TECUN UMAN, Guatemala (AP) — Central Americans traveling in a mass caravan broke through a Guatemalan border fence and streamed by the thousands toward Mexican territory Friday, defying Mexican authorities’ entreaties for an orderly migration and U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats of retaliation.
Arriving on the Mexican side of a border bridge, they were met by a phalanx of police with riot shields. About 50 managed to push their way through before officers unleashed pepper spray and the rest retreated.
The gates were closed again, and a federal police officer used a loudspeaker to address the masses, saying, “We need you to stop the aggression.”
Waving Honduran flags and carrying umbrellas to protect against the sun, the migrants arrived earlier at the Guatemalan side of the muddy Suchiate River that divides the country from Mexico, noisily demanding they be let in.
“One way or another, we will pass,” they changed, clambering atop to U.S.-donated military jeeps parked at the scene as Guatemalan police looked on.
Young men began tugging on the fencing and finally succeeded in tearing it down, and men, women and children rushed through and toward the border bridge just up the road.
Edwin Santos of San Pedro Sula was one of the first to race past helpless Guatemalan police, clutching the hands of his father and wife.
“We are going to the United States!” he shouted euphorically. “Nobody is going to stop us!”

They went 300 miles in 3 days from Chiquimula, Guatemala to the Mexico border crossing. Someone is providing motorized transportation.
I thought we had started building the wall.
And disease .
He!! They’d have to come to Houston to get the bulk of MS13 gang members it seems
Agree.
Close the border right before the election. The Left and the Mockingbird Media will go nuts. Let them. Americans will cheer.
Then, start sending the millions of Takers and Invaders home to their own countries. They care so much? Then fix things for your own families, communities, and nations.
Agreed. That is why we need the Wall.
We all know why Congress has not funded this wall. They are bought off and corrupt Globalists.
But after the fall elections, Trump needs to leverage his power.
Priority should be given to deportation orders, we do not need immigration period.
There is an illegal population here about equal to the population of California and they vote like California. You want a free America with a Constitution that has made us the envy of the world, then you have to stop the invading hordes.
G-D@mn the Bush family and all their New World Order friends.
We should deploy troops to the southern border and close it. Send along a *lot* of 50 cal and 5.56 ammo.
At the WH, under the Honduran flag, then-Pres Obama met with El Salvador's Pres Salvador Sanchez Ceren

No doubt most of them are grad students in the sciences or priests in training.

Correct.. Europe got the Middle East migrants and now we are getting the South American migrants as part of the globalists plan.
Mama bears may be fierce, but their mothers are MORE "fierce"! :-)
What good is the oath of office if those violating it can’t be held accountable.
Israel has a fence and military stationed on it's border.
Not sure if South Africa still has armed military on it's borders, but they used to and with live ammo!
Hungary has a fantastic wall and military too.
OTOH...the idiots of Sweden, Germany, France, the UK and until recently, Italy, were/are taking in other nation's murderers, rapists, sex slavers, etc. gleefully into their nations and completely losing their culture, history, and their populace's lives.
And since you don't believe that the coyotes, or any of the damned INVADERS are armed, perhaps you'd rather this nation just takes this marauding, uneducated, FAT, worthless SCUM in. Okay...then they ALL should be sent to YOU, to house, feed, and taken care of.
Bingo.
#69. Always love your posts Liz. Always.
Amen Sarah. The political system is really so vile. And many who partake do it to get rich. They come in worth almost nothing. They sell themselves like prostitutes. They Insider Trade. They sell themselves some more. They Insider Trade some more.
But it's never enough.
Ever.
They want more. More money.
More Power.
More. Always more.
And when they come face to face with Christ, what was it worth?
” That is why we need the Wall”
Yes, we certainly do; but the Wall is meaningless as long as under current law ANYONE (except Canadians or Mexicans) who gets to the United States claiming ‘asylum’ must be allowed in.
In a sane world, invading armies are met with rifles, machineguns, artillery, and air strikes. We would be well within our rights to kill every last one of them at the border.
