Brazen for them to all show up for a meeting. Big talk in front of their enablers. Let’s see how many actually do fight deportation while in custody.

Trump should hire Arpiao to set up and run a mass detention right on the border and give him 25 cents a days to feed each of the,.

I agree with you. Since when do they have a choice.

I think Sheriff Joe is out of a job these days ..... let him run the detention centers. If they overflow, go to tents, & as per the food for inmates (from various sources), the Sheriff Joe meal plan works for me - weeks/months/years in “detention” won’t be such a good option for illegals:

Inmates in Arizona’s Maricopa County jail system already have it harder than most other prisoners. By decree of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, they are only given two meals a day, which they must pay for out of pocket.

Arpaio has “even stopped serving them salt and pepper” to save taxpayer money .........

The average meal for an inmate in a Maricopa County jail costs between 15 and 40 cents, according to the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office website.

Since most of these so-called migrants are also illegals who have committed a host of crimes to get here and stay here, the solution is to prosecute each to the fullest extent of the law and then offer him/her the choice of a long prison sentence followed by deportation or deportation with a criminal conviction and a very short or nonexistent period of confinement. Should squeeze a to of them out.

Mexico must be some sh!t hole, why are they so proud of it if they won’t go back?
Seems to me if I fled a place that was so bad I’d rather rot in jail than return to it, the last thing I would do is fly that flag in the country I fled to.

Nice try, WSJ. They’re high on the “clog up the courts!” command from Wetback High Command a few days ago. Let’s see how long the first few play the noble prisoner role before they realize that the revolving door and “permisos” are things of the past before we start worrying about the cost of keeping them in jail or whatver.

Why didn’t ICE conduct a raid on that meeting?

That would have been beautiful.

Round them up and send them back to Mexico.

More Fake News from WSJ!

They are criminals because they are here illegally.

Of course they want to stay here with their free: housing, health care, cell phones, ebt cards, WIC, free breakfast/lunch and sometimes dinner for their kids at school, and elevated status to heros by our mentally ill libs, versus none of the above in Mexico.

I find it amusing that Mexican officials think that living in a detention camp in the US is better than living free in Mexico.

Mr. Ríos Piter also urged Mexico to pressure the U.S. by buying food such as yellow corn from other suppliers. “We should be very clear that we won’t buy not one ton of corn from the U.S.,” he said. “The whole Corn Belt voted for Trump, and we bought $1.6 billion of corn last year. Let’s stop it.”

Mexico is buying corn from the U.S.? Whose fault is that? Aren't they the ones who literally invented it?

All but one of about 50 undocumented Mexican migrants at a meeting Saturday indicated they would rather risk detention and long court battles in the U.S. than return to Mexico voluntarily.

One Minute America is a Racist Mean Country and they are Proud to be Mexicans and Love their Homeland
, the next minute they will do ANYTHING to NOT go back to their Beloved Homeland???

“We are here to fight.”

Therein lies the problem, you are here to fight, not assimilates. Come back legally and then there will be no need to fight. My guess is though, that you would still fight.
