        Would you rather live in Mexico to rebuild your life and find work or America? Thats what I thought.

        If you were fleeing ACTUAL persecution and danger, you’d take the first safe place offerying asulum and jobs to build a life and keep your FAMILY safe. That’s a thought.

        People fleeing actual persecution take the first safe place offered. You’d know that if you’d ever experienced actual hardship.

        Mexico offered work permits to caravan members who applied for asylum. I guess "work" isn't what they're looking for. Free medical care, a free education for their children and a higher paying job are not and have never been legitimate reasons to grant an asylum request.

        you should move there since you so highly recommend it. The mexican Gov required them to stay in Oaxaca- "Mexico's most violent municipality.. study found Oaxaca to have the highest cumulative rate of violence ...almost five times the national average"

        The Mexican government has a right to temporarily settle refugees in the areas they chose, in this case, Chiapas and Oaxaca, while the cases make their way through the Mexican court system.

        Don't worry - Trump is sending men with guns to the border and threatening to shoot anyone who throws rocks. Because that's what America does now - the opposite of what the poem on the Statue of Liberty says (that was mostly for white people - a long time ago).

        This is heartbreaking and I wish those who scold their travels would just for a moment consider their motives. Imagine walking from Cali to Kansas or Georgia to Colorado - all for a better life.

        Many people do travel to other states for a better life, they follow the jobs. But if we wanted a better life in another country, we would have to jump through every loophole of that particular country to be able to move there.

        Not really. The millions marching in the US are calling our president a Russian spy without any proof. Not to mention that the marches in the US are organized by the same team as the "caravan".
