Immigrant Caravan's WTF?!

mammajamma

This is just kerrraaazy!

I've heard mention of it over the last few days but only read into it tonight. According to different sources there are between 4 and 15 thousand people marching toward the border of the united states, with more joining in each day.

This particular caravan is from Honduras in the main, but already there are apparently several other copy-cat caravans starting from Salvador and other places too.

Looking at videos of the marching lines it just seems apocalyptic. Whats going to happen here, and more importantly, whats the knock-on effect going forward? Is there going to be violence at the border and people killed en masse (already many clashes along other countries borders)?

Why are they walking through several safe countries if they just want to escape so-called immediate oppression?

If the united states lets them in, surely that's the signal for the whole of central and south America to just walk in and set up shop. What signal will that send about Europe, if any?

This is going to end really badly. Its so out of control, I don't even have a suggestion as to how to fix it.

Does anyone else see this ending in a good way?

And seeing as we're out of time-machines, what outcome do you see in reality?

Not to mention they already passed through several safe countries, so whats up with that?

I mean, even if a gigantic wall were built, this gives the impression that people are going to just camp out beside it, in ever greater numbers.

What then?!

I completely understand people needing to escape dangerous situations. But this is something different. This isn't about safety or danger.

I feel that the majority of the blame lies at the feet of those who rolled out red-carpets for immigration. It was always going to end this way. A bad idea for everyone involved, except for the short-term, feel-good, no-brainers who got this ball rolling.

Plenty of things shouldnt have happened in the past with regard wars and western intervention, but this insanity was never going to solve any of it. In fact, it seems like it has made things far, far worse going forward.

Its almost incredible.

It is all a bit like Game of Thrones really.

There are going to be absolute ructions over this. Let them all in, you may as well declare that you don't have a country, and watch the united states just descend into mad-max style violence.

Don't let them in, they'll either start piling up at the border and/or it will cause an internal civil war (and maybe not just politically).

Mad stuff, ted.

I don't see any solution for this.

Those crazy lies were always going to lead to this stuff eventually. Its STILL weird to actually see it in action though. And if anything, its just the beginning.

I mean, why would it stop now?

It certainly isn't impossible that there will be some kind of bloodbath at the American border. And then an internal bloodbath within the united states, I mean, at the end of the day, there are a lot of people living in America that want this to happen, friends, families, mis-guided people. Theyd all be pushing for this. That countries going to go pop!

nullzero

Such a preposterous situation.
Why should any country be expected to simply allow that many people just walk over their border.
There are people in America who will be up in arms over these people not being allowed cross the border.
It's like something from a cartoon, absolutely outlandish.

There was some controversial book written way back (not a lot of info there!), and the basic concept was that ship after ship load of third world people just arrive on the shores of Britain (think it was Britain). There were so many, there was only the choice of mass murder, or just allowing them all in. So they let them all in and the country is just destroyed by the numbers.

Whatever that book is, this is like the test for it or something. I mean, if several hundred thousand people just turned up at the border with America, what could happen?

And whats to stop that from happening? Its just people walking!

Some dodge-minded people thought it was a great message to send out to the world, like merkle...it was a terrible idea. Like, perhaps one of the worst decisions of the century, even only 18 years into it.

Heysoos....I'm getting baffelized here

I am assured quite regularly here,and elsewhere,that America is a kip,yea ?

It's full of druggies,gangsta's,cowboys n' girls and loads of other indescribables ?

Loads of Homeless.....loads of sick and indigent....no Free Transport Scheme,No HSE/NHS or Doctors Visit Cards and,apparently only the Red Indians qualify as "Native".

Oh and yes,I nearly forgot,the place is run by a hugely unpopular despotic President who seized power in a sort of coup apparently ?

So..........

Has nobody told these Caravanist's the truth....

Surely,if they knew THE TRUTH,they'd do a rapid U turn and head instead for North Korea,China,Russia or some other really friendly and welcoming place...or even Ireland ?

It's baffling Joe,really baffling :cool:

Watched a cnn interview earlier, and they had a reporter travelling with one of the caravans. There are people in the crowd literally saying trump is the antichrist, and amercia has no right to turn them away, and that they are "workers and fighters"

I mean, you cant make this up!

It seems to be the way of most countries now, there is one side that lives in reality, and the other side that lives in some alternate dimension.

The problem in dealing with people unattached to reality is that you'll end up looking like the bad guy. Its ridiculous.

Like stopping a child from eating too many sweets for its own good, only in this case the child throws a tantrum via worldwide broadcasting and tries to rally others to its cause.

The people who set-up and encouraged this infantile behaviour should be brought to hand for this. In this particular case with the caravans, theres a very strong likelihood there will be bloodshed. The encouragers should be held accountable.

It’s supposed to be 40 days away from US border. Every piece I seen on this caravan has been totally anti US / anti Trump. No borders. Blow me.

Don't forget, its not the only one, apparently there are more on the way.

Its just lunacy, I'm not mad on Donald trump, but compared to the options on offer over there...theres literally no choice but him. The others are spaced out of their minds.

What a choice!

Camp of saints. A right wing book.

Honestly if you told me that this caravan was secretly funded by the right or Russia I’d believe it.

Trump seems to understand that too. If thousands of people are outside a wall in one great group it will seem like an invasion, even though relative to yearly immigration it’s not huge.

The crowd at the wall will probably grow anyway by the time it gets there, with local Mexicans, activists, NGOs and others joining the protests. There could be 100,000 or more.

Rather than discredit the wall it would do the exact opposite.

That's just it, its so ridiculous in origin, it would be normal to question it!

When I fist heard mention a few days ago, I honestly believed it was some kind of trump mega-exaggeration, maybe even a lie. The media! But you can see it actually marching along, unless they're all republican actors. Or are they Russians, I forget what I was told to believe?

This reminds me a lot of the invasion of the Americas by Europeans

mynamejeff

Well they get stopped at the boarder . sorry folks your no coming in without the right papers and we have no idea who or what you are .

camp set up on in one of the most lawless places in the world containing a large percentage of desperate and helpless people

lefty's and bleeding hearts scream bloody murder . criminals and people traffickers run amok in the camp

eventually there's an attempt to storm the wall and there's bloodshed , lots and lots of bloodshed.

the left's try and get trump impeached again the right wing nut jobs hail him as a savior of nation.

it all fades away sort of like the occupy movement because it does not effect the people who matter

Trump considering sending 15000 troops to the Border. Should be interesting.

US troops will consider those throwing rocks to be the same as those with guns......


Wtf, have they been getting protest control lessons from the Israeli's?

Nowhere near that number would be throwing rocks. It's like the paratroopers up North shooting protesters.

If 15000 march together, across different countries, that could appear to be an invasion.

IvySlayer

Sending troops was a smart idea, PR wise anyway, or else vigilantes with guns would be there instead.

Bought time anyway!

It's sad really. I mean it's easy for us to say omg they can't just expect to walk in there, but if you or I were from sh*thole like Honduras, chances are you'd be in the caravan too.
Here in Europe we can expect an endless growing flow of Africans to start flooding Europe, especially with climate change and droughts and crop failures etc. I really expect to see machine guns slaughtering hoardes trying to enter the US/Europe, before I die. The world is bursting at the seams and resources are going to become more scarce.

Could be a massacre if those militia nuts decided to get involved. At least the army will keep them at bay.
