After fleeing tear gas shot at the U.S. border, Carlos González confessed confusion and second thoughts about the caravan that carried him to doorstep of his dream: life in the United States.
[He]... had hopped on the caravan .... figuring it would facilitate his entry.... for five weeks he could hope and dream—especially as the caravan pushed past police barricades and crossed through closed borders in Guatemala and Mexico.
But the U.S. border has proved impossible so far for the more than 7,000 migrants... . He said his family was planning to sign up with Mexican officials for voluntary repatriation.....[snip]
Asylum claims are increasingly hard to make as fewer than 100 migrants a day are allowed to approach and receive a “credible fear” interview, the first step in the process.....[snip]
The arrival of so many caravan travelers and images of clashes with police have exposed an unseemly underbelly of xenophobia. A poll... showed 49% of Mexicans saying caravans shouldn’t be allowed to cross the country. “First Mexico and Mexicans,” ...[snip]
“What we’ve worried about is the closing of the border, the (colder) climate in northern Mexico… organized crime,” said Jorge Andrade, director of a collective of migrant shelters....
Luis Corrales,... didn’t expect any problems in the protest. He said the march set out to seek answers from U.S. officials,.... Women and children were walking at the front of the march, he said, “to see if they would let them enter.”.... He thought the caravan’s experience crossing into Guatemala and Mexico would prove the template for the U.S. border.
But now, “I’m done with the United States. I’ll stay here.”

They were sold a false bill of goods: "If you come all that way in a horde and as a horde, the dumb American gringos will have no option but to feel compassion, open their border and let you and the hord in. Then the dumb American gringos will cloth you, feed you, house you, give you free mecca care, give you free education, give you free money on a monthly basis. You will never have to work again and THEN, once you are in America, you can bring in all of your family and relatives and the dumb American gringos will have to take care of them as well for the rest of their lives.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS CROSS THE BORDER."
Reality has hit them right between the eyes like a GIANT 2 by 4: There is a new law man in town, his name is President Trump, he is backed by the border patrole, ICE and the U.S. MILITARY. And there is no way he is letting anyone or any horde from Mexico rush the border and enter America illegally. ..."The American gringos have wised up, ourwhole trip was for N O T H I N G."
No free goodies in perpetuity for you, GO HOME NOW!
Keywords,... SO FAR.
Need the Wall, ASAP.
Vaya con Dios? Amigo, eres tu loco? Vaya con el Diablo!
Ever since the Reagan amnesty they have all just walked across the border and set up residency. That’s why we have 30 million or more illegals here now. Why would they think it would be any different now? Every single one of them has family members or knows someone that is currently living in the US illegally.
Paging the “Boo Hoo Girl”.
Good. Keep your illegal alien loser butts out of the US. We don’t need more parasitic losers here.
America is done with the caravans.
Yes!
Snow forecast to the valley floors here in N Nevada tomorrow.
Already snow in the Sierras & chain controls since last Wednesday. Over 12” of snow at the top of Donner on I-80.
Let them walk in their sandals with that!!!

Things will come to a boil pretty damn soon, but it will be in jolly old Mexico - and the Mexican overlords will have to deal with it.
Since the border has been tightened due to the caravans, I assume it must be harder now to smuggle drugs across the border. I am surprised the cartel didn’t convince the “international workers” to leave.
Winning!!
And will their drug addled Americano clients be going into serious withdrawals in time for Christmas? uh oh.
The chain of unintended consequences.. and all that.
The Tijuana taxpayers will be delighted to hear that. I wonder if Luis realizes that the Mexicans have immigration laws too?
I don’t believe Luis because he lied about ‘women & children first’ just see see if they stroll in to the USA.
Sure, while they are tossing boulders at our guys, and the women are ducking for cover, not to get beaned by friendly fire? Cutting the fence and all? no, No, & No.
Louis lies. He will squat in TJ until he can find a coyote to pass him through.
Sorry bud, but we worked hard to get to where we are. We aren’t giving it away (although the dems want to.)
wasn’t the ‘teargas’ was actually training-device smoke bombs? There was one video put up Sunday (on a thread here) that shows a guy walking over and picking one up, checking it out, and then throwing it back down.
Good. Go home. Improve your own nation
Elections have consequences and these people in the caravan were used by the Democrats.
Oh my goodness, most hadn’t realized they tagged on 1,500 miles extra for this stunt.
The men did some walking, nearly all the women and kids have been bussed. That’s why they waited and rested for them so many times.
Make no doubt about it, this plot is also for ease of entry into Cali and their cases going before Cali lib judges.
Walking 1,500 miles further... You need to start a thread with that fact in the title.
