Not to mention, they don't mind leaving when a group of lefties fly down there and motivate them to come to this country with a bunch of promises that they can't keep.
Dont get me wrong though, the only ones I feel sorry for are the children and vulnerable women

Meh I like this one better.
I agree, the EU experience within the Schengen Area has been a disaster I'm glad Britain avoided with our border force being on the French and Belgian sides.

Only next? Why not take them up? And if next, who´s going to pay, the one that made that meme? Because, you know, they won´t be able to buy or rent a house.
The way they will finance "themselfes" will be social systems and doing work that isn´t taxed.
Have you not learned from europe?

So this meme is circulating on Social media. I've seen it at least a dozen times.
My question is, if migrants have so much fortitude to walk for 3 months for a "better life", why can't they use that energy to make their own country a better place?
Because those opportunities don’t exist in their country, at least not in the same way they do in America. You know, the whole land of opportunity thing.
Things have to be pretty bad to uproot your life and walk thousands of miles with your children for the slim chance that you might be able to get into America.

Why "can live next to me" ?
Why not "can live with me in my house with my own family" ?
Oh I know... That would be inconvenient...
I never realized how hollow that comparison is until right now. It’s not even close to the same thing. If anything, the meme in the OP is closer to the truth.

What's the ETA for when the caravan is supposed to hit the southern border?
I plan to watch it on the news. Going to be a crap show.

I heard a news report that many of the mothers that were separated from their children last go 'round, did not want them back. They flat out abandoned them, and our gov't agencies now have to take care of them and find them homes. Some mother!!
And don't tell me that that is what they had to do to give their child opportunity. I am a mother, and nothing short of starvation would cause me to abandon my child. And looking at the women in this caravan, none of them are starving in case you haven't noticed.
