You have your opinion and I have mine. Let's just leave it at that.
So we totally disagree regarding the military in ANOTHER thread, (even in that thread, I've never demonized you, by the way) and you have to use THIS thread to say "forget about it"

You are right, forget about it.

These people were offered asylum in mexico and refused it. By international law they cannot possibly be legitimate asylum seekers.
If they are on private land with the blessing of the property owners and its posted I believe they can shoot them for trespassing.

I don't want or need their protection from whatever BS threat they think they are protecting me from.
Do you own property on the border?

Actually almost 3,000 people with the caravan have applied for asylum in Mexico.

Brown threat? I wondered how long it would take you to play the skin color/race card. Are you asking the same question for the umpteenth time again as to why we are preparing for these people now, that many of us have answered already in here?


Again, did you read the DHS site that I posted? How can you claim that all of these people are innocents? They aren't all just walking here all the way either. They are getting some rides along the way and those pictures have been all over the news. I suggest you give it up unless you want to continue to be made a fool of yourself by many of the posters in here.
You mean the baloney site you posted whose info is not backed up anywhere else at all? Show us another website to actually backup your nonsense claim and we might believe it. There is zero evidence these people are dangerous and I already told you the very definition of a caravan is a band of unified travelers. Look it up. Since they are not all in vehicles (in fact, few are), they can only move at walking speed or they would not be a caravan and they would have gotten to the US long before now.

I know that, I am not oblivious to the news. These are obviously not now amongst the people who might reach the border, refusing the asylum offer and continuing.


Why did I have to explain this...

Well at least somebody down there has to balls to try to stop the invasion.

Mexico should be to blame. They never should have been allowed to cross their southern border. They have a military. USE IT, compadres.

What the hell does this have to do with the topic other than your position is wrong so you offer irrelevant diversion?

DHS is now baloney? Where do you get your info from?
Since media gets their info on immigration from the government, who could possibly "back it up"? What source would they use?
Your argument reveals how far out of touch with reality you are. You expect someone other than DHS would have more accurate data on criminal status of immigrants.
Lets just let this sink in how dumb that is. What database does this mythical board of fact checkers you want to see back up from use to find their criminal records? The records are held by the DHS.

Duh.... oh but Trump is president so its all right wing propaganda right? Nobody at DHS was there when obama was president.

I bet you are one of those geniuses who said Bush lied us into the war in Iraq.... oblivious to the fact that none of the intelligence he relied upon was collected by our agencies under his administration and was compiled by clintons chosen DCI.


If the left ever got facts behind their silly opinions.... they would be right.
