ARRIAGA, MEXICO – OCTOBER 26: Dozens of migrants rest in a train pass in the city of Arriaga, this as part of the migrant carvan of thousands of people who cross Mexico to reach the northern border. The caravan of the Central Americans plans to eventually reach the United States. The president of the United States, Donald Trump, has threatened to cancel the recent trade agreement with Mexico and to withhold aid to the Central American countries if the caravan does not stop before reaching the United States.

Militia groups and far-right activists are gearing up to head to the Mexican border to try to stop a migrant caravan from entering the United States, as conservatives and the far-right escalate their warnings about the supposed dangers it poses.
Earlier this week, the U.S. Border Patrol warned landowners in Texas that they could expect “possible armed civilians” on their property because of the news about the caravan. The exact details of when and where the militia would deploy are […]
We should send official troops there just to stop the apparent “internal terrorists” from just killing the poor migrants without any concern for their rights. It appears that the migrants are just trying to evade a bad situation in the countries they came from, and should not have to face an even worse situation here. Where are the “clear headed” government people who could prevent a bad situation from getting worse, if there are any “clear headed” people left in our government.
Your negative comments about our president are shamefully descriptive of your attitude and that of so many liberals/democrats. At no point has he demonstrated any racist comments nor acts. His “avoidance of doing anything about guns” is supporting our Constitutional right which you apparently are against.I wonder,.what does that say about you and being a real American and/or patriot? If anything our president is delinquent in it is in building the wall. If he had or was currently doing, the forthcoming invasion would not be a concern.
Michael, my comments are based on facts. You may not want to deal with facts, but that doesn’t make them go away. You don’t read me a lot because if you did you would know that I am not interested in partisan politics except anthropologically. I care about social values and the objectively verifiable social outcomes they produce. My criterion is: does this social policy promote wellbeing at every level? I would say exactly the same thing if Trump was a Democrat, if he behaved in the same way. If you are looking for partisan politics Michael, SR is not the publication for you.
