    Honduran Migrant: 20,000 Plan to ‘March’ Across Border en masse.



    NTD Television

    Gómez said the plan is to wait until an expected 20,000 migrants arrive in Tijuana and then enter the United States en masse.

    Honduran Migrant: 20,000 Plan to ‘March’ Across Border

    TIJUANA, Mexico—Honduran Marco Gómez, 26, arrived in Tijuana on the evening of Nov. 22, and slept under a bridge just yards from the El Chaparral pedestrian entrance to the United States.
    He was with a larger group of migrants who said they wanted to send a message to President Donald Trump “to open the gates.”
    Gómez said the plan is to wait until an expected 20,000 migrants arrive in Tijuana and then enter the United States en masse.
    “We’ll stay together and be strong, and then move on to the U.S.,” he said. “Peacefully, like people going from one country to another. Marching.”
    He said they plan to enter through the vehicle lanes at San Ysidro, because “it’s more spacious.”
    Gómez, who said he was a construction worker in Honduras, said he is not sure if he will apply for asylum.
    “It’s a waste of time. It’s a process that takes months and years—it’s a long time.”

    Another Honduran migrant that also camped near the border entry said his mother and his sister already made it to the United States several months ago and he plans to join them.
    Frank Martinez who is traveling with his father, said they will cross illegally.
    “I personally, and I know many people will attempt to do the same thing—it’s to cross illegally. I will enter illegally,” he said.
    “Because we want a better life, and I’m in a hurry.”
    He said Mexico has offered him asylum, but he won’t take it.
    “It’s not my intention, to stay here, in this country. My intention is the United States.”

    New plans are being made by the migrants continuously, and it’s difficult to get clear information.
    However, in a video published on the Pueblo Sin Fronteras Facebook page—an open-borders group helping organize the migrants—a group of migrants at the sports complex in Tijuana can be heard saying they plan to try crossing en masse into the United States on Sunday, Nov. 25.
    “The best day to go to the bridge—peacefully, not with violence—is on Sunday. And write banners with our points,” one leader is heard saying. “And we don’t want the media to publish this before we do it.”
    The crowd can be heard cheering loudly when they are told that they can still apply for asylum if they cross illegally into the United States.
    On Nov. 19, a federal judge overturned a presidential proclamation from Nov. 9, that said no illegal border crossers will be eligible for general asylum (other types of asylum would still be available, but require a higher burden of proof).
    “We have two ways to seek political asylum in the United States—entering illegally or entering through the gate. But we need to go all, all of us,” a leader says in the video. “We do understand how we want to cross—illegally.”
    The leaders stressed they wanted to enter peacefully.

    INVASION: Honduran Migrant Says 20,000 Will March Through Vehicle Lanes at Border, Claims That Applying for Asylum is ‘Waste of Time’


    November 25, 2018

    Migrants in the Central American caravan heading towards the US border are planning to wait until an expected 20,000 migrants arrive in Tijuana and then enter the United States illegally en masse, according to a report.


    The group plans to attempt to illegally enter the US through vehicle lanes at San Ysidro, because “it’s more spacious.”






    Marco Gómez, 26, is a construction worker from Honduras who is currently marching with the caravan. According to the Epoch Times, he was with a larger group of migrants who were discussing how they want to “send a message” to President Donald Trump to “open the gates.”



    “We’ll stay together and be strong, and then move on to the U.S.,” he said.

    “Peacefully, like people going from one country to another. Marching.”

    Gómez and several others told the Epoch Times that they plan to enter illegally and are unlikely to apply for asylum.


    “It’s a waste of time. It’s a process that takes months and years—it’s a long time,” Gómez said.


    Another migrant, Frank Martinez, had a similar plan.



    “I personally, and I know many people will attempt to do the same thing—it’s to cross illegally. I will enter illegally,” Martinez said. “Because we want a better life, and I’m in a hurry.”



    Though the migrants were offered asylum in Mexico, they have no plans to take them up on their offer. Instead, they hope to storm the border to the US.
    “It’s not my intention, to stay here, in this country. My intention is the United States,” Martinez said.

