Go ahead and blame the Mexicans. Does not change the fact it becomes our problem at the border.
Mexico does not stop the mob because their citizens along the path make money off them via food and water purchases, and taxi services on many of the vehicles. It actually helps their broken economy. If Mexican authorities wanted to stop the caravan they simply pull all the drivers over, tell them to either turn around or they will disable the vehicle by puncturing the tires or radiator. I imagine some authorities are bribed to look the other way.

Migrant caravan presses on toward the U.S. by foot, denied buses by Mexico

The article explained why. Mexico city was low on water. Look at the picture in your article Tons of women and children boarding that truck. No bus no problem. Bring in the trucks!

How is that racist?

Some find the term insulting. I never said it was racist. I explained to a poster who thought the word Asian was a racist term.

Go nag someone else.

How in the world am I nagging you? You said the term anchor baby was “deemed racist”. I asked how. Which you still didn’t explain.

Does not specifically reference any race. But the term is considered to be by some to be pejorative.

Anchor baby

So it doesn’t reference any race but it is deemed racist? You liberals crack me up!

It was the term 'anchor baby' which was deemed racist.

My reply was the term was deemed ( by GG) to be  racist and not 'Asian' as asked by Thyme.

U.S. militia groups head to border, stirred by Trump’s call to arms

FALFURRIAS, Tex. —Gun-carrying civilian groups and border vigilantes have heard a call to arms in President Trump’s warnings about threats to American security posed by caravans of Central American migrants moving through Mexico. They’re packing coolers and tents, oiling rifles and tuning up aerial drones, with plans to form caravans of their own and trail American troops to the border.

“We’ll observe and report, and offer aid in any way we can,” said Shannon McGauley, a bail bondsman in the Dallas suburbs who is president of the Texas Minutemen. McGauley said he was preparing to head for the Rio Grande in coming days.

“We’ve proved ourselves before, and we’ll prove ourselves again,” he said.

To expect Trump to speak out against these groups and folks and tell them to stay home, not needed BEFORE the midterms of the sixth is not going to happen...they are his base ...after the midterms...probable but damage already done..

Blurb -

APOPA, El Salvador—The Congress of El Salvador agreed in April to extend the authority of jailers to keep gang leaders in solitary confinement. Over the next five days, the two reigning street gangs killed more than 100 people.

With the highest homicide rate of all countries in the world, El Salvador is a nation held hostage.

First off, even liberals have used the term "illegals".  it is only in the last couple years when you all made up the term "undocumented".  Do some research...Hillary Clinton called them illegals as late as 2015.  Funny that there was no rallying cry that she was racist. 

Here is a hint...when someone is in my country illegally they are an illegal.  That is not dehumanizing but descriptive.  Just like a person selling drugs without a license is call a drug dealer and not "undocumented pharmacist" or a person stealing my car is called a "thief" and not an "undocumented driver"....it is pure lunacy.

Fact is out of the thousands, we are talking possibly 100's who qualify for asylum.
Why should we pick up the monetary tab trying to find them, and then pay transportation costs to send them back?
I believe dj, promised to house a couple of Muslim refugees a couple of years ago. It never happened.

What makes you think they will leech off of me for two decades?  Good lord, have you ever met an immigrant?  My family had 2 El Salvadoran brothers that stayed with us when they first entered the country in the early nineties. They worked hard, paid gave us money to help with food and bills, cooked, cleaned, even drove me and my sister to dance class and little league.  They stayed with us for about 4-6 months.  It was a wonderful life changing experience for all of us, and they are still like family members to this day!  They have both since returned to El Salvador (to take care of their sick mother), but they still talk to my family regularly.

Here's one that is looking for help, I'm thinking you are a dream come true for him.

His story...

MIGRANT CARAVAN MEMBER ADMITS HE COMMITTED ATTEMPTED MURDER, WILL SEEK PARDON IN US
dailycaller.com/2018/10/30/migrant-caravan-attempted-murder-pardon/


A member of the migrant caravan marching toward the U.S. southern border revealed to Fox News that he was fleeing Honduras after committing attempted murder.

In an interview that aired Sunday, Fox News’ Griff Jenkins talked to a man named Jose with the help of a translator.

Jose revealed his criminal past and said he is traveling with the caravan to enter the U.S. with the hope of receiving a pardon.
“In my country, Honduras, I got in trouble,” Jose said.

Jenkins asked specifically what crime he committed, and Jose apparently replied in Spanish that he committed a third degree felony.

“Attempted murder,” Jose added in Spanish.

There's always one bad apple.  Doesn't mean they are all like that!  If that were true, then every crazy trump supporter would be a #magabomber. That's not the case is it?

Anchor baby is not racist. It is again, descriptive and it is clearly used by women to gain citizenship to the US. Someone earlier in this thread posted about this being an actual business in China. So no, it isn't racist nor is it dehumanizing.

I did not "rant and rave".  If you'd actually read my post, you'd have seen that I pointed out that the term "anchor baby" is a perjorative slur.   Babies born in the US are American citizens with all the rights of American citizenship.  You can argue about whether birthright citizenship is good or bad - that's another argument.  But insulting babies who are completely innocent of any wrong doing is just not "pro-lifey".
