MURRIETA, Calif. (AP) — Protesters have blocked buses carrying migrants from overcrowded facilities on the Texas border to a Southern California processing center.

Several dozen protesters, some waving U.S. flags and signs denouncing illegal immigration, converged Tuesday outside the Border Patrol facility in Murrieta. The buses finally backed away from the facility. Their destination was not immediately known.

The protesters are upset that 136 migrants — mainly families and children — were flown to San Diego from Texas on Tuesday.

U.S. authorities are trying to deal with tens of thousands of immigrants, many of them unescorted children, who since October have flooded across the U.S. border with Mexico in the Rio Grande Valley.

I wonder if someone will hijack a bus and take to the prison where the Marine is being held hostage and demand a prisoner swap.

They are not migrants, they are illegal aliens.

I’m impressed but sadly Obama acts as if he has 100% support for his actions.

Wow...good for them. The Mayor let the citizens know they were coming. We need more of this. Deny them entry. Send them back

BTW, they’re not migrants.

Last week here in SW Pennsylvania I saw a Mexican family of four in the Wal-mart parking lot with a sign begging for food or money. Everyone I saw ignored them. They looked well fed to me. If I thought that the little kids were "starving" I would buy them food. I have been hungry before and lived in foster homes as a child. This is the first time I have ever seen this in my area.

Maybe the word is getting out that these people are carrying diseases.

Any Group taking Credit for the Protest?

Protesters impeded the arrival of several buses transporting undocumented immigrants into a US Border Patrol station in Murrieta, California on Tuesday, some 60 miles north of San Diego. The Central American immigrants had been flown to San Diego from Texas

Why is Obama breaking up families? He should be charged with child abuse!
