Obama would have had apartments rented and ready for them with work permits pre-printed.

The picture is staged. Leftist/globalists have no shame. They staged the picture of the dead migrant boy on the Mediterranean beach a couple years ago to garner sympathy and gain acceptance into europe. Disgusting lowest of the low. These people will rot in hell.

And yet this is exactly how the media is portraying it. The peace loving, hard working, poor “immigrants†(illegal aliens) who flee in terror with their babies while the horrid US monsters dare to impede their progress.

And the media wonders why many people view them as the enemy.

Profound point. When I was young my Dad old me about how "journalists" would stage photo ops in Viet Nam. A certain case he cited saw the photographer toss a handful of coins onto a garbage heap so as to induce a throng of kids to dig through the garbage portraying a scene that looked as if the kids were digging through the heap in search of something to eat.


Some "journalistic" tactics are pretty high smelling and low down.

Of course the photo is staged. Like I said in my previous post - the little girl is not holding her eyes, nor is her mother whose hands are full.

And the poster said they had gassed them.

Of course there will be children who are gassed. What do you think the border police should do when lawbreakers are thumbing their noses at the process to gain asylum?

Our country starting to look like 3rd world nation. All because Trump is a bigot.
This started 10 years ago, does that make a difference?

What did the US do? It was the first country to congratulate the president. Why does the US support this kind of corruption? Because the president strongly supports privatization to foreign corporations and financial institutions at the cost of citizens' rights. This is what happens over and over all poor countries.
I want to add something else: those corrupt presidents keep repeating that privatization to foreign corporations will bring jobs and development. In reality all that happens is that prices continue to go up and no jobs. When an honest president is able to make it to the presidency and start to give back workers' rights, investing in industries to create jobs, etc. he is taken out. Competition is a threat to international corporations who counts on foreign governments that create the conditions for cheap labor, little to no tax, and multi-million dollars concessions for the extraction of raw materials.

A couple of days ago the brother (also politician) of Honduran president was arrested in Miami over drug trafficking charges. The US supports murderous regimes (Saudi Arabia for example) and corrupt, criminal governments FOR MONEY. Because they can exploit others people's right and resources through finances, foreign policies, and militarization. Illegal immigration wouldn't be a problem, without its obvious cause.

You dont know much about law enforcement tactics do you? Go look up the FBI tear gasing of the Branch Davidians. Men women and children. American men women and children. The police do not go around asking if there are children present when they use tear gas to break up riots, storm houses, etc etc. Maybe the parents should have thought about bringing their children to illegally cross a border. They didnt seem to care about the consequences.

NeutralParty, they knew there are people like you who ignore the dangers the organizers put them through and allow yourself to be played.
These people dislike the concept of borders and the nation-state. See Great Debate topic Nation-State v. World Without Borders - Two Irreconcilable Worldviews. The U.S. is made, by the confrontational tactics of the caravan's organizers, to appear heartless regarding the Guatemalan-Honduran "caravan." This is obviously not my view but a description of other views on the topic.

This situation is not unlike the Gazan effort to swarm the Israeli border last spring. Same excrement, different day.
