Harmless Caravan? Second Group Just Broke Through Mexico Armed with Explosives
Conservative Tribune ^ | October 30, 2018 | Malachi Bailey

While the first caravan of illegal immigrants is quickly moving toward the United States, a second caravan just broke through the Mexican border after a violent encounter with the Mexican Police.

Hundreds of migrants are following in the footsteps of the first caravan, a giant group of thousands of illegal immigrants from Central America, as they travel through Guatemala and into Mexico.

On Monday, the second group of illegal immigrants clashed with Mexican authorities after they crossed through the Suchiate River from Guatemala into Mexico.

As Mexican police attempted to handle the migrants, they threw rocks and used sticks to attack the authorities, according to the Associated Press.

Authorities also reported that some of the illegal immigrants even used glass bottles and fireworks to break through. Some were even carrying guns and firebombs.

Mexico's Interior Department said in a statement that two Hondurans, ages 17 and 22, were arrested for attempting to shoot at police.

President Donald Trump has been mocked by the establishment media for saying the caravans are harboring some criminals.

Reporter: "What evidence do you have that these are hardened criminals that are coming to the United States?"

"Trump has not referenced any evidence for his claims of criminality. We do know that many migrants have said they are fleeing terrible gang violence, with some fearing for their lives," The Guardian wrote.

Unfortunately for the left, there is now irrefutable proof that there are violent criminals traveling with the caravan.

Peaceful people who are simply fleeing violence don't carry explosives and try to shoot at police officers.

On Sunday, one day before the violent clash, Raul A. Reyes parroted the Guardian's claims in an op-ed for CNN.

"In fact, the people who join such caravans often band together to protect themselves from hardened criminals, like drug cartels and human traffickers," Reyes wrote. "Many people in the last big caravan, in April, were women and children fleeing violence in their countries of origin."

The caravan does include some women and children, but Mexican Interior Secretary Alfonso Navarrete Prida said the migrants were placing the elderly, pregnant women, and children at the front of the group when they were storming the Mexican border, The AP reported.

The left's characterization of the caravan as a peaceful group of migrants is falling apart.

It may be time for a well armed militia to join our military to protect the border.

This invasion is no joke and it isn't women and children and puppies. It is illegals imitating what worked in europe.

The role of reports is NOT to report the news. They are a political force that opposes all actions by Donald Trump and Conservatives. Please stop carrying on the outdated notion that they are news reporters. they are progressive activists.

I’m sure the Dems thought the “optics” of this “caravan” of the “tired” “poor” “huddling masses” would help them after the Kavanaugh debacle.

Man, are they ever stupid!

These violent savages have no respect for laws or for other people's safety and security. This is Me-First at its ugliest.

<><> News reports say Mexico’s Interior Department stated that two armed Hondurans ages 17 and 22 were arrested Monday;
one shot at Mexican police near the Hidalgo border crossing. The Glock failed to fire, and no agents were injured.

<><> Another reported Guatemala’s Interior Ministry said Guatemalan police officers were injured when the migrants
broke through border barriers on Guatemala’s side of the bridge. (hat tip NY POST) Guatemala’s Interior Ministry said Guatemalan police officers were injured when the migrants broke through border barriers on Guatemala’s side of the bridge. Mexico’s Interior Department said in a statement that two Hondurans ages 17 and 22 were arrested Monday when one of them tried to shoot at police in the town of Ignacio Zaragoza, near the Hidalgo border crossing. It said the Glock failed to fire, and no agents were injured.

====================================

Pictured are the "Huddled Masses" waiting patiently to get to America for a "new life." (sarc)

EVERY SENATE DEMOCRAT CO-SPONSORED FEINSTEIN'S BILL WHICH
BANS THE ARREST OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, "EVEN FOR SERIOUS CRIMES."

Democrat Sen Feinstein Promised That If Democrats Takeover at midterms, her "Border Separation Bill,"
W/ 46 Democratic And Two Independent Co-Sponsors, "Will Get Passed."

Trump apparently knows he is not just stopping the unarmed “caravan”, he is taking on the Mexican cartells Husein and Holder armed with Fast and Furious. Sending troops, equipment and heavy artillery to close off their trafficking routes will effectively dry up major sources of cash for the democrats.

WINNING!

“Shep Smith, either blind or paid to ignore and lie about this.”

How dare you say that.

Be FAIR: Shep figures there has to be someone in one those caravans he can party with.
