Migrant groups march to U.S. consulate in Tijuana demanding reparations

Dec. 12--Two groups of Central American migrants made separate marches on the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana Tuesday, demanding that they be processed through the asylum system more quickly and in greater numbers, that deportations be halted and that President Trump either let them into the country or pay them $50,000 each to go home.

On the one-month anniversary of their arrival into Tijuana, caravan members are pressing the United States to take action but they are dwindling in numbers since more than 6,000 first arrived to the city's shelters.

Approximately 700 have voluntarily returned to their country of origin, 300 have been deported, and 2,500 have applied for humanitarian visas in Mexico, according to Xochtil Castillo, a caravan member who met with Mexican officials Tuesday. The group of unaccounted migrants, about 3,500 are presumed to have either crossed illegally into the United States, moved to other Mexican border cities, or simply fallen through the cracks.

Mexico's National Institution of Migration did not respond to a request to verify those numbers Tuesday.

The first group demanding action, numbering about 100, arrived at the U.S. Consulate at about 11 am Tuesday. The migrants said they were asking that the Trump Administration pay them $50,000 each or allow them into the U.S.

When asked how the group came up with the $50,000 figure, organizer Alfonso Guerrero Ulloa of Honduras, said they chose that number as a group.

Would we need $50,000 per head to hire a cartel to rid us of this problem?

The "Migrants" are loo loo. Nobody owes them anything.

Democrats love them above U.S. Citizens.

At least we know why they are trying to come to the US. It's purely economic.

"In the meantime, families, women and children who have fled our countries continue to suffer and the civil society of Tijuana continue to be forces to confront this humanitarian crisis, a refugee crisis caused in great part by decades of U.S. intervention in Central America," the letter states."

OK, so they're bitching about US intervention in Central America. But then...

"The letter said the group is made up of, "families, women and children, the majority of which are young men who are fleeing from poverty, insecurity and political repression under the dictatorship of Juan Orlando Hernandez. Orlando Hernandez is the president of Honduras. Their letter also asked the U.S. to remove Orlando Hernandez from office."


Uh, what??

Laugh in their faces. Send them away with nothing.

But not before taking their names so they can never try to return.

What they're doing is called extortion. If we give them 1 dime, this scene will repeat itself over and over.

Mexico let them into their country. They are Mexico's problem.

Obviously, we need new border and immigration laws.

It may be time that we adopt border law that allows military, local police and border agents to shoot on sight anyone who is illegally crossing our border.

I was surprised to discover that on this one web site 50K Zimbabwe dollars officially converts to 138.16 US ... not sure if I buy their conversion rate ... that’s still way more that I would give these guys to go away.

If Trump pays them would that also be a campaign violation?
