an exodus

  The news was reporting on the incoming administrations immigration policy. That policy would be the immigration laws as they currently exist, the only thing different is they will be enforced. In the news story they showed this caravan now carrying signs proclaiming they are migrants, not criminals. They received the news of the election via their smart phones and tablets. Both of those items being necessary when fleeing for your life from drug cartels or when migrating. The reason they are migrating is there are no jobs in their countries, they are hungry and don't feel safe. At least one individual being interviewed was from Honduras. The shortest route from Honduras to Texas is over two thousand miles! That's quite a walk.

  I do have questions though, ones the main stream media seems to avoid or overlook completely. I wonder about the logistics of these caravans. Let's start with an obvious requirement, a place to go to the bathroom. Are all these people really just stopping behind a bush along the way? I mean , like in the movies those folks seldom have to go, I don't recall a single instance of any cowboys having that issue. That is pretty much what they did on a wagon train though so, ok, you're just going alongside the road. Where is all the food and water coming from? I haven't seen any pictures of any wagons or anything like that. Are they simply carrying everything in back packs, is that why they abandon those backpacks once they cross the border? I've seen pictures of a lot of trash along those routes. And for people fleeing because they have no jobs, no money and no opportunities they sure have a lot of electronics with them. Just how do they keep those phones charged and who is paying the bill? It ain't them, they're starving people struggling to survive.

  Ok, so you're fleeing oppression, dreaming of a new life in a foreign land, broke, desperate and walking over two thousand miles in the heat, the cold, the wind, the rain, battling climate change and prejudice. But, you stop along the way to make signs. Just where did those materials come from? Did you bring your poster board and markers along with you? You know, pack them just in case you needed to protest a bit along the way. That seems reasonable enough. It is certainly something I will add to my "preppers" list. Never know when you might need to protest. I guess it is likely when your plan is to enter another sovereign nation illegally and that nation starts to get upset about that. The signs saying, I'm an immigrant, not a criminal. Maybe I'll just carry a sign down to the bank, I'm just broke, I'm not a criminal. Maybe the bank will just give me some of that money. You know, undocumented like. 

  I'm not buying the notion that literally thousands of people, entire families with infants, decide to walk to America. No, that's not the case at all. There is something far more behind all of that, some group or groups enabling that to take place. It just doesn't make any sense. And no one dies along the way, no one falls gravely ill, and by the looks of things nobody is losing weight either! They are arriving in pretty good shape, all things considered. Amazing that the media seems to have turned a blind eye to those things, I certainly haven't heard much in that regard. And if they are not, why isn't that being talked about? Shouldn't the United Nations be concerned about all of that? What about the World Health Organization? Crickets from those groups. If the conditions are so bad, so tragic in those central American countries to warrant mass evacuations, why isn't the United Nations getting involved? I'm no mathematician but things just don't add up! There's something fishy in Denmark. 

                                                                           

                                                    they can afford spray paint and bed sheets though

        back packs, cell phones, food for a two thousand miles journey and designer shoes and jackets.
