Leaders of first caravan DEMAND 'safe and dignified' transport to Mexico City for 4,000 [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | October 30, 2018 | Staff

The leaders of the first migrant caravan slowly making its way through southern Mexico are demanding the country's government provide vehicles to help its 4,000 participants reach Mexico City.

Exhausted from the long journey on foot and frustrated by the caravan's slow pace, some migrants have been dropping out and returning home or applying for protected status in Mexico.

Aware of the low morale, the group's representatives demanded 'safe and dignified' transportation to the capital Monday after the group arrived in the Oaxaca state town of Niltepec.

The Mexican government has shown no inclination to comply with the caravan's demands, however, with the exception of its migrant protection agency giving some of the group's stragglers rides to the next town over the weekend.

Pueblo Sin Fronteras, a group supporting the caravan, has said it hopes to hold meetings in Mexico City with federal lawmakers and authorities as well as representatives of the incoming government to discuss migrants' rights and the caravan's future.

Wow! Big change of tune and heart after POTUS tweets that the American military will be at the border and they should turn back. Coincidence?

Just think if the Conquistadors had the same attitude.

A few years ago, while on a nature drive with a retired park ranger, he pointed out an abandoned Federal park where illegals had camped out. There were piles of unburied feces, discarded dirty diapers, every kind of discarded trash you could imagine. They want to come here, but have no problem despoiling the land. Wait til you see what they do to cities. See those pictures of all the trash on the ground? That’s what they’ll do to America if they get through the military. The current imported diseases popping up all over the country will become epidemics from these filthy unvaccinated reservoirs of dirt.

“If we want the left to empathize with us, we could ask ONE illegal to dress up in a KKK outfit...”

Just get some reporter to ask several of them about Jews. Latin Americans are notoriously anti-Semitic.

Would urge FR’s print up that pix add their states US Senator candidate name opposed to it and pass it out as a campaign flyer in their precinct. Like I’m going to do in mine.
Thanks for posting that pix.

Not sure what map program you use, but to me it looks like it is 917 miles by the shortest route … and the shortest route does NOT go thru Mexico City. Mexico City is probably just because they think they can hitch rides from there on trucks heading north.

“Breaking News: The United Nations Refugee Agency is ORDERING President Trump to open the border to the illegal migrant caravan!

Andrej Mahecic is the spokesman for the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR). He just declared in an interview that the United States must offer asylum to everyone in the illegal alien caravan!

“Our position globally is that the individuals who are fleeing persecution and violence need to be given access to territory and protection including refugee status... those entering the United States need to be provided access to the American asylum system.”

The United Nations has now added 45 asylum lawyers to the caravan. Not only are these UN officials coaching the illegal aliens on what to say in order to gain asylum, but they are preparing to take the fight to court if Trump tries to block the caravan from entering.

This year alone, we have given 1.29 billion to the UN’s Refugee Agency, only to have them turn around and use that funding to try to force us to take in more refugees. The UN took the United States to court during the travel ban. Now, they’re doing it again with the caravan...

President Trump tried to slash this funding, but Paul Ryan struck a deal with Democrats to restore it all.”

Whoa. Oaxaca is only 612 miles to Brownsville, Texas. USA Border.

And that’s about a 24 hour bus ride to the land of free-stuff & free-rides.

Notice that our first deployment of troops to the border is headed to Texas.

When the 2014-1015 horde (60-70K) of Central American children & others invaded, they primarily entered through Texas and were bussed or flown to other cities.

Make no doubt about it, some are being paid to march and they will show at our border in time for Mid-term elections, guaranteed. As soon as the time is deemed ripe, they will bus them for a truly circus style caravan media event.

Women & babies will be bussed to join them, that’s how they have been traveling anyway, for the most part.. They already have 14 busses that were loaded this AM before a group of reporters.

Remarkable set of photos. Conspicuously absent from those pictures are the forlorn women and chillren.

So much the better. 267 miles to the better, actually.

And what happened to the 10 million black slaves and their offspring that were shipped to Latin America?

Hmmm. With the exception of Brazil, there aren’t many, almost none at all.

11.2 million Africans disembarked from slave ships in the New World. Only 450,000 came to the United States. The rest were taken to the Caribbean, Latin America and South America.

It’s crazy that blacks stay on the democrat plantation when democrat leaders have been orchestrating to replace them with latinos for decades.

“Whoa. Oaxaca is only 612 miles to Brownsville, Texas. USA Border.”

The group has indicated that their destination is California. Actually, it would be better for us if they did go to Texas since there is the Rio Grande River that is a natural barrier of sorts.

“The current imported diseases popping up all over the country will become epidemics from these filthy unvaccinated reservoirs of dirt.”

But, but, but Lou Dobbs about had a hissy fit last night when his female guest raised this as an issue. The worm is turning at Fox and it’s turning the wrong direction. Evidently Dobbs integrity drops when the continuation of his paycheck is threatened.

He disagreed—said it couldn’t be proven-——I would hardly call it a “hissy fit”.