    In a video posted by Pueblo Sin Fronteras, one of the organizations assisting the caravan, a leader is heard saying that there will be an attempt to cross the US border on Sunday, November 25.


    “The best day to go to the bridge—peacefully, not with violence—is on Sunday. And write banners with our points — and we don’t want the media to publish this before we do it,” the leader is heard saying.


    President Trump said that he has no intention of allowing the invading mob into the country, even if that means closing the US border.


    “If for any reason it becomes necessary, we will CLOSE our Southern Border. There is no way that the United States will, after decades of abuse, put up with this costly and dangerous situation anymore!” Trump tweeted on Saturday.

    I wouldn't be surprised if the residents of Tijuana pull out some heat, which they undoubtedly have. Or maybe a traveling cartel turf battle?

    ‘Human Stampede’ Migrant Caravan Finalizes Plan as One Group Is 500 Feet from US Border

    As desperate migrants who ignored pleas from President Donald Trump and other officials to return to their home countries plot their strategy for entering the United States, the mayor of Tijuana is calling their presence a humanitarian crisis for the Mexican border city.
    Mayor Juan Manuel Gastelum called for United Nations intervention because Mexico’s federal government has failed to deal with the crisis, the Arizona Republic reported.
    “They have categorically omitted and not complied with their legal obligations,” he said. “So we’re now asking them and international humanitarian aid groups to bring in and carry out humanitarian assistance.”
    Estimates peg the number of migrants in Tijuana at between 4,000 and 6,000. That number could grow to 10,000 in the coming days as another migrant caravan arrives from the south.
    One group of about 150 migrants on Thursday moved to within about 500 feet of the border with the United States, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune. The group carried white flags and sought a meeting with U.S. officials.

    While Gastelum sought help, migrants who have come hundreds of miles to find the U.S. meant what Trump said when he vowed they would not be allowed in the country are turning to increasingly desperate measures to enter the United States. Migrants are currently staying in a soccer stadium that is overflowing.
    “Most of us, yes, we want to be on the other side,” said Jorge Molina, a Honduran migrant, according to Fox News.“Some want to jump over the wall, others to go another way, and others want to wait and see what kind of response they get.”
    Rushing the border is an option, a member of one rescue group said.
    “They have that intention,” Sergio Tamai, a founder of Angels without Borders. “I believe that thousands could make that jump.”
    “A human stampede would be an immediate provocation to the U.S.,” said Manuel Monárrez, a Tijuana councilman. “And justify Donald Trump to impact the binational dynamics of the economy.”
    On the other side of the border, about 5,800 active-duty troops have been dispatched to the border by the president. That number is scheduled to go down as the forces rotate home, but could be increased if circumstance change.
    Trump touched on the migrant caravan during a Thanksgiving call with U.S. troops.
    Marine Gen. David Lyons noted that his force in Afghanistan is designed to keep terrorists away from the U.S., according to a White House transcript of the call.
    Trump picked up on that comment as he talked about the southern border.

    “Well, he said it better than anybody could have said: ‘Keep them away from our shores.’ And that’s why we’re doing the strong border. As you probably see over the news what’s happening in our southern border and our southern border territory. Large numbers of people, and in many cases, we have no idea who they are. And in many cases, they’re not good people; they’re bad people. But large numbers of people are forming at our border, and I don’t have to even ask you; I know what you want to do. You want to make sure that you know who we’re letting in. And we’re not letting in anybody essentially because we want to be very, very careful. So, you’re right. You’re doing it over there, we’re doing it over here.”

    They stampede and this is war.

    Deploy helicopters with tear gas and deploy the fighter jets.

    Get the water canons ready.

    Get dump trucks ready to block all lanes of traffic on our side.

    Keep these parasites off our soil!

    TRUMP...CLOSE THAT BORDER NOW UNTIL MEXICO LOADS THEM UP ON BUSES AND SENDS THEM BACK!

    THEN REOPEN IT!

    NOT UNTIL THEN!
    ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE "BROKEN" OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM

    DO NOT REWARD THEM - DEPORT THEM ALL
