You know how there’s a massive migrant caravan (up to 7,000 people) making its way to the United States? Welllllllllll do I have some news for you. It doesn’t end there. There’s another migrant caravan right behind it. This one is currently comprised of 1,000 individuals. They’ve already made it from Honduras into Guatemala.
They are following in the path of a much-larger group, believed to number around 7,000, which was sheltering in the town of Huixtla, in southern Mexcio, overnight on Monday.
It is not clear exactly when or where the second group started their march, though it is believed to be somewhere near San Pedro Sula, where the first started.
Pictures from the second group show mostly young men being confronted by police as they walked into Chiquimula on Monday night.
The group, some of whom were accompanied by young children, waved Honduran flags as they marched.
STOP RIGHT THERE. If you’re fleeing an oppressive sh*thole country, why on EARTH would you wave the flag of your oppressors? Someone explain that to me. I’ll wait.
Guatemalan armed forces also arrived to keep an eye on the migrants as they passed through on their way to America.
Good job Guatemala. NO FOREIGN AID FOR YOU (say it like the Soup Nazi).
They are around 200 miles behind the first group, with at least 1,300 miles between them and the nearest US border crossing in McAllen, Texas.
This is NOT OK. You can’t have a country without secure borders.
