Full title: More Than 1500 Central American Migrants in Caravans Found to Have US Criminal Convictions, At Least 3 Are Murderers

More than 1500 migrants who traveled in two Central American caravans within the last year had US criminal convictions, according to letter obtained by The Gateway Pundit.

House Oversight Committee Republicans wrote the Department of Homeland Security in February about the threat posed by the large caravans of migrants traveling from Central America to the United States.

The DHS documents produced to the House Oversight Committee revealed that in October of 2018, the CBP’s Office of Intelligence tracked one caravan with approximately 8,000 migrants who arrived just south of California by December of 2018 and established that 660 of the migrants had US criminal convictions.

This indicates that these migrants have already been deported from the US at least once.

“Nearly 40 were convicted of assault or aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Three individuals were convicted of murder,” the letter stated.

Democrats keep claiming there are no dangerous criminals embedded in the migrant caravans, but government data provided by CBP and ICE’s Office of Intelligence prove that this is not true.

[Let's Roll]

Of course, their home countries just want to get rid of them.

[Innovative]

I certainly hope we are not going to let them back in.

[Kriggerel]

I am shocked. Shocked, I tell you! :P

[Pearls Before Swine]

US criminals.. and they’re ba...ack.

Vetting only works if it’s combined with an impermeable Wall

[shanover]

This caravan sh*t should have been dealt with after the first one. Build the g-damn wall already and screw the leftists. It would be nice if we could save our country.

From the article, last two graphs:

Congress also refuses to change the very dangerous asylum laws which is what is attracting these huge migrant caravans in the first place.

Democrats keep claiming there are no dangerous criminals embedded in the migrant caravans, but this government data provided by CBP and ICE’s Office of Intelligence prove the Dems are wrong.

Well Rats, what say you now?

Here's a perfect chance for AOC, Omar and Pelosi to sound off. WELL? [crickets]

Stuff like this pisses me off to no end. We gotta get the House back and strenghen our majority in the Senate in 2020. Of course, President Trump will be reelected, but having the House and Senate will certainly help.

[Socon-Econ]

I presume that the ones identified were just the ones they happened to discover. Important because the Democrats are going to argue that the number is not large.

[rxsid]

Really, the only way to greatly reduce these ridiculously massive numbers is to build a physical barrier...the wall.

It will never by 100% effective, but if it (& increase surveillance and border patrol) could cut down even 80 to 90% of the flow of illegals (& drugs, etc.)" it will be well worth it.

From there, it will be up to "we the people" to elect more responsible & patriotic people to both chambers of Congress so that they can fix the broken laws, mandate e-Verify, craft laws that impose heavy fines on employer's who have illegal aliens on staff and remove tax payer assistance to them, etc.

With no job, and no tax payer paid for freebies, the vast majority of the rest of them here will self deport. The rest can be found by ICE and deported.

Definitely an uphill battle, with both hands and one leg tied behind our backs to say the least, but it can be done if the will to do so is there.

These Caravans operate like Trojan Horses where the drug criminals are embedded in the hoards jumping our border.

Wouldn’t have that problem if The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement was in place. The list goes like this -
1) southern barrier;
2) require eVerify to hire;
3) end all chain migration;
4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);
5) end work visas;
6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population)
7) demonstrate English proficiency to acquire citizenship and pass civics test.

Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport.

Also consider reciprocation of the laws of the countries of origin of the illegal aliens. For example, Mexico doesn’t allow land ownership or voting to immigrants, and doesn’t honor birthright citizenship like its citizens expect from the U.S. We should offer the same deal to them.
