You mean we let hordes Canadians bumrush our border without paperwork and without even speaking to any customs officials? Did you even read what's going on with the caravan? They've been marching for a week through the country and have passed through every checkpoint unchallenged, though they have no documentation. The whole point of the caravan being over 1,000 people is that if the group is large enough, authorities will just relent.

Another thing ...

Easter is not Christmas, people.

Christ died because he allowed himself to be subject to the law, even if the charges were false.

He didn't rise from the dead to tell us, "Let people break the law for their own benefit".

Actually he repealed one of the deepest laws of nature if you believe he arose from the dead.

And no he was not subjected to lawful punishment. He committed no crime. So if you believe he was the Son of God he died because he chose to. There is a term for that.

LMAO! Well, except that we don't let Canadians into our country without their passport, and Mexico won't let them into their country without their passport.

If I were Prez of Mexico and had encouraged such a thing, I wouldn't want to visit Trump, either. Trump will chew his ass if he gets the chance.
If, as you say, it creates a problem for Mexico, then GOOD! They asked for it.

There is no Mexico/Honduran border. The southern border of Mexico is Belize and Guatemala. Whoever they are, they came through Guatemala and they come with Mexico's blessing.

Actually we would have no problem with a whole mess of Canadians rushing the Mexican border. I have no idea why they would as they get into Mexico with the same ease an American does.

When trying to set up similar situations you need a little more thought. That would keep the egg off your face.

What egg on my face? Is that a [terrible] Easter joke? Show me the crowd of 1000+ Canadians who were allowed to breach our border on the premise that they're just passing through the US on their way to another destination. The actual thread topic is this particular caravan of "undocumented" Central Americans who are allowed to bypass all governmental checkpoints in Mexico, whose goal is to get to the U.S. border and claim asylum. Where is your news coverage of Canadians doing the same?

Like I said...you didn't read article. Maybe if I post if the fourth time some of you will actually read it.

For five days now hundreds of Central Americans — children, women, and men, most of them from Honduras — have boldly crossed immigration checkpoints, military bases, and police in a desperate, sometimes chaotic march toward the United States. Despite their being in Mexico without authorization, no one has made any effort to stop them.

“If we all protect each other we'll get through this together,” Abeja yelled through a loudspeaker on the morning they left Tapachula, on Mexico's border with Guatemala, for the nearly monthlong trek.

And you seem not able to understand the similarity of how we treat Canadians as the Mexicans treat Hondurans. It has nothing to do with the Canadians doing anything in Canada. They come into the US and freely move around for days to months and then leave. Our Niece and husband in fact spend much of the winter in Hawaii and then come back to the US and pass on to Mexico. Then they go home to Canada. They do that pretty much every winter.

So the Mexicans allow Hondurans to pass through as we allow Canadians to pass through. In fact our Canadians often stay for long periods of time in the US.

In this particular case the Mexicans have decided to allow a group to pass through peaceably. They have no position in this battle. In fact they may well give a hard time to any Hondurans who decide to stay in Mexico. And they have enough control over their immigration system to make it stick...unlike the US.

But the US won't fix our system because the right wing will not allow it.
