Prove these people are "fleeing Honduras" rather than going to the USA for free hand-outs from the generous welfare system. Pithy idiotic responses from yourself don't count as proof. If they were simply fleeing Honduras there are lots of peaceful places in central and south America they could get to more easily and which speak their language. They want to go to the US because it's rich. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want the same opportunity for themselves that we insist on for our money - a border-less world in which to pursue greener pastures. It's unconscionable that we should deny them the very thing we insist on and actually go to war to acquire and defend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannuck Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 If they were genuine refugees, they would be asking Mexico for asylum, not safe passage. If yo want to make your country a better place, you don't leave it, you fight to change what is causing your problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are lots of South American countries which are quite stable. Most of Mexico is stable. Other, much closer countries like Costa Rica, Panama and Belize are stable and free too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argus Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 It's not just the caravan. Even if Trump did decide to focus on it to get people alarmed. They might make for better TV but the ongoing migration is about a lot more than them. Last week, only days before the U.S. midterm elections, Mr. Garcia got word from local immigration officials that their policies were changing once again to comply with a court order restricting detentions to 72 hours. Now, migrants are being dropped off at the downtown bus station – thousands a week – so many that Annunciation House’s volunteers are having trouble getting enough Greyhound bus tickets. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-central-american-migrant-crisis-forcing-buildup-on-both-sides-of-us/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taxme Posted November 11, 2018 Report Share Posted November 11, 2018 On 10/23/2018 at 6:50 PM, scribblet said: Trudeau will welcome these guys with open arms.. https://dailycaller.com/2018/10/23/dhs-criminals-inside-caravan/ The Department of Homeland Security confirmed President Donald Trump’s assertion that there are criminals traveling in a migrant caravan bound for the U.S., in a series of Tuesday tweets. Well, according to the leftist liberal actors and activists that work at fake news outlets like CNN, MSNBC and even our own CBC(communist broadcasting corporation)like to make it appear as though that this is utter nonsense. They are all just a poor bunch of wonderful hard working refugee migrants that only want to escape poverty. Why even Mexico has offered many thousands of them sanctuary but most of them refused because they said that they still want to go to America. Trump has already said that they will not be allowed to enter America illegally. It would appear as though they don't give a shit as to what Trump has told them. But they will give a shit when they find out that Trump means business and they are not going to be allowed to enter America illegally. But yes you are right? I am pretty sure that our prime mistake will be at the border waiting and ready to offer the many criminally illegals sanctuary into Canada and offering all the free goodies that sucker Canadians will have to pay for just to be able to enjoy having their company. Trudeau loves his 3rd world people, don't you know. It's sure is starting to appear more and more every day that this dear leader of ours wants a seat on some Untied Nations council. And the way things are going he will no doubt get one. Why does it always seem like all we ever appear to get from our politicians left and right is contempt? They seem to only want to give we the people nothing more than more taxes, more government, more laws and less freedom. Those that I mentioned is what communists minded politicians have to offer. Has Canada become a communist country already but we the people have not quite figured that one out just yet. My opinion of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
