Caravan won't end in Mexico. Some migrants will risk trip to US border

The caravan of Central American migrants going through Mexico to the US border isn't ending. Instead, its participants will disperse into smaller groups after reaching Mexico City.

While some will stay in Mexico to try to get refugee status there, others will continue north to the US border.

Organizers of the caravan estimate that some 200 or so people will proceed all the way to the US border in the coming days, although the number could be higher. Last year, about 150 went all the way to the border, they said.

Pueblo Sin Fronteras caravan or People Without Borders has organized the event for years. The caravan has always dispersed into separate, smaller groups at some point along the journey. What has been striking is that this year's event has the largest number of people ever, with more than 1,100.

I once risked a trip to Niagara Falls; but I wasn't foolish enough to jump in the river upstream and go for a really fun ride over them!

However, should DJT declare we are being invaded, then all bets are off and the full use of military force or some sort of ROE can be used.

Then he'd be late to the party.

Many FReepers have been; rightly; calling them Border Invaders for years now.

Does not matter what Freepers are calling for, it matters what the President calls for.

And the point was to use the 2008 defense authorization bill to do so. All the Posse Comitats crap goes away, and the border can be militarized, the crossers stopped/shot /detained.

Monitor for tunneling, collapse the tunnels, and arrest the tunnelers.

Some would say KILL the tunnelers; but those diggers are enslaved by folks south of us to do the actual digging.

I’m not into killing the workers, not as a primary goal, but I like the idea of letting them finish the tunnel and then collapsing it before they get anyone through it. Eventually, smugglers will get tired of paying to dig and getting no return on investment.

Pump the tunnels full of fart gas or something gross just to mess with them.

Smugglers hang out with democrats. I don’t think gross smells will phase them.

This is an invasion. The CIA should be conducting ops to stop them from ever reaching the border. A few roaming, covert sniper teams with plenty of ammo and chalupas ?

How is this different from the Visigoths overrunning Rome? Were the Romans extending a green carpet to the Visigoths?
