So let me get this clear.  We are gassing men, women, and children who are fleeing physical, economic, and social violence the US has a hand in creating?  This is making America great?  I guess I don’t understand how.

No, they were using tear gas to prevent people from breaking through the barriers and fences at the boarder from illegally entering the country. Some lady just though it was a great idea to bring her kids and try it after both, the Mexican and American government told them not to try it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Let’s just ignore the fact this was done weekly under Obama, they all seem to ignore that.

Let’s ignore the fact that photos exist of the photos being staged for perfect media attention.

Lets ignore that it wasnt even tear gas just smoke canisters

Let’s also ignore the fact that these “poor refugers” were pushing women and children to the front and throwing rocks and other crap at border patrol agents.

Border Patrol’s Use Of Tear Gas On Civilians Is A Grim Warning About America’s Future

Obama Administration used tear gas, pepper spray at border dozens of times, CBP data shows

As the Trump administration continues to face widespread backlash over its use of tear gas against Central American asylum seekers at the southern border on Sunday, data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency has shone a light on just how common the use of tear gas and pepper spray at the border really is.

In a statement sent to Newsweek on Tuesday, the CBP said its personnel have been using tear gas, or 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile (CS), since 2010, deploying the substance a total of 126 times since fiscal year 2012. Under President Donald Trump, CBP’s use of the substance has hit a seven-year record high, with the agency deploying the substance a total of 29 times in fiscal year 2018, which ended on September 30, 2018, according to the agency’s data.

However, the data also showed that the substance was deployed nearly the same number of times in fiscal years 2012 and 2013 under former President Barack Obama, with CBP using the substance 26 times in fiscal year 2012 and 27 times in fiscal year 2013. CBP’s use of tear gas appeared to decline in the following years, with 15 uses in fiscal year 2014, eight in fiscal year 2015 and even fewer in fiscal year 2016, with three recorded instances. 

As Trump took office, the numbers began to rise again in fiscal year 2017, climbing to 18 deployments of tear gas, before reaching fiscal year 2018’s record high of 29 uses. CBP also noted in its statement that in addition to using tear gas, the agency also “regularly uses” Pava Capsaicin, or pepper spray. In terms of pepper spray use, deployments appeared to soar under the Obama administration, with CBP personnel using the substance 95 times in fiscal year 2012, a number that climbed to 151 in 2013, before dropping to 109 in fiscal year 2014. 

Instances of pepper spray use appeared to drop significantly in fiscal year 2015, declining to 30 instances of use, before rising to 49 instances in fiscal year 2016 and 56 in fiscal year 2017, which would have seen some overlap between Obama and Trump’s presidencies. In fiscal year 2018, CBP said there were 43 recorded instances of pepper spray use under Trump. CBP has not immediately responded to a request for records outlining why tear gas and pepper spray were used in instances recorded since fiscal year 2012. 

In a statement emailed to Newsweek, CBP spokeswoman Stephanie Malin said that more than 1,000 individuals who were part of the “so-called caravan” “attempted to cross illegally into the U.S. by breaching section of the fence and using vehicle lanes in and near the San Ysidro Port of Entry” on Sunday. “The group ignored law enforcement agencies in Mexico and assaulted U.S. Federal Officers and Agents assigned to respond to the situation in San Diego,” Malin said. 

The CBP spokesperson said that “in response to the assaults and to defuse this dangerous situation, trained CBP personnel employed less-lethal devices to stop the actions of assaultive individuals attempting to break into the U.S.“ Malin said that CBP had been “preparing for weeks” for situations like the one that unfolded at the border on Sunday. 

“We have seen the use of violence by members of this so-called caravan who have attacked law enforcement personnel in Guatemala, Mexico and now the U.S.,” the CBP spokesperson said. She said that the agency “takes Sunday’s employment of use-of-force very seriously,” adding that the agency “reviews and evaluates all uses of force incidents to ensure compliance with policy.“ 

While CBP has said that some asylum seekers threw projectiles at Border Patrol agents, striking some personnel, the faction that rushed the border on Sunday represented a small group of the thousands of asylum seekers currently waiting in Mexican border town Tijuana to make their asylum claims at the U.S. border. 

In a statement released by the Mexican government on Monday, Mexico’s interior ministry reported through the National Institute of Migration that 98 people were slated to be deported to their home countries in connection with “violent” behavior at the U.S.-Mexico border. Meanwhile, thousands of others face weeks, if not months of waiting in Tijuana to make their asylum claims in the U.S., with the San Ysidro Port of Entry only seeing around 100 claims or fewer processed each day.

Your fave would never.

America: Now at the point were its government is honestly debating if tear-gassing babies and toddlers is morally acceptable or not.

I do not know how this conversation ends.

But looking at the history books: One suspects. Not well. 

“Tear-gassing babies”

You say this as if they were directly targeting the kids and not the bum rush of hundreds trying to cross the border illegally after acting stupid:

Link

From the article:

“U.S. Border Patrol agents used tear gas to disperse hundreds of Central American Migrants in the Mexican city of Tijuana who made a rush for the border fence. as tension builds over the diminishing prospects for asylum seekers trying to enter the country.

