Thread: More than 1,000 migrants storm border into Costa Rica, headed to U.S.

I was in Costa Rica last fall. The police carry machetes. They are a peaceful nation no army. I watched from balcony in the evenings as their immigration control convoy drove by at dusk. They set up road blocks and hide in fields I was told by a local. They are strict on immigration. Even Americans have to leave the country after 3 months even that only works maybe once or twice then they come pick you up and put you on a plane. Just before I was there a couple of years ago a young boy of 10-12 was rapped and they found his headless body in some weeds beside the road. The locals had never seen this kind of crime before.They said it was the Columbian's that had been spotted in town at that time on their way to the USA. Many of them that cause the crime on their way to the USA coming through their country. My daughter-inlaw said they leave bodies all along the trails to the USA. Mexico has murdered their citizens and friends trying to come here from Costa Rica and they are not very friendly to Mexicans, I was at a local restaurant and a latino from California was volunteering at a Restaurant through her university. We listened as she was asked where she was from and she kept saying California. She said they kept saying she was Mexican. She couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. Costa Rica is strict on foreigners taking their jobs. A Mexican was trying to sell us a time share in a development in Costa Rica, He even offered us a free stay in Cancun Mexico if we went to a seminar. I asked why would I want to go to a country that everyone is trying to leave. He said it is beautiful. I replied it is here and we don't have to worry about getting killed. His response was that the government and the cartel have an understanding not to bother tourist. My husband said you mean they are paid off. The guy put his shoulder up near my husband and said they watch out for each other. My husband said yea that is a place I'd like to go where the cartel and the government work together. No thanks. My daughter-inlaw said he would be gone in a few days when they figure out he is a Mexican. My son is married to a Costa Rican and getting citizenship is not easy unless you are rich. But they are not very happy with the crime wave that has swept their peaceful country. They call it the death trail to the America. It is costing these small countries a fortune they don't have and man power for a mess created by Obama. These lives are all on Obama also innocent people murdered all along this route to the USA with no concern and promising them citizenship and a better life. How many deaths has he caused can not be counted encouraging people to come to our county illegally. Without regards to all the cost to these countries; along with the cost of bodies left on the trail to the USA. One Costa Rican lady commented on the you tube page. You give them your hand and they want your body. Kind of a neat way to phrase it.
