| Migrant group demand Trump either let them in or pay them each $50G to turn around |
| 2018-12-12 |
| [FoxNews] Two groups of Central American migrants marched to the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana on Tuesday with a list of demands, with one group delivering an ultimatum to the Trump administration: either let them in the U.S. or pay them $50,000 each to go home, a report said. Among other demands were that deportations be halted and that asylum seekers be processed faster and in greater numbers, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported. The first group of caravan members, that included about 100 migrants, arrived at the consulate around 11 a.m. Alfonso Guerreo Ulloa, an organizer from Honduras, said the $50,000 figure was chosen as a group. “It may seem like a lot of money to you,” Ulloa told the paper. “But it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras.” |

| #19 “But it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras.” Who coached this asshole to say that, Howard Zinn or Noam Chomsky? |

| #18 No, give them the money. But let EVERYONE know you gave them the money. See if they make it back to Honduras. |

| #16 So, “I’m not really fleeing oppression or political terror, I’m just a thief looking for money and lifetime entitlements.” This is my shocked face, and my shocked middle finger assholes! |

| #15 I still think we should just gun them all down and burn the bodies. And maybe the border communities in Mexico playing host to them as well. |

| #11 Considering it 'seemed like a lot of money' when an unfortunate 5th grader tried to extort my lunch money, yes 50 G does in fact sound a might steep. |

| #9 “It may seem like a lot of money to you,” Ulloa told the paper. “But it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras.” Ah yes, the evil Gringo again. But, but, but why do they wish to come to Gringoland ? |

| #8 ^ I think making governments responsible for what their people do makes perfect sense. After all, third worlders keep hating Americans for stuff we never voted for our gummint to do. |

| #7 How about we harvest your organs and sell them to the Chinese? How about for every illegal we find, we annex 1 sq mile of your home country, our choice as to which and we get ALL mineral and oil rights. |

| #5 it is a small sum compared to everything the United States has stolen from Honduras I see it like this, Alf. We invested in your country to prevent it from becoming a communist hellhole. Now, if you locals had made the good choice to rub out the comsymps in your country in a timely fashion, nip it in the bud, if you will, then we would have probably only come for the cigars and rum. |
