CEUTA, Spain (AP) — Spain announced it was installing a 500-meter-long (1,600-foot) containment barrier on the sea border between its North African territory of Ceuta and neighboring Morocco after between 50,000 and 60,000 migrants breached the frontier earlier this week.
The death toll has climbed to 67, including some who drowned and others who were killed in a stampede to cross a breakwater barrier, the Spanish government said Saturday.
A handful of exhausted migrants who swam to Ceuta’s urban Tarajal beach Saturday morning were met by soldiers who escorted them back across the border.
Spain’s interior ministry says the majority of those who entered the Spanish territory in North Africa have already returned to Morocco.
“We are relentless against those who break the law,” Spanish Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska told journalists in Ceuta on Saturday.
Questioned how this massive border breach could have happened given the heavy security on both sides of the border and whether Morocco posed a threat to Ceuta, Marlaska defended the government in Rabat.
“The events require an evaluation by Spain and Morocco,” he said. But it was the cooperation with its neighbors that allowed Spain “to revert the situation in 24 hours.”

You mean all they had to tell the guards “we’re asylum seekers” and the guards would have let them stay there until they were determined whether they were true “asylum seekers” by a judge months later like we do here?
Because of the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision, akin to the recent Spanish Supreme Court decision, the mass migration is encouraged to continue. Read this article about the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision and how lawyers and law professors taking positions opposing Birthright Citizenship, are being ostracized and threatened.

Ceuta may well be a Spanish city but it’s not actually on the European mainland. It’s a carve-out on the northeast corner of the Moroccan peninsula south of Gibraltar.
If Spain finds the cojones to actually keep the filthy hoard out of Europe proper this mess might be cleaned up but I doubt it.
So how do they get across the Mediterranean to mainland Spain?

Can you say N-G-O?
How are they getting across The English Channel?

No, there is no unrest or political turmoil in Morrocco. Unless they could claim persecution because they were gay, they would have no case.
The Spanish Supreme Court and the majority of the U.S. Supreme Court are leftist kindred spirits who do not want to hinder mass migration. The recent decision by the Spanish Supreme Court which declined to crack down on certain types of mass migration and signaling to all those in Morocco eager for the first chance to get into Europe, triggered the invasion of that ancient Spanish city of Cueta which is on the African coast, across the Gibraltar Strait from Iberian Peninsula. Get into that city and you are into Spain. And once in Spain you are in Europe. So that is the magnet to get into that city on the African continent.
And our U.S. Supreme Court in their recent decision on the Trump v Barbara case just continues to allow the mass migration magnet to flourish in our country.
Two Supreme Courts on two separate continents. Same stupid decisions.
And be forewarned. As soon as we get another far-left Dumocrat Socialist, Marxist, Communist, culturally anti-American President in office, backed by and likely controlled by Obama, and then they once again refuse to enforce the laws on the books that Trump has used very successfully to shut down the mass migration on our southern border, and that new admin tells our border patrol to stand-down and just watch, we will see the mass migration across our southern border start all over again. It will look just like that invasion of that Spanish city of Ceuta the other day shown on TV. And like the videos we saw a couple of years ago, we’ll once again see the caravans of thousands of people heading to and crossing our southern border.
And yet our Congress does little to nothing to pass some new laws to fix the Birthright Citizenship abuse and fraud, which is one of the magnets that attracts the illegal mass migration attempts to the USA. Heck, they can’t even pass the simple common sense law in the Senate to require voter ID to vote and U.S. Citizenship to register to vote. Even when over 90% of the electorate supports it. Is the Senate leadership stupid or just paid off by lobbyists who like mass migration and are awaiting Trump to be gone and hope that another open border leftist administration will be back in power?

They need to have those bulls that chase after people in the running of the bulls. Put them between two fences. No one will enter then.
I have a lovely bridge in Brooklyn etc
Around 60,000 migrants cross into Spain’s Ceuta exclave from Morocco
More than 25,000 of them have since voluntarily returned to Morocco, according to Spain’s Interior Ministry.

Libs and their “friends” in the MSM only freak out if a water barrier is used when one of the borders is US/Texas.
