If troops confront a migrant mob who starts throwing rocks hard at them, and a trooper sees the soldier next to him get hit in the forehead, hears a "crunch" sound, and the man collapses and lays limp, what exactly should the trooper do?
You've got 1/2 second to decide. Because a lot more rocks are coming, hard, at YOU. Time's up. Do you pull the trigger? Or simply stand still and let the mob throw possibly-deadly rocks at you?
Seems that the left doesn't care about the well being of our troops and BP, we had lost BP agents after they'd been hit in the head 'with rocks' by illegals. They are completely ignorant about what is going on.
They think that the people in the caravans are all women and children, when only around 20% are families(women, men and children) and unaccompanied children. The rest, and the majority, are adult single men.
They think that all of them are coming for amnesty, when the single adult men know they won't qualify and are planning on sneaking into our country. Mexico offered them amnesty, a very nice package, but many turned their noses up at it and demanded they be given even more freebies.
They think that these people are poor, when they are wearing high dollar clothing, and, they are paying coyotes up to $9000 per person, that's the cost for every man, woman and child.
They think that these people are not dangerous, when there has been many skirmishes that the migrants had started. People had been killed in these battles, with one killed during a rock fight by the migrants, by a "blow to the head"...hmm, what causes deadly blows to the head? A: Rocks.
They think that these people are unarmed and harmless, when they are in fact armed with guns, molotov cocktails, rocks, sticks and anything else they can grab. They tried to murder the Mexican federal police that were helping them out by leading them through rough territory and guarding them to keep them safe, wow. They intentionally burned down a Mexican immigration facility. They leave trash strewn every where they go. Some of these people had been deported from our country already, at least one for attempted murder.
Mexico had bent over backwards to help and see what they get in return, police pelted with rocks, shot at, buildings burned, trash.
Why does the left want our service members unarmed and unable to protect themselves?

He didn't, of course. Yet another liberal screecher trying to pretend Trump said something terrible, getting frustrated because Trump didn't say it, and so lying about what Trump said.
And the leftist hysterics wonder why nobody listens to them any more.

The problem is with those seeking asylum is that there are those that are being honest and many others that are scamming the system and we all know it.
They claim they are fleeing from threats of violence, gangs, rapes, murders yet we have the same problems in our inner cities and the Left that is shedding tears for the migrants turn their backs on the citizens?
That is not right.
What most are looking for is an economic asylum. America is generally safer than their home countries when it comes to crime and due to our economic prosperity there are jobs to be worked but if they can't or won't work a job there are public safety nets that will ensure their kids go to school and they all eat.
As the song from West Side Story goes "everything Free in America".
We should all fear the people that are not granted asylum that are stuck in limbo and what they will do. Will they mob rush and crash the gates? Will they circle back and walk across a part of the border that is not guarded? If one person is injured everyone involved right up to Trump will be accused and sued by some do gooder group.
Imagine if the people that are denied set up a camp at the border, a tent city. Who is responsible for them then?
Nothing good will come from this caravan and the others that will no doubt follow.
We’ve handled much larger groups of immigrants before seeking asylum and have been just fine. Like I said, this is clearly right wing hysterics.
Trump, stoking caravan fears, says troops will fire on migrants if they 'throw rocks'

President Trump said Thursday that he hopes the military troops being deployed to the United States’ southwestern border will not have to fire upon any migrants attempting to enter the country through Mexico, but warned that if any rocks are thrown from across the border “we will consider that a firearm.â€
“They want to throw rocks at our military, our military fights back,†Trump said. “I say, consider it a rifle.â€
Democrats on here fail to see and remember that many Democrats like myself do not fall in step with our party's current beliefs - that's why Trump was elected. Many of us are concerned about the amount of illegals gaining entry and the fact we have to support them.
Kennedy would have done the same thing Trump is doing. It was country first and foremost. Having watched a lot of Mexican TV news lately - the people on here who support these caravans do not really see what's happening as the liberal news isn't showing it. Women in these caravans are sticking together because of fear of being raped by groups of men in the caravan. Many do have weapons. There are assorted gang members here and many of the men are criminals. Best to broaden your horizons and tune in to the Mexican news.
As far as I'm concerned - if force is needed to keep these people out - then we use it. Sorry I don't support your idea of a Democrat party member - but there are many like me - so quit speaking for all of us as a group. If you are so concerned about these immigrants - open your homes - provide funding - go down to the border and help out - but no - you just sit behind your computers being social justice warriors and in my opinion that means nothing - your a dog with no bite or conviction in your supposed beliefs.
It is probably a bluff and it's a good one. Maybe 1/2 of the people turn back if they get this message.
They will probably use force, but not deadly force, to keep this mob out.
Trump is spot on - if force is needed - then use it - Kennedy would have or do Dems forget about the Cuban Missile Crisis - our Democratic leaders back then weren't wussies who kept moving the red line.
