    Is the Migrant Caravan a Trojan Horse?

    "Aside from potential terrorists, what else might be hiding within the migrant caravan? How about contagious infectious diseases? Some nasty diseases may be crossing our southern border, as I wrote about several years ago. How many in the migrant caravan are carrying such a disease? Wouldn’t Americans want to be protected from outbreaks of chicken pox, hepatitis, and scabies?

    Fast forward to the present and look what’s happening in New York City, as reported by the New York Post last week. “The number of tuberculosis cases in New York City suddenly jumped by 10 percent last year — the largest increase since 1992.”

    TB is common in drug abusers but also in immigrants from certain countries. From the NY Post: “TB disproportionately affects foreign-born New Yorkers — accounting for 86 percent of all cases in the city.” Where in particular, you might ask?

    “Many of the infected city residents came from China, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, India or Mexico.” Some of the same countries participating in the migrant caravan. Could contagious diseases be another Trojan horse hiding within the caravan?

    Less dangerous is scabies, which as reported last year, is “on the rise among migrants” in Paris. When you bring there here, here becomes there.

    Then there are drugs, already crossing the border with ease, which have no need of hiding in a Trojan horse. What about weapons? Is every backpack being carried through Mexico to the U.S. being searched? How easy would it be to bring a biological or chemical weapon, hiding with the masses of people making up the caravan?"

    Yes, and the homeless in California has swelled to over 130,000 due to the recent wildfires.
    For those who might not know Tijuana is a California Mexico border town.

    Will Johnson of Unite America First is reporting that AMLO moved the invaders back seventeen miles from the border and other news sources are saying that thousands more are expected to arrive shortly. It is costing about $30,000 a day in Tijuana to provide minimal care for these invaders. People such as the Mexican military are wearing face masks because of all the disease in the dust and the air. Tijuana cannot afford to provide for these invaders and people there are very angry at them, as you know. One sixteen year old boy said that he left Honduras because he saw it on television and he joined up. One wonders if he will ever see his family again? These people have nothing but the clothes on their backs. Soros gave them cell phones but they do not have access to electricity of recharge them. Actually, Soros and others have abandoned them now that they are at the border. They are sleeping outside on the ground and there were heavy rains. It has to been cold at night because it is December. I know Cd. Juarez on the border got cold at night in December. A lot of their clothes and blankets are wet from the rains. They stand in long lines just for a hot meal.

    Will Johnson, who has been to the White House for the YBLS, says that the new location is El Barretal:

    News reports have the overnight temperature at 47-48F (northerly storm) Exceedingly discomforting when used to a tropical climate

    California has enough woe with the failed leadership of its governor leading to the homeless plight, partial fault of the wildfires, endangerment to the citizens because it it a "sanctuary" state of lawlessness, regulations tying the hands of farmers bankrupting them and several other woes without adding an outside violent and diseased mob pelting law enforcement officers with rocks and bottles while destroying property and intimidating the local citizenry demanding short-cut citizenship at California's expense.

    Have you noticed I chose to write this post as if I were a left wing marxist journalist being critical of peace loving normal law abiding citizens?

    If you are jumping on the fear mongering tactic of over-inflating these people as infectious disease carriers and partaking in the rising “momentum” (“at least 1/3rd”, “trojan horse”, “biological weapons in backpacks”, “diseased mob”, etc.) based on feeding off people's differences/prejudices and fears to accelerate your ever growing accusations then I disagree with such an argument and think it is unethical. If not, then I see no reason for you take it personal. Otherwise, prove how “my” opinion is not based on “my” own values… …Good luck with proving that negative.

    “You got nothing” claims the man whose logically meaningless response doesn’t address even one issue in the argument.:rolleyes:

    How's that post count coming, Rev? :Thumbsup

    Soros abandoned those people in Tijuana. They are now too expensive for him and too sick to fight.

    Maduro got booed in Mexico City when he showed up for AMLO. AMLO and Carlos Slim are calling for investment in Mexico. Fat chance. AMLO wants to nationalize the oil industry again.