Mexico’s Milenio television station showed dozens of people climbing the fence on the Mexican side of the border before they were turned back. Women and children were among those affected by the use of tear gas, migrants said.<——NO FUCKING SHIT 

The border patrol said it deployed the gas after several of its agents were hit by the projectiles.”

Here is my favorite part of this article:

“I felt that my face was burning, and my baby fainted. I ran for my life and that of my children,” Said Cindy Milla, a 23-year-old migrant who traveled from Honduras with her 10-month-old baby and four-year-old-son. “I learned my lesson and I’m now going to wait for asylum”

Like, are you kidding me? These idiots tried to cross the border illegally with their kids, putting them in danger and none of you motherfuckers are putting any blame on the parents? 

You can blame the bad bad orange man, border patrol and every single other person  you don’t like but the truth is it wasn’t them. It was the caravan themselves who asked for this and they got it.

Oh, and they are all now getting deported by Mexico for what they did by the way, so go ahead and cry and lie about that too while you are at it.

And no, I’m not defending kids getting gassed, before you go there. It fucking sucks but the ol’ saying “Play stupid games, win stupid prices” applies here like no other.

It’s on the parents who put them in danger.

A parent drags their kid into a dangerous situation and the kid gets hurt, it’s the parents fault, almost regardless of their reasoning for doing it.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they did what Pallywood does and push women and children to where they know the cameras will be.

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as
the Heart of God the Father.  He says: “Your President* is attempting to
resurrect the heart and soul of your nation** after eight long years of
its passion.  There are those whom are still calling the heart of this
great nation back to Calvary.  The ones behind this mass migration***
are part of the passion revisited.  We will not linger at the foot of
the Cross by welcoming unknown masses into this country.”

“The Church is in the midst of its passion.  I am counting on the
Remnant to assist her in carrying her cross, not unwillingly, but
willingly.  The Remnant must stand vigil at the foot of the cross
together with the Holy Mother,**** who is the Matriarch of the Remnant
Faithful.  She mourns as She witnesses the many ways the true Faith is
blasphemed – always in the guise of good.”

“Be united, O Man of Earth, behind your President and in the Remnant Faithful.  Your future depends on it.”

traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as
the Heart of God the Father.  He says: “Children, these days your
nation* is preparing to protect your southern border from the assault of
thousands** who are seeking asylum.  This is justified, as national
borders must be protected.  The boundaries of your heart must be
protected, as well.  It is only the soul that can do this.  There is no
military action that can defend what the heart accepts as Truth.”

“Whatever the heart believes in, is spilled out into the world
around him.  The soul who accepts My Will is protecting his heart from
extremism.  He will not become radical in thought, word or deed.  My
Will desires to protect the boundaries of your heart.  If you allow it
to be so, you will not be misled by liberalism – your life will be a
reflection of My Will.”

“Do not seek to impress others, seek to please Me.  Stand as an
example of obedience to My Divine Will – My Commandments.  This is your
defense in any attack or challenge – then the borders of your heart will
be protected from any onslaught from the enemy.”

As you join Me in this effort, ask their intercession in prayer towards the victory of righteousness in the upcoming midterm election and the intended influx of people into your country.* Prayer changes events and hearts. The evil one tries to hide this from you, thus discouraging your deeper prayer.”

“Surrender these two very important issues to Me, your Loving Father. In your surrender, is My Strength and My Victory. Certainly, if I can part the sea,** I can change hearts to support the Truth and the good that Truth stands for. I can influence man’s free will, and I will. Trust in My Will in these issues to be carried out. Allow this trust to influence your prayers. Your trust is My weapon to attain victory. I thank you in advance for placing the weapon of your trust in My Hands.”

Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as the Heart of God the Father. He says: “Children, I come, once again, to help you understand the difficulties that this sea of humanity* approaching your southern border** presents. It is a political issue, as well as, a spiritual issue, that needs to be dealt with. This is over and above the physical problems of these poor people. It is not, and never has been, in the best interest of these destitute people to migrate here, let alone the best interests of your country.”

“Politically, this will be held against Mr. Trump in his attempts at re-election. Spiritually, this mass of humanity is bringing with them spirits hostile to salvation. This is a threat which will threaten lives and souls. There is nothing positive about this mass migration which was encouraged by evil intent. It appears to be a humanitarian good, but it is really a humanitarian disaster by a selfish few seeking power.”

“Pray against this evil attempt at grabbing power beginning with this upcoming election and centering on the dissolution of your southern border.”

Warnings and Exhortations

But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; they said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” It is these who set up divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit; keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And convince some, who doubt; save some, by snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

You do not have to walk hundreds of miles to reach it. All you need do is will it and all I have is yours. My Love and My Mercy assist you in accepting all that the present moment offers you." 

"I do not come to you with false promises of a better life if you unlawfully trespass boundaries into another country. Every nation has its identity in its borders. These boundaries must be respected. I do not encourage you to break the law. It is evil that lures you away from the reality of the Truth. The Truth is, legal borders do not waver or change to accommodate masses of misled people. The better life you seek is union with My Will."
