Glimpses of Palestine and Israel relationship? This is out of control and I feel so badly for people that thought they had hopes of getting into the US. What the hell do they do now, turn around and walk back 1000 miles or so?
This provocation will certainly convince Mexico to pay for the wall…
Good way to start the year, with fireworks! Call the guys at Strategic Command they have even bigger fireworks to drop and are in a very jolly mood.
CPB – Fired in response to a stone throwing mob.
Fake News in attendance – Majority of group were women and children. Fired upon as they approached the border, the closest being at least 50/75 feet from the fence. Stones thrown as a response to the tear gas. Zero provocation from “out of control mob”.
"…which were targeted at the rock throwers further away,”
Just so everyone is clear it’s:
Rocks v. tear gas
To the Rethugs, the choice is extremely clear. To the rest of us, it’s crime against humanity.
The CBP’s shitty version of fireworks.
What a great image of the US this projects.
So much winning.

“The agency said agents saw “toddler sized children” being passed over concertina wire with difficulty.”
Right…and the first thing any normal person would think whenever they see toddler sized children being passed over concertina wire as their desperate, destitute parents attempt to escape the horrible poverty, violence, oppression, etc., of their homeland and give their children a better life is “holy shit, Jethro, we got live ones…let’s tear gas the diapers off 'em!!!” Yeeeehaaaw!!!" I mean, duh.
are all the evangelical “christians” applauding this inhumane action? what happened to America. the most powerful nation in the world attacking Migrants with tear gas. nice really nice. be proud Trumpets
No way to prove it, but I think this riot was manufactured by Trump people to maintain a sense of menace. It’s the old union busting trick going back 100 yrs or so in using agents provocateur to start trouble and give the cops an excuse to break heads.
I’ve said it before: A portion of the population enjoys – yes, enjoys – seeing heads busted with people they hate, fear and despise.
Isn’t this a violation of Mexico’s sovereignity? Serious question. We’re firing weapons across the border. Is that legal under international law?
Mexico needs to send Donald a cease&desist letter.
it is manufactured by provocateurs ,the ones who organized this ‘;caravan’; no-one will ever convince me that these poor, indigenous people just decided to up and leave where they live and trek across MEXICO to the USA; with infants and children barely able to walk…no food , no money…and can’t even speak Spanish…let alone English…whatever made them think they could just walk across the border???and they throw rocks at BP???
PERHAPS if Mexico sued CBP for firing into their country …
Oh yea, desperate people will respond to rumors, jump on anything. They’re ripe for provocateurs.
How in the world did 1,000 (?) persons just decide to crash the border? Yes, it was manufactured to create a sense of menace – of a siege as in the middle ages against the castle of the seigneur. .
