With rifles and razor wire, National Guard and state troopers are blocking migrants at the border in El Paso
As cities on the Texas-Mexico border continue preparing for a possible influx of migrants and Title 42 remains in limbo, a shallow spot in the Rio Grande where thousands have recently crossed became the scene of a standoff Monday.
I've never understood why the Border Patrol and Military/NatGuard cannot open fire on anyone illegally crossing. You can shoot a home invader. Why not someone invading your country? Sure - give a warning shot and verbal warning to turn around... but when that fails - drop them as soon as they cross the border. It would only take a few of these making the news before illegal invaders would start to think twice.
There's a reason people didn't just cross into commie countries. They shoot u.
Sorry folks...nation’s closed.
Paintball time
Only for the first round, then get serious.
Declare the border a paintball tournament.
Put up warning signs --- not responsible for injury or death...
A few of them don’t look like Mexicans.
Mostly men.
Need the rifles for the enemies on our side.
Some of them are NOT Mexican.
Soooooooo a Mexican standoff???
Re homing some baby alligators to this river would solve a lot of these problems kek
Wonderful how most in this picture are military age men and a few have cell phones. Unreal.
Wish we could do this in England
You can stab them with butter knives.
A couple of A10's cruising the border could put a dent.
I live 30 mins from your northern border, and I have a cousin who once got really close to the USA border on accident traveling gravel roads. The amount of border patrol agents and helicopter was pretty unreal.
I grew up about 10 mins from the border (US side). It wasn't like that at all. You could cross anywhere out of eye sight from the official crossings back then. Things changed dramatically after 9/11.
