Texas national guards use riot shields to hold back horde of migrants trying to cross through razor wire in Eagle Pass with one person hurling a rock towards a soldier's head

Texas National Guards were seen using riot shields in an attempt to hold back a horde of migrants crossing at Eagle Pass.

New footage taken of a clash which happened a month ago shows guardsmen narrowly avoid being hit by a rock as they struggle against the steady stream of asylum seekers.

A record number of migrants have been passing through the Texan border in recent months, with 14,000 making it over in 24 hour period last month.

Video shows the reality on the ground as asylum seekers are seen scrambling over razor wire and through mud in a desperate attempt to reach the US.

All the while, the Texas national guard can be seen attempting to block their path using plastic riot shields.

As they jostle the crowd which contains at least one child, a rock is thrown towards one soldier's head narrowly sailing past it.

At one point a female migrant is seen being shunted back across the guardsmen and falling on top of other migrants who scream.

No sooner have the guardsmen closed the gap, another appears further along the border where two more migrants manage to slip through.

Another clip shows a migrant who made it through being thrown to the ground by the national guard.

As he gets up he is escorted to a waiting crowd of people who appears to have already crossed over.

Eagle Pass has become a flashpoint for the migrant crisis with the town struggling to accommodate the steady procession of people arriving from across the Mexican border.

Border Patrol agents in the town ran out of space to process the massive number, and were keeping them in an open field for up to days at a time in a make-shift holding center.

Elsewhere, Border Patrol agents normally posted...

-— “A full-scale, well planned and coordinated invasion designed to cause chaos and break down our nation. Directed from the very top.”

Accurate and horrific. The Democrats have become the open enemy of the nation.

to make matters worse our own gummit is funding this invasion of our country

This is weird. Ever since Blinkey and Mayorkass went to Mexico to try to make a deal with Tickle Me, AMLO, the fake news, far left "media" toads have been saying that the number of illegals crossing had "dropped off considerably." There is no truth coming out of President Demento's Invasion on the border. It's all lies.

Throwing rocks at the heads of officials across a border is an act of war in my opinion.

It’s ironic that this is happening in Eagle Pass. Mossberg makes a lot of their shotguns there, and those same guns will no doubt be used by citizens of the US against criminal illegals.

Where is this generation’s Walter Cronkite, showing the images and crying for a solution? Since getting this in front of a camera would hurt Biden and the democrats, let’s tell the media types that this is Trump’s fault. That should get some coverage!

“Riot shields?.....try machine gun fire.”

Mk-19 with HEDP would make quick work of the invaders.

Riot shields? Guns are more effective against literal invaders of American soil. I suppose if they want to go low key they can use batons and shields to break heads and bones but I doubt they will, for some reason. Too used to Kabuki I guess.

-——Gonna need more national guards.——

Or, a better choice is bullets. An assault of migrants that is life threatening can be repulsed with bodies in Mexican waters.

I think a hundred or so dead bodies will make a difference

At least Texas recognizes an invasion when it sees one.

NGO’s such as Catholic Charity are much of the blame. If I was king of the day, I would declare open season/ shoot on sight of all the Coyotes

So there ARE “palestinian” terrorists coming through our southern border.

I'm sure there are but rockings at the border are not new. The only reason we have not seen massive violence in these caravans of crossers is that the aliens are getting what they want. On open border.

As soon as Texas shut that section of border down the violence started back up.

Back when they could enforce the law the Border Patrol use to take old patrol vehicles and weld cages around them to protect agents from all the rock bombardments.

The called them 'War Wagons' and they resembled something out of Mad Max.

Gonna need more national guards. Or a wall.

All they need is bullets. I would strongly support shooting the invaders. The media would go ape-shit, but it is past time to start actually enforcing our borders.
