Just a few decades ago, Hollywood celebrities would be praising Venezuella about how great their socialist system was working, now the country is a mess.

Any country, Russia, China, No. Korea, Iran can invade this country and take over as long as they don't carry guns. I'm not sure if anything would even be done if they were.

They look overweight, they sure don't look emaciated to me.\nThey also look clean, where were they taking showers?!\nThey are supposed to come to The FIRST SAFE COUNTRY, NOT THE THIRD, or THE COUNTRY THAT GIVES THEM THE MOST FREELOADING STUFF!!\nJust amazing ,What COUNTRY is Ever Going to Help Americans like this?!\nThe answer is NONE, Americans would be Shamed, and Attacked if we tried to live off of another countrie's Taxpayers!!

But they would live in black countries happily and receive no form of racism. Evil people

Why would someone want to leave their country?! I was born and raised in California, USA and I would never want to leave...TF!?

They should do this in their own country.\n\nThis is happening because of the incompetence of the hateful/ incompetent president that we have right now in the United States. If he cared about the American people this would not be happening. May I add that I am not against people coming to the United States but it should be done legally.

I bet you this invasion would not happen on the Russian border or China's border or North Korea border because these countries won't put up with a invasion of there borders like the United States I love my country but the United States is weak since Joe Biden got put in the white house

This is an invasion, if this was any other country we would use deadly force. Why does Mexico get away with it

I've never been to Canada [I have a Nigerian friend who did but he couldn't stand the cold so moved to Europe instead] but if you hate it that much then move to Africa.\nJust make sure you move to the right part because I have a lot of friends who won't talk to each other, because they are from the wrong country [Cameroon seems to be hated in particular] or the wrong tribe. But they ARE all from Africa [a continent I would like to revisit although as I don't like the heat I suspect I'll never make it there]. But there are many from different parts of Africa here - north, south, east, west and central - and while many don't get on with each other they do get on with the locals.

This would never be allowed in any country, so why should we pay the price. No room, no more handouts. Stop luring people with cash incentives. The crime rate is excessive now due to lawlessness of the new transplants. I can’t even go to the grocery store in peace because of the loud outbursts from people don’t even speak English. Name any country that would put up with Americans coming into their country hanging the American flag in a their country, and not learning the language spoken by the people of their country. Disrespectful! Welcome to our self caused invasion and takeover, compliments of our supposed to be leaders.

Border Patrol has M-4's in inventory. A couple mags burned up using blanks would probably turn them back. If not. Cs/cn gas fogger. Stinger grenades. 40mm rubber buckshot rounds. Allowing this means we have no country.

If I was the people's home country's leadership, I would question why my people desperately wanting to leave? Crazy how some United States citizens are relocating to the countries they are leaving.

Being a Veteran (combat) who loves his country more than anything is now completely embarrassed by our leadership.\n\nBoys, girls, they, them and whatever else it is you would like to be respectfully addressed as,\nGet it together PLEASE!!!

ANY OTHER COUNTRY would call it an invasion and there'd be bodies in the ground. They have no RIGHT to enter and should NEVER BE ALLOWED

The hell with this…break out the tear gas and rubber bullets. Show these aholes they just can’t shove their way into OUR country! I feel for the people that were born into bad situations, but that’s not all this is! Like or hate his personality, our true president would have had most of the immigration system and problems fixed by now….assuming The Far Left Democrats didn’t keep slowing him down. Are there any non far left Democrats left anymore?

Wow! That was wild. Here in San Ysidro everything was calm and actually civil. People waited their turn. I live nearby so I saw it with my own eyes. People at las Americas outlet would pass by food to them and the officers gave them the food. I was an immigrant 35 years ago I am now a us citizens and although I love the USA, I will always remember the struggles I had to go through. The hunger, the injustice, the reject and the cultural assimilation, learning a new language, and work work work until I couldn’t no more. All those efforts paid off and I believe EVERYONE has a right to have a better life. I have family members in Canada and Europe who are also immigrants and also go through these struggles. If they don’t make it to the USA, I hope the Mexican government takes advantage of this immigration influx, after all, the USA is great because of us. It’s time other countries take advantage and advance as well ??

If Murica didn't destabilize Latin countries and empower them to establish industries in their own countries, they would have the need to leave.

Just think of what they would do to you in they're beautiful country or eachother for that matter. Don't fix your country run like a coward from it? Not the citizens a country needs.

