REPORT: Central American Migrants Set Fire to Mexican Immigration Facility
Breitbart ^ | 30 Oct 2018 | Ildefonso Ortiz and Brandon Darby

Posted on 11/01/2018 8:44:16 AM PDT by UMCRevMom@aol.com

A group of Central American migrants facing deportation set fire to a Mexican immigration facility in an apparent attempt to escape. The alleged arson comes at a time when Mexican authorities reported the use of firearms and Molotov cocktails within the migrant caravans as they make their way through Mexico to the United States.

The fire was reportedly started at a facility dual-purposed as a checkpoint and makeshift detention center for Mexico's National Migration Institute (INM) in Pijijiapan, Chiapas, when a group of migrants housed there set fire to their mattresses, Televisa Noticias reported. According to local public safety director Jaime Marroquin, authorities were housing 21 men, five women, and three children which were in the process of being deported. The migrants reportedly set fires to give cover to their escape.

Firefighters responded to the scene while Mexican Federal Police officers detained the alleged runaways and moved them to a large immigration facility in Tapachula, Chiapas.

The fire comes only hours after Mexican Federal Police arrested two Honduran men who allegedly shot at cops guarding the migrant caravan currently in Chiapas, Breitbart News reported. The caravan began its journey earlier this month in Honduras and publicly announced its intent to reach the U.S. border. The Mexican government offered the caravan temporary jobs, health care, and education if they agreed to stay in southern Mexico and follow the country's legal procedures for requesting asylum. The group largely turned down the offer, however, according to the INM, 111 migrants agreed and requested Mexican identification documents.

The invaders are carrying live ammunition..

Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer want open borders but don't want Americans to defend their sovereign nation....don't let these liberals destroy our nation, vote for Trump and continued law by united States Constitution...vote Republican.

Geez, do you think they will do that when they arrive at the USA? Trump will surely be blamed for it.

Except no one will see it. Not one Network will run the story, maybe FNC but it’s a sad reality most people still get the news from the big 3 networks.

Nah, you’re just making that up to stoke fear and xenophobia. And racism. And stuff. You fear-stking, xenophobic racist ...

Everyone knows these folks are pitiful, desperate sanctuary seekers with babes in their arms and hope in their blessed little hearts.

I don’t see why Jorge Ramos can’t take at least some of these in as his house guests. He owns a huge mansion. He can’t say he dosen’t have room. How can he criticize us for caring too little about them as a group, if he doesn’t make an effort to help any of them in particular.

Was it Kant who proposed that we can test whether something is good or not by generalizing it? Should I drop this candy wrapper on the ground? No, because suppose everyone did that, what would this place look like? It works the other way around just as well. Who was it who said that many of those who criticize others for not caring enough about their fellow man, are incapable of caring much about any

Pretty obvious that our plan is to confine the members of the caravan to tent cities while adjudicating their amnesty appeals. In light of this report, how well do you think that will work?

Liberals always speak in abstractions. That’s what allows them to pontificate about the ideal with no anchor to the real.

They live in a world of “should” and “might,” not “is.”
