They sure think like criminals complete with a 72 hour time limit to respond to the demands. The kind of people Chuck and Nancy want to let in and give them sanctuary. The experienced criminal blackmailers mindset often associated with kidnappers could become a new growth industry in the US like it has been south of the border.

$50,000 figure was chosen as a group.
“It may seem like a lot of money to you,” Ulloa told the paper. “But it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras.”

A letter from the group criticized U.S. intervention in Central America and asked the U.S. to remove Honduran President Orlando Hernandez from office. They gave the consulate 72 hours to respond.
I just saw that and laughed. The arrogance and entitlement is so ridiculous that it's funny.

"Give us each $50,000 or else!"

Or else what?

Protip to "migrants": If you're going to make a threat, have something, anything, to back it up.

I do, and I think if they did it pay per view, we could fund the wall just by that alone. There's thousands of them, hours of entertainment.

What the liberal/leftist talking heads and media intentionally cover up is that most of the people on this planet (especially those who are poor) would come to the USA if they could.

That includes billions (yes with an 's) of people from places like China, India, Middle East, etc.
Are their lives any better than those in some of the central American countries (that are being coached to say they fear violence and political persecution), because they are fleeing poorly run governments with bad economies?
How long would our country and it's Judeo-Christian western culture survive (much less our constitutional republic) if we had no borders and just let in anyone?
Aside from the terrorists and gang members, how could our culture and economy survive such an influx?

The answer of course is it cannot, but that does not stop the modern day Democrats from risking out future all in the hope of mining votes in some future socialist society.

The behavior of these migrants has gotten rather disgusting. They come asking for help, but do it in the most arrogant way possible. Why on earth should we let people in who already have shown they do not think highly of our country?
