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.”
He said the money would allow the migrants to return home and start a small business.
A letter from the group criticized U.S. intervention in Central America and asked the U.S. to remove Honduran President Orlando Hernandez from office. They gave the consulate 72 hours to respond.
A letter from the second group of about 50 migrants arrived at the consulate around 1:20 p.m. asking the U.S. to speed up the asylum process and to admit up to 300 asylum seekers each day at the San Ysidro Port of Entry in San Diego. Currently, around 40 to 100 are admitted.
“In the meantime, families, women and children who have fled our countries continue to suffer and the civil society of Tijuana continue to be forced to confront this humanitarian crisis, a refugee crisis caused in great part by decades of U.S. intervention in Central America,” the letter states.
Of the roughly 6,000 migrants who’ve traveled from Central America to Tijuana, around 700 have returned home, 300 have been deported and 2,500 have applied for humanitarian visas in Mexico, according to Xochtil Castillo, a caravan member who met with Mexican officials Tuesday.
Others have either crossed into the U.S. illegally, moved to other parts of Mexico or have fallen through the cracks, the Union-Tribune said.
“A lot of people are leaving because there is no solution here,” said Douglas Matute, 38, of Tijuana. “We thought they would let us in. But Trump sent the military instead of social workers.”
This isn’t such a bad deal for the U.S. because 100 Guatemalan migrants would cost U.S. taxpayers much more than $5 million if they stayed here for the rest of their lives. Of course, the Guatemalans are likely to take the bribe to return home and then try to re-enter the U.S. again and use their $50K to “live large” in sunny California, while dropping scores of anchor babies to ensure that their “families” are not broken up if they face deportation.
That said, these Guatemalans don’t understand basic strategies of negotiation, and the most important is to negotiate only from a position of power, and since these migrants have no power — they aren’t wanted in the U.S. or Mexico — they are in no position to demand anything. The jewish-controlled media has convinced all these migrants that it is a basic “human right” to be U.S. citizens, and if that “right” is not honored, the U.S. needs to pay up. Extortion is a “family value” where they come from.
The notion is straight up laughable and could only have been concocted in the mind of a jew!
