MSM Is Very Excited By The Number Of Terrorists Who Were Caught Crossing The Border

Apparently, we’re supposed to be celebrating this as excellent news.

NBC is super excited to report that US Customs and Border Protection encountered *only* six suspected terrorists illegally crossing the border from October to March. Only six!

NEW: US Customs and Border Protection encountered just 6 immigrants on US-Mexico border in first half of fiscal year 2018 whose names were on a federal government list of known or suspected terrorists, according to CBP data obtained by @NBCNews. https://t.co/MKIXQdoX26

“Just.”

U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered only six immigrants at ports of entry on the U.S-Mexico border in the first half of fiscal year 2018 whose names were on a federal government list of known or suspected terrorists, according to CBP data provided to Congress in May 2018 and obtained by NBC News.

The low number contradicts statements by Trump administration officials, including White House press secretary Sarah Sanders, who said Friday that CBP stopped nearly 4,000 known or suspected terrorists from crossing the southern border in fiscal year 2018.

First of all, these are only the suspected terrorists they actually encountered. Who knows how many actually crossed and escaped. Secondly, this is still SIX TOO MANY.

I wonder how many many terrorists entered undetected?

That is the question.

That’s 6 that we know of. The fact that terrorists see the border as a way in is reason enough to build the wall.

“Just” isn’t a word that a reputable news org would use.

And how many did it take to bring down the twin towers? “Just” 18? How many does it take to run down dozens of people on a crowded street? “Just” 1.#FakeNews #MediaBias

Would you say there were just, only, eight (8) mass shootings in the US in the first half of 2018, or can we agree 8 is 8 too many, just like 6 terrorists.

6 terrorists were on AA flight 11 on 9/11, 5 on flight 77, 5 on 93 and 5 on flight 175. So what fn point are you idiots trying to make.

How pathetic is it to use *only* 6 terrorists as a way to try to own Trump?

Five (5) hijacked flight 11. The WH is completely full of shit but maybe do yourselves a favor & don’t trivialize that as “just 6”.

Build the freaking wall already.
