INVASION ! ! !

It takes logistics to fund such a journey by that many people. They aren't carrying their own food and water for a walking "caravan" of thousands of people over thousands of miles...or sanitary or medical necessities. They aren't carrying sleeping gear. This is well funded and totally coordinated by leftists. Your joking about it doesn't mean it isn't happening. 

Bob, you have the same amount of evidence for your claim about funding that Trump and Pence have for claiming  their are Middle Eastern people in that caravan.

Holy shit, they're deplorable ! 

And you've taken it a step further to say its being done so they can vote in the November midterm election?  

Holy shit, thats better than the headline on that tabloid I posted.

Show me where I said it's being done so they can vote in the November midterms. You can't because I haven't! I have said it is happening to try to influence the midterms. The timing and growth are an attempt to demonize Trump and republicans on immigration policy. Don't focus on everything good happening in America today, look at this instead! Start an immigrant "caravan" that was originally 160 people from Honduras, grow the number involved to over 7,000 in a very short time with an invisible support structure, claim this ever-growing number is just people who want to come to America to work while they are attacking Mexican police and military and tearing down Mexican southern border gates. Those people are criminals. And, there is evidence of people from overseas finding their way into joining the "caravan".  https://www.westernjournal.com/ct/reporter-proves-trump-100-right-officials-overseas-nationals-lurking-caravan/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=thenewvoice&utm_campaign=can&utm_content=2018-10-23&fbclid=IwAR1yLP0p8J-Nk0xi5eD6f5iKYqPaNdiFjPbw8V_gIylCEeC7EBRD6EN1tHo

invasion 

noun

1. an act or instance of invading or entering as an enemy, especially by an army.
2. the entrance or advent of anything troublesome or harmful, as disease.
3. entrance as if to take possession or overrun

“We are a generous and welcoming people here in the US, but those who enter the country illegally, and those who employ them, disrespect the rule of law and they are showing disregard for those who are following the law.  We simply cannot allow people to pour into the US undetected, undocumented, unchecked and circumventing the line of people who are waiting patiently, diligently and lawfully to become immigrants in this country.” 

__THEE PRESIDENT OF THEE UNITED STATES

A second invasion force is now forming; what do mark & pj propose to stop this?  If we allow the first one in, what is to stop this from becoming an endless stream?

Is it illegal for people to apply for assylum in the United States or is that one of those Fox news laws like "its unconstituional for Obama to issue an executive order"?

Its sad but not surprising  DonDiego equates familes looking for better lives with "disease" and "people wishing to do harm".    But in fairness, thats the general response the president is trying to evoke from his base because he does the same thing.

And thats what happens when you let white-power fascists run the country.     Guatamelan families dont frighten people outside the George Wallace-sphere.

Their plan is not to apply for asylum, but to rush the border like they did in Mexico. 

There are very few families; they are mostly young males under 30. 

Is this from the same article Bob got his information from?   

PJStroh opines: "Its sad but not surprising  DonDiego equates familes looking for better lives with "disease" and "people wishing to do harm".

[Why is it that PJStroh so often makes things so personal and insults his fellow posters ?]

Surprisingly, perhaps, DonDiego equates "families looking for better lives which apply for immigration in a lawful manner through the appropriate processes" as legitimate people of good will looking to better their lives and observe the laws of the country to which they seek to relocate.

[DonDiego trusts this explanation has alleviated PJStroh's sadness.]

Poor old DonDiego does not know any of the migrants contemplating illegal entry into the United States personally, . . . at least so far as he is aware.  But he supposes these Guatemalan "migrants" are coming from a bad neighborhood, . . . as the US State Department Travel Advisory warns him:

Crime:  The crime threat level in Guatemala is critical. The Embassy has no reason to believe that U.S. citizens are being specifically targeted, although criminals in Guatemala may assume that U.S. citizens and their relatives have more money than average Guatemalans.

• The number of violent crimes reported by U.S. citizens and other foreigners remains high and crimes occur even in areas of Guatemala City once considered safe, such as Zones 10, 14, 15, and 16.
• The Guatemalan border with Mexico (and in particular the northwestern corner of Petén) is a high-risk area due to large scale drug and alien smuggling.
• The border areas including the Sierra de Lacandon and Laguna del Tigre National Parks are among the most dangerous areas in Guatemala. The U.S. Embassy takes extra precautions when U.S. government personnel travel to the region.  
• Reports of sexual assault remain high. Support for victims of sexual assault is lacking.Theft, armed robbery, and carjacking are the most common crimes against U.S. citizens who visit Guatemala, and travelers have experienced carjackings and armed robberies upon leaving the airport. Victims have been killed when they resisted an attack or refused to give up money or valuables.
• Pickpockets and purse-snatchers are prevalent in major cities and tourist sites, especially the central market and other parts of Zone 1 in Guatemala City.  In a common scenario, an accomplice distracts the victim while an assailant slashes or simply steals a bag or backpack

And hey !

__ If these Migrants are seeking asylum from bad actors in the Country of Guatemala, why not just remain in Mexico, safely out of reach of their persecutors?  Heckfire, they already speak the lingo.

__ Who's funding the migration of thousands of people across more than 2000km from Guatemala to the United States ?  Perhaps churchgoers tithing through their parishes, . . . or perhaps a billionaire who does not have the best interests of the United States as his primary motivation?

__ DonDiego awaits the legal outcome of United States v Texas addressing executive actions by The Obama: The Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) program and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.  Luckily the Supreme Court has a full compliment of 9 members.  Sometimes things just work out for the better.
