Teargassed Caravan Migrant Mother Is Taking Her Five Kids to Reunite With Their Father in US
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 11/26/2018 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 11/27/2018 8:22:37 AM PST by bitt

The photographer who took the now iconic photo of a caravan migrant Honduran mother and her children fleeing tear gas near the U.S. – Mexico border crossing at San Ysidro, California and Tijuana on Sunday says the woman is traveling with her five children to reunite with their father who is already in the U.S., in Louisiana

This fact not being reported in the numerous sympathetic articles published Monday about the mother, Maria Meza (aka Maria Lila Meza Castro), save for a buried mention by the Washington Post. The Post did a profile on the Reuters photographer who took the photo, Kim Kyung-Hoon, and included that Kim said he was told by a Reuters official that Meza was trying to reunite with her children’s father in the U.S.

“The woman grips both her daughters, one with each hand, as they run away. One child is barefoot; the other is about to fall. Both wear only T-shirts and diapers.

“The woman looks back at the smoke from the tear gas they’re trying to escape. Behind them is wire fencing, a partial wall separating them from the United States, and dozens of other migrants, many of them children, also running."

Well father in US is one version. Another is that they were just there to protest. Still yet another version is that she’s just trying to make a better life for herself and her kids.

I was at Wal-Mart one day and witnessed a family of five non-english speakers.
Three kids all with smart phones.
Two carts of food, paid with EBT(I know this because they paid with cash for sundries).

When I got to the parking lot they were loading their plunder into a brand new Toyota Tundra.
Meanwhile I was worrying about having enough money to buy enough groceries for a few days and toilet paper and deodorant.

But the media and politicians tell me it doesn't happen and I'm racist for noticing.

Logistically wouldn’t it be easier for the father to reunite with his family in Mexico?

Mexico doesn't want him any more than we do.

That's right. The fact that they've turned down asylum AND jobs in Mexico is proof enough that they are trying to get to the U.S. so they can get taxpayer paid housing, medical, dental, legal, schooling, food and on and on.

It's all a scam.

Iconic Photo?

I guess they had better change the definition of Iconic.

So, I guess this means she isn’t a “migrant” after all.

Screw gassing them.
We should be turning automatic grenade launchers, machine guns, and flamethrowers on them.

Partner, you hit it right on the mark when you mentioned that the husband is for sure another Illegal Alien in our country right now.

We all know that Mexico is so corrupt that it ain't funny anymore. It has been corrupt since they made themselves a country.

It is good to know that we will give it our all to fight for the rights of its legal citizens and not all of these Illegal Aliens.

President Trump is with us also in that he wants to build a 30' High Wall along our Southern Border and yet those Rinos and of course, the DemonRat party wants all of these illegals in this country.

Partner, enough is enough with these Illegal Aliens.
