SAN PEDRO SULA, HondurasOn this citys violent outskirts, where families live in tin-roofed shacks on streets menaced by gangs, the word is out on how best to escape to the U.S.
Bring the children.
The number of Central American families with children arriving at the U.S. border seeking asylum has surged in recent yearsand they keep coming, as more migrant caravans make their way through Mexico.
Having children in tow can be a successful tactic because of American immigration rules. Families from crime-ridden Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador are able to gain entry by demonstrating a credible fear of returning home.
Then, as they wait for court hearings on their asylum claims in a process that can take years, most are released into the U.S. because of a 20-day limit on detaining minors; an adult traveling alone could be detained much longer.
Doris Paz, a 29-year-old mother of three, said that is how her sister-in-law reached San Antonio. It is how a neighbor recently crossed into the U.S. with two children. It is why a cousin grabbed her children and joined a caravan of migrants that left Honduras last month. And it is why Ms. Paz joined the same caravan with her 6-year-old son.
They say that bringing your child is your ticket in, said Ms. Paz. After a few days walking with her son under tropical heat, however, she turned around and went home.
In fiscal year 2018, which ran from October 2017 to September 2018, a record of 107,212 immigrants traveling in families were apprehended at the U.S. border with Mexico, compared with 14,855 in fiscal year 2013, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The number of apprehended families hit a new monthly record in October, with officials catching roughly 23,100 immigrants traveling as families.

Yeah
I suppose some honduran women have 20 sons between the ages of 16 - 22
only if they come in through LEGAL CHANNELS. Otherwise, deport them as a family. No exceptions.
So funny reading comments on here about sending people back. Like anything is going to be done based on your empty talk. These are the same people who probably shop at target, buy from amazon, support the NFL, stream movies from Netflix and then cry when the deep state grows even larger. What a joke this has all become.
Not when they don't have a pot to pee in or a window to throw it out! These countries south of our border do not have economies that will support their populations. That is their fundamental problem. So having unfettered procreation simply exacerbates the problem.
detain the adults and send thee kids to CPS because mom and dad are in custody and they endangered the kids life when they tried to sneak in to the country.
Leave as a family too
Immigration and Congress are sick & evil.
Congress hates you. You are under serious invasion
Congress is the Enemy of the People.
Congress & the CoC Chamber of Congress are delivering you and your family into violent war.
Be prepared.
Ok, all children have to have the DNA of either father or mother, and father and mother must provide a marriage certificate to prove this is a family. If the child is not genetically related, then they need to produce adoption records.
Napalm sticks to kids
And the WSJ cheers.
“Im not confident that we can win this war.”
Once you understand that the sole purpose of the propaganda press is to depress you and turn you into a defeatist, then you’ll find you have all kinds of confidence. Have you ever confronted a leftist “reporter” and called her a Nazi? It builds confidence, and it’s fun to watch their heads spin around at 500 mph and spit green pea soup like Linda Blair.
So here’s the vile traitors at the WSJ publishing instructions for their useful idiot Central American dopes on how to apply for asylum.
Can’t we just give them money to leave at this point? It’s cheaper than keeping them here and our money would be worth a lot more in their hell hole country
If the whining commieratscumbags would SHUT THE H&!! UP. We would Win...
If this garbage would put half the energy into fixing their countries that they do into coming up with all manner of deviousness to get in here they wouldn’t have to run away from their respective countries.
DNA testing.
“Family” in this case being a guy, a chick, and some kids. No one has to be related to anyone else. DNA testing on every single person to verify whether they’re related will keep them squatting in TJ for quite a while longer.
We can play this game for a long time. No problem.
