President Donald Trump issued a dire warning to would-be immigrants making their way toward the U.S., warning that thousands of U.S. troops being sent to the border would return fire if caravan members throw rocks at them.
Trump has already ordered thousands of troops to the southern border, and was asked after delivering a fiery speech at the White House whether he envisioned them firing on the people making there way approaching the border on foot.
'I hope not. I hope not. It's the military. I hope there won't be that. But I will tell you this: Anybody throwing stones, rocks, like they did to Mexico and the Mexican military, Mexican police where they badly hurt police and soldiers of Mexico we will consider that a firearm,' Trump warned.

Bingo! Soros and his toadies are counting on that.
Let them ALL eat nausea gas and get warm from the microwave cannon. Seriously, this is an invasion.
an unskilled horde of democrat human shields and votes. a Cloward Piven action on our sacred institutions -
FAKE NEWS
I did not get past the title as that is not what I heard Trump say. He said if they throw rocks it will be considered as if they have a rifle.
That is what Trump said or at least was reported to be his words.
Trump reportedly said WE WOULD CONSIDER THAT A FIREARM BECAUSE THERES NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE
At one point, he said that the Mexican military had a hard time trying to stop the 2nd caravan.
He went on to say ‘ours won’t’.
:)
I didn’t hear him say that. I heard him say if rocks are thrown, we will consider them (the rocks) to be guns.
I did not hear him say that our troops would “open fire” on the invaders.
Soro's army will be in a world of hurt if they are truly stuck on stupid. These little Hemez-turdteen wannabee's and the real ones in this caravan ( and I suspect we have embeds getting intel on these turd-brains ) think they are bad? Oh they are in for a surprise, let them try it...
All I saw is a third-party caption concerning Trumps alleged remark about firearms. Did I miss something?
Tear gas, stink bombs, rubber bullets, Obama’s 25 greatest speeches.
Wait, that last part may violate the Geneva Convention.
We’ll bring out the LeRoy Nieman paintings first.

Bingo I suspect they will use these non-traditional type crowd control devices. Love to know if we have the Israeli Skunk Spray Truck @ the ready as well.
Anybody throwing stones, rocks, like they did to Mexico and the Mexican military, Mexican police – where they badly hurt police and soldiers of Mexico – we will consider that a firearm
Shooting at rock throwers was an Obama administration policy, so how does Trumps restatement differ?
I still say we should blast the hell out of them with fire hoses!! They will probably all fall ill with the smell of CLEAN!!
Stones are weapons.
Designated shooters. Good ones.

So True. The Donald leaves the actual response open but the MSM defines it as “ shooting” Click bait headline and misleading....
Do what the Belgians did to the Brits who disrupted the World Cup Soccer matches. Hit them with water cannons.... It stopped the perpetrators and calmed the mob down...
They warned them, and then showed the actual use on TV that night as a detterent....
Personally I like the “ skunk juice “ sprayed on them..... Leaves an immediate and lasting impression...
Thanks for the clarification.
But it’s left ambiguous whether someone has to be badly hurt first. I’m betting not.
