Fleeing Violence, Eh?

Now the truth comes out....
Two groups of Central American migrants marched to the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana on Tuesday with a list of demands, with one group delivering an ultimatum to the Trump administration: either let them in the U.S. or pay them $50,000 each to go home, a report said. https://tinyurl.com/y8zayxz4

Or else..... what?

My response would be simple: Issue a call to all Americans who are willing and able to defend the border themselves. Issue them blanket permission to stop anyone who sets foot on American soil over a marked border (e.g. by climbing a fence or tunneling under one) by whatever means are necessary.

These people are not fleeing for "humanitarian" reasons. They're extortionists and extortion is a criminal felony.

In the context of international relations extortion is a casus belli.

Declare war against the US and then demand we pay you to stop it? I have a answer to that
