rural areas like anti-immigration talk.

I saw an interview with one of them and he was saying that there is no jobs in Honduras and no land to plant bananas and other crops, and so they have no choice but to migrate to another country. It was sad. I don't know what we should do about them though.

It's against legal and moral law to kill, so it's illegal AND a mortal sin to kill people, even if your life is in danger.
