Hold On A Minute … The Migrant Army’s Obvious Math Problem
NewsMax.com ^ | 10/23/18 | Kane

Posted on 10/23/2018 2:08:06 AM PDT by a little elbow grease

The invading army seems to be making remarkable progress, hmm…

______

There is a significant and unavoidable math problem when it comes to the so-called migrant caravan that is headed toward the United States border. The caravan is now said to have more than 5,000 people from Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, and Mexico walking north. The people spilled across the border into Mexico when authorities there claimed to be overwhelmed.

Currently they are just over 1,230 miles from reaching Laredo, Texas. According to Google maps that is a walk that would take more than 400 hours to complete.

So how is it that they are expecting reach the U.S. border by Election Day or before? I mean even if these people with no shelter, food, or water walked 16 hours a day — every day — it would take them more than 25 days to reach Texas. Election Day is now only two weeks away.

You see a lot of things are just not adding up.

If the average person walks 3 miles per hour (and they do) — then walking 16 hours a day would get you 48 miles down the road. However, there are kids and families and chaos it looks like to me.

What’s also remarkable is this group began roughly 1,770 miles from the border. That was just a few days and a couple international borders ago. So they have already covered something like 540 miles. That by the way should have taken more than 11 days — if, and it’s a big if, if they were covering 48 miles a day. Somehow they have been able to travel remarkable distances with TV cameras everywhere and not one reporter has explained this incredible feat.

I’ll bet they have a few nearby in case they are needed, along with a female to claim “motherhood”.

even at 20 miles a day, i tend to agree.

20 miles a day, every day, with luggage and a little kid in your arms all or most of the way would be brutal. especially if you are female (can i write that? should i write that? oh well).

Big sound blasting trucks. That’s a start

And at the same time shut down the ability to send money to Mexico, cut all US monies, and freeze their accounts. That will get their attention

What they are probably doing is ferrying women and children in separately and undercover and will mix them in when the men reach the our border.

ABC keeps showing a woman in a red/black checkered shirt who ‘passed out’ being carried by a man to assistance.

HOWEVER——her right arm is over his neck, and she is CLINGING to him. She is NOT passed out.

The media will pay for their lies.

What methods are being used for the human waste from 7000 people?

Its all fun until someone gets hurt.

Mexico has an obligation to protect people on their territory. They are not going to let us go in to “do” anything to these people.

I have no illusions about the people who are funding this travesty.

They have no regard for the people who are traveling North to the promised land. If some of them die it does not matter as they are they are just pawns.

This is another move in the Globalist elite trying to take down the US.

We are experiencing and witnessing an epic battle between good and evil.

Most people do not understand what is occurring.

The USA is in a battle for its very survival, we are lucky to have a street fighter for a President.

We should be praying that we as a country prevail, but each day is another trial.

So each day say a prayer that Present Donald Trump is better than our enemies, that we can hold satan at bay for another day.

".. notice how they showed all the tired little, innocent children (and the one provocative hot young woman in the forefront)."

And yet look how clean her nice white shirt is, and the nice white tennis shoes. All the shoes look good, and I don't see a dirty foot, face or backpack. Can you say photo op? I knew you could!

By themselves, yes, I would agree. However, you may be ignoring the social dynamics of the situation, and specifically, support from social organizations and Mexican society at large. Specifically, someone may give these invaders auto rides. that way they can save energy.

and when the old tech jalopy survivors show up in tijuana or ciudad juarez, confiscate them, drag them across the border, and give them to real americans for resto-mods.

Mexico also previously agreed to handle the problem with Trump. And they gave up. So it is now a pretext for a surgical operation. Mexico’s military is not a match for USA military.

Mexico has already surrendered any claim to soverignty by not acting to stop this invasion.

Try B17, B24, B25, B26, B29 .. A little early for a B52. So the answer to the question is -Zero- women or children killed by B52s in WW2 European or Pacific theaters.

The question is how are they switching people in and out of the group.

Whatever group finally reaches the border will be made of entirely different individuals from the initial group.

The only ones Pelosi, Flake and Soros ultimately want to cross into our country is the much smaller group of isis terrorists.

So, just to be clear, you wish to start an unprovoked war with our neighbor? Really? And what parts of Texas do you want bombed?

And how many civilians do you think is an acceptable number to attack.

Look, I understand the frustration with the entire situation. I understand the desire to lash out and push these people away. But is not going to happen. So we must come up with a solution that makes the rest of Central America want to work with us—not against us.

Read that out loud. And then say out loud what you think we should do.

Record it if possible.

I want you to do that so you can recognize “crazy talk” whenever you hear it again.

Did you notice it’s a national emergency?

And that we’re sending troops? As Trump said, “Not reserves.”

You mean we set up a station to vet each one individually. While they’re still in Mexico. Mexico has no good reason not to assist in the process.

They can prevent them from crossing. How?

Will they shoot them?
Will they push little kids with their mommies down the hill back into the river?

Imagine how you think they are going to keep these people out of the country. And then envision it on CNN. Fox even.

The knee jerk, lets use force answers are not going to work.