*I guess no one is mentioning the most absurd fact here: THESE PEOPLE ARE FROM VENEZUELA!!!?? Venezuela is 2700 MILES and TEN COUNTRIES AWAY from El Paso! That means that 100% of these people are not asylum seekers nor refugees, they are economic migrants and have ZERO right to even attempt entry in to America legal or otherwise, as they have traversed across 10 SAFE COUNTRIES where their asylum needs were met. And starting off the first seconds of your entry in to a host country by molesting its National sovereignty and disregarding its laws makes you a scum fuck who doesn’t deserve to be here. If you really needed asylum, you would go to the next safe country. The moment you are safe and choose to go further, is the moment you are no longer a refugee or asylum seeker, but a greedy selfish chooser pretending to be a beggar. The irony is, america takes in MORE LEGAL MIGRANTS THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY ON EARTH AS IT IS. The only people who benefit from our failing immigration system/border are the elites who get an unending supply of cheap labor to throw in to whatever thresher they need filled, and the illegal aliens themselves who just want money and don’t care whose society they have to stomp on to get it. And all it costs is basic rule of law, functional governance, a loss of fairness on the part of legal immigrants, clogged up systems for genuine refugees, and the native working class of America have to compete with foreigners for low skilled jobs and their taxes get siphoned off with every illegal migrant that enters the nation. Somehow no one in politics has the stomach to do mass deportation nor border defense, hmm I wonder why? (Looks over at elites’ thresher) If you are from Venezuela and claiming to be seeking asylum at America’s border, WHILE STANDING IN MEXICO where you could seek asylum and choose not to, then you’re a liar and a piece of shit. These hordes of fighting age men raping my country make Trump look better and better by the moment. Sincerely, a left winger whose tired of this fuckery.*

Look at all these hard-working people were trying to turn away. I would let them all in. We have a labor shortage in this country

I say that we line up the women and all the single men in the country can go down to the border to find women to marry. \n Latin women are amazing and a heck of a lot better than 90% of the women that are currently in the country. \n\n Women who travel to the border are in most cases abused on the way... if we just leave them at the border like that then they will likely be abused even more. \n\n This would help them as well as the men in this country. \n If/when they have kids ... it would increase the population . \n\n\n Let in the women ... but only the women who know they are women and weren't born as males.

Need stun grenades and tear gas get them under control this is invasion no other country would put up with this. Classless migrants no respect for our country and laws impeachment of Joey, Harris and M-a-y-o-r-k-a-s immediately .

Several AR’s would stop this shit !! Go back to your country and do this to your own corrupt government.

I would never visit Europe, Canada, South America, or Asia because of anti-black racism. The only places I would visit are the African continent, Haiti, Jamaica and Barbados. I keep telling myself and others not to visit European and Asian countries because they don't like black people. And yes it's their culture: anti-black racism. I would never go where I'm not welcome or wanted.

WOULD you recommend a country where BLACK people can LIVE without dealing with RACISM. I was born in Trinidad, and I have LIVED in Canada since 1968. With ALL of your WISDOM, please TELL me where I can GO to avoid RACISM. Every country has problems, YOU must MAKE your own CHOICE. YOU are either STRONG or YOU are WEAK. If YOU have GOALS and DREAMS, then YOU must go and fulfill them wherever the road takes YOU.

These are not “huddled masses yearning to breathe free”. These are not refugees. These are entitled invaders from all over the world, and they’re behaving exactly the way I thought they would- like animals. Refugees are supposed to stop in the next safe country they come to. That’s not what’s happening here.

I AM ALONE AND ISOLATED. BLACK PEOPLE HATE ME IN THIS COUNTRY AND WHITE PEOPLE CAN SEE THAT. PLEASE DO NOT PISS THEM OFF BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED. ESPECIALLY SINCE BLACK PEOPLE TREAT ME AS IF THEY ARE DISGUSTED AND ANNOYED WITH ME. SOMETHING COULD HAPPEN AND NO ONE WOULD CARE AND NO ONE WOULD KNOW. WHYTE PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN LESS FRIENDLY IN RECENT YEARS SO THEY ARE BEING LESS SNEAKY WITH IT WHICH ISNT A PROBLEM. THEY SEE HOW WE TREAT EACHOTHER. WE ARE SHOWING THEM HOW TO TREAT US BY MISTREATING AND OSTRACIZING EACHOTHER

The situation looks bad in Venezuela and I see the desperation in some of these people's faces. At the same time we can't just allow mass imigration like that into the country. There are laws and regulations that need to be followed. If we were to just allow a mass immmigration in like that without properly going through the immigration system there would be chaos to follow. It is also a slap in the face to those who have gone through the proper process and have waited years to get through legally.

