A huge majority of Latin Americans (including Mexico) can not read a map. When I first married my wife, who had post-secondary education, she could NOT read a map. I had to teach her. Latin Americans are excellent at land marking once they've been somewhere, but not reading maps. So, embedded within that group are leaders who are navigating for them and telling them where to go. Our government needs to infiltrate that bunch and take out those leaders. All the rest would scatter. Simple solution.

Sure.
Pueblos Sin Fronteras probably has folks leading them and making sure they stay together.
Are their any legitimate (or maybe appropriate is the word by which I mean not neo-nazi or KKK) groups organizing a, let's call it a crusade to oppose this invasion. Think about it, 10,000 or more armed patriots (and you could probably get that many military veterans alone) headed to a confrontation at the border would FORCE the government to take some kind of action.
There using their Obama phones. And the ap called, Gringo Road. Lol.
Another Freeper had posted some of the logistics required to move 5000 people from Honduras to the US.
Simply put, 5000 people on foot cannot make it that far without help.
It's 2,558 miles from the US to Honduras.
In WW2 the Germans would march up to 25-30 miles per day in their invasion of the USSR and they had a logistics train to support them.
If the average walking speed of a person is around 3 mph and they walked for 10 hours a day it would take 85 days to cover the distance....and this is a healthy person.
Simply put, the "caravan" has to be financed, feed and transported.
How I wish we had aerial coverage of this invasion.
“Latin Americans are excellent at land marking once they’ve been somewhere, but not reading maps.”
That must be true. Columbus was Italian, but sponsored by the original Latins, the Spanish. He was trying to get to India and took a wrong turn at the Doldrums.

Education is not valued in Latino culture.
The sad thing is that there are probably that many crossing every week all year long.
I have Google Maps, as well as Google Earth, satellite gps, cable internet and most everything available in the US. I know lots of others here in this “turd world sh*thole” who do also.
Uh, Italians *are* Latins, more Latino then
the Asian-European-African mutts called Hispanics
Good point. Thanks for pointing that out.
This is the most idiotic thread I’ve seen in a long time. I travel in Mexico regularly. There are road signs everywhere. Not hard to tell where you’re going.
But clearly they are being provided food and water. My guess is between photo ops they are riding buses.
Even without GPS, there's the Pan-Am hiway, which runs from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, all the way to Tierra del Fuego, Argentina, and which everybody in Latin America DOES know leads to the land of WalMart and Taco Bell. Just walk to the Pan-Am hiway, then it's as simple as "Follow the yellow brick road."
Not so much the wind that distance in,
but 6+ inches of rain will surely
slow them down.
Actually it's interrupted by the Darién Gap, one of the more interesting spots in the western hemisphere. Too bad it isn't further north.
