That's all Trump scare tactics and its being swallowed whole by his followers.


America has laws on immigration. America has a border patrol to enforce those laws. If you do not like the laws, then change them but let the system work.

If 1/10 of the monies were spent on beefing up the border patrol that has been spent on political ad lies, on moving the military around, on proposals for the wall, or even the cost of the proposed wall, then the border would be secure.


Right now we have 2000 troops in Syria fighting terrorism. Trump is sending 5,000 to the American border and talking about sending 15,000 "to fight the invaders", which is all lies. American troops can not engage in military action within our borders. That is on purpose so the government can not send troops to kill its own people. All they can do is drive and do manual labor. Apparently a few unarmed, indigent people in South America are ten times the threat of terrorists in the middle east that have the support of numerous foreign powers.


And of course every time one foreigner does manage to get into the country because of overworked, understaffed immigration officials, and commits a hideous crime, Trump says it is the Democrats fault.


It is the governments fault, and right now that is a republican house, a republican senate, a republican executive branch, that refuses to put money where it is needed to enforce the system we already have because they do not think that will buy them votes. Instead they would rather use scare tactics while fattening their own wallets.

Come on, man! The timing is just too perfect. It's obviously the radical right pushing their agenda.

Wake up, sheeple!

What a strange post. Pueblo Sin Fronteras, which has been around for 15 years, was behind the last caravan as well.

You may want to consider switching channels as your current source is unreliable.

They won't disappear.

They happen regularly. We just don't give it any attention.

ZOMG 4K PPLZ!?

A lot more people have crossed the border since people started whining about that particular group...

Agreed. If a person is asking for asylum, we should at least find out why. When people leave their home countries, they do it for a reason, and it's usually a good one: fleeing, violence, war, extreme poverty, whatever.

I'd go back and edit the post to add "/sarcasm" at the end; but the forum software won't allow that now.

Irony is lost on the CD forum, apparently.

Maybe because we need to do something about this first ?

Also, if anyone one of those individuals fits the "asylum" requisites than by all means I agree we have a responsibility to let them in. If not, sorry , please follow the instructions on this website :

Let us ask you, should we let anyone in who claims to be an asylum seeker? Where does it end? Do you want hundreds of millions of people pouring in? Are you willing to give up your lifestyle to support these people?

Being in a state of poverty is not a legitimate reason to seek asylum, no matter what the msm tells you. Not wanting those people here is not heartless, it's common sense. We have no responsibility to take these people in and care for them.

Looks like the news that we don't want them is spreading and many are turning back or settling into Mexico. Funny how Trump gets reactions like that just by being a blow hard. Whatever, it's apparently effective.

There are proper channels for admission to the US as described through immigration laws. Somehow the left has forgotten that we do admit immigrants to the US for a variety of reasons. Most citizens just want to have applicants for citizenship done legally, so that we can prevent a flood of criminals or terrorists to the US. All of the people in the caravan are free to apply for US citizen via proper channels.
