Numbers show growing migration of Central American kids nothing new
Sending a young child thousands of miles on a dangerous journey to illegally cross into America cannot be a decision a parent takes lightly. But, if the trend of unaccompanied minors flooding into America holds, almost twice as many Central American parents are making that decision this year. News 8 has obtained records from the United States Department of Justice showing, among other things, a 140 percent spike in cases from nations, like Honduras, and that this exodus started several years ago -— before it became front-page news. Based on the pace of illegal crossings in the first half of this year, juvenile cases from Guatemala will go up an estimated 82 percent from last year; El Salvador an estimated 96 percent, and Honduras 138 percent. Under a government contract, Catholic Charities provides orientation about the legal system to the people acting as custodians for unaccompanied minors from Central America. Vanna Slaughter is their director of Immigration and Legal Services. “It means we’re having to do a whole lot more work, under this program, than we have funding to really do," she said. "But we have made a commitment to i,t and we have supplemented the contract we have, and make sure we see everyone who comes into see us. It’s really added to our workload." And while this may look like a sudden crisis to most of us, the numbers tell a different story. Look at Honduras: In 2011, there were about 1,000 juvenile cases in U.S. courts. In 2012, it jumped to about 2,700. Last year, over 6,000. This year, we’re on track for almost an estimated 14,500. Representative Henry Cuellar, whose district is on the border, is a Democrat and he's challenging President Obama’s characterization that this is an emergency. “This just didn’t happen last night. He’s asking for an emergency. If he looks at it, this has been going on for one year or two years," Cuellar said. "Why is he calling this an emergency funding when this happened a year, two years ago?" But while some saw this coming, Slaughter from Catholic Charities suspects it wasn’t until this year’s huge surge in children — and the pictures of them in prison-like conditions – that the rest of us finally saw, too. |

I believe the flood of aliens is a cold deliberate move to flood the US with Democratic voters. Even if the people let in don't become citizens, they won't be forced to leave and their children will vote Democratic.
The border could be sealed overnight by National Guard. The US Navy has ample watercraft to patrol the Rio Grande in the worst areas. This is a crisis of Obama's making to change America to a Socialist society. If, in the long run, the US is flooded with immigrants seeking government aid, the Democrats will get a voting block that is unbeatable and Obama will go down in History as their hero. |

Curious why no other Politician is suing because HE isn't enforcing Immigration Laws.

Act of War on America. Mexico and Guatemala Sign Agreement to Fast-Track Invasion of U.S. Posted on 9 July, 2014 by Rick Wells A Monday joint press conference was held by Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Guatemalan president Otto Perez Molina to announce their agreement to jointly cooperate in and facilitate the invasion of their northern neighbor, the United States. Labeled The Southern Border Program to Improve Passage, it is an officially-sanctioned, coordinated effort on the part of Mexico and the nations of Central America to invade the United States. The agreement provides a network of border checkpoints through which an internal Mexican travel document will be issued, which is valid for a period of 72 hours. That document, known as a Regional Visitor's Card, will provide temporary legal status to those in Mexico illegally for the sole purpose of invading the United States. The announcement, officially granting the privileges to illegals from Guatemala and Belize, is expected to be applied to anyone who reaches the southern Mexican border with the intention of invading America. Additionally, this action even provides special protections as well as financial assistance to unaccompanied minors. This will only provide further incentive for the illegal occupation and serve to dispel any misguided belief on the part of foreign nationals in Central America that claims made by the United States that they will be deported back home are anything other than falsehoods intended to pacify the gullible American public. Far from respecting American sovereignty, this is a Mexican-sponsored hostile act of aggression upon the sovereignty of the United States. It is conducted in complicit cooperation with a usurper and traitor occupying the White House, who is himself a person of an unknown background, using a recycled social security number. Since John Boehner has announced that he won't move forward with efforts to impeach Obama, it's time to get rid him, and find a Speaker of the House who isn't himself owned by foreign governments, financial interests, or The Communist Party in America. The people of the United States don't have time to play nice as their country and their standard of living are destroyed and have no reason to. We are under attack by subversives within our own government, in both parties, as well as foreign nations. Our nation is bleeding sovereignty and we are being denied a tourniquet. It is past time for Americans to respond. |

or impeaching?
because the opposition Repubs are supported by the corporations that benefit from the cheap labor. therefore the middle class has to find a way to galvanize both sides. Americans have been calling for our gov't to enforce the laws. If any of those folk want their jobs back in Nov. they had better find a way to make that happen... |
