They have been offered asylum in Mexico. They refuse to take the offer. What does that tell you about them
It tells me they don’t trust the Mexican government to keep them safe from being followed from Central America. Or it tells me they want really badly to be in America. Why didn’t Jews fleeing persecution stop somewhere close like Iceland?

You are too dumb to talk to.

Ever hear that "beggars can't be choosers"?
Not sometime lefties like to hear. They want everything their way.

I’m just pointing out that it’s not against the law as some have proposed

They are trying to get the military to cut lose on them for bad press. They dont care about endangering those people one bit or endangering our border patrol agents and military.

That's not true and you repeatedly saying it doesn't make it true.
Why would progressives give Trump the perfect platform for these campaign histrionics?
It's leftist, not progressives.
leftist did this because they are too stupid to see that 1/1024% means not Native American.

They’re weeks away. We already have armed military and national guard at the border.
If the objective is to keep them out effectively, do you think it is better to send troops to the border now or when they arrive?
Doing so now would be more effective in getting the message across and actually prevent violence from occurring, no?
Lastly, nearly everything you see in politics is a stunt to some extent, including the organization of this caravan.

On larger caravans traveling longer distance?
You link proof.

So you are comparing a small deployment on the border of the US for a limited event to a scheduled overseas deployment?
Don't call anyone a moron, it has too much irony.

It is highly unlikely that the group comes in guns blazing and/or tries to evade border patrol. Especially when the US knows exactly where they are
You know what people like you overlook and I haven't seen the argument from your side referring to this asylum scenario - what happens to the ones, and let's remember up to 80% of the walkers have been designated men under the age of 35, what happens to them when they get denied entry even to ask for asylum? You think they are going to say "oh well, wait to next time" and do a 180 and go back to where they came from?
Hell no they're not. They are going to be the next wave of illegal border crossers. You know it and I know it, the only difference being you won't admit it. Therefore, the more personnel we have on the border in order to avoid such a fiasco the better.

You’re showing your ignorance here. You clearly don’t understand how the asylum process works. Right or wrong, there is a process. You should read about it if you’re going to argue so fiercely about this whole thing.

So you are saying the denied won't attempt illegal entrance?

Do you understand how long the asylum process takes? The military is going to be standing around for months on end.
What do you think they’re going to do? Tell me

Dude, it’s not illegal to seek asylum. This supposedly dangerous caravan is going to get to the border and ask for asylum processing. Then they will get pushed through the system, which takes ages. Like I said, right or wrong, that’s how it works.

What might their basis for asylum be? You don't get it just because you ask for it.
There must be a well founded fear of prosecution for one of five things: your race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or your political opinion.
Economic hardship isn't a qualifier.
Those guys don't expect to get asylum they expect to cross the border illegally and blend into the millions of criminals that came before them.

You caught me. I think we should let everyone in without any selection or vetting.