Don't understand why blacks would want to go to western countries.

What would happen to us if we did this at another country's border? Sure wouldn't get free cell phones and directions for a free place to go

Imagine if this many Americans tried to rush another country's border depending on what country we would potentially get gunned down and it would be seen as invading a country and possibly an act of war depending on if it was this many Americans entering like this. Or would they put us in shelters and feed us?

I have spent significant time in Calgary, Vancouver, and Victoria and was stunned by how much less white racism I encountered than anyplace in the US. \nWe had car trouble out in the country, and white guys stopped to help us out. If it had been in the US I would have been prepared to fight, judging by the way they looked. This woman's story is very subjective and personal. It is just her story.\nI know two retired Black men, both engineers, who spent their careers in Edmonton.

Oh dear God, in just about every other country in the world THEIR Police would be MOWING THEM DOWN WITH RAPID FIRE! \nOk Americans YOU OWE THEM EVERYTHING YOU WORKED FOR! Hand them your money… you privileged pos! Yep open those doors cause we owe them OUR HOMES! \n\nTHANK A DEMOCRAT FOR THIS! \n\nYour money? What you worked your whole life for? HAND IT OVER! HOW FUCKING DARE YOU THINK YOU DESERVE TO KEEP WHAT YOU WORKED SAVED ESRNED AND SACRIFICED BLOID SWEAT AND TEARS! \n\nIf this was Ukraine or North Koreans? Yes. \nThese people have better phones than I do! They just now demand A FREE RIDE! \n\nAmerica is fucked

There are 196 countries on earth and as someone who has studied Art History and Anthropology I plan on visiting all of them. Why? Because there are too many videos of black people all over the world who have been either born in those countries or are expats and moved there and they show how happy they are and how life abroad is better than America. Also, I have noticed that both SYSBM/Passport Bros and Black Women Divestors have been getting alot of pushback discouragement from traveling or moving overseas. I think I know why. See, if the majority of black people (men and women) were to leave the U.S. in more than 50% that means that they would be taking their $1.24 Trillion dollar buying spending power with them along with their tax dollars and despite the racism here in America the elites want to keep us here for monetary reasons. I truly believe that their is a hidden agenda to keep blacks stuck here in America by any means necessary and I don't buy it.

We have got to treat them like every other country would treat people trying to invade their country illegally

This is not immigration. This is an invasion. Look at the people rushing the border. In any real country that respects its own sovereignty, this would be repelled by force.

any other country would shoot you if you crossed the border by force...

When is enough enough? I pay taxes and now our state is cutting back on services to pay for illegal migrants . Local agencies are being told to cut back, ran out of space to house illegal migrants but administration is still looking for more space......... When is enough enough? Maybe we should start allocating resources to find out WHY. BILLIONS to send probes into space but basically squat to prevent our boarder agents from being overwhelmed. \n\nDoes any of this make sense. I dislike tRump with a passion, he is a CANCER to this country but he would not let this happen. He'd send the military down there and wouldn't give a flying you know what anyone has to say.

Why would they fight to live and work in their own country when they can get everything free here and not have to obey any laws!

Other countries would just know em down

It would have been great if the Indigenous community kept illegal immigrants out of the country 400 years ago.

Maybe if USA didn’t sanction Venezuela and ruin their economy the Venezuelans would go back.\n\nIf USA doesn’t want immigrants than don’t ruin those countries and let them become great in their own way

If they would have been this passionate with these numbers in Venezuela, they may have been able to change their country for the better, and stayed. I live in EL PASO. I didnt know this happened. It's now 8:40am on Sunday. So i guess this was last week. ??‍♂️ Last Sunday. ? Sorry people. But you Cannot Bumrush the United States! Aint Happening. ?????

If only all these migrants would organize like this to make their countries better

If America would stop interfering with other countries causing chaos then the borders wouldn’t be overrun. Stop putting sanctions on these countries causing the ppl to starve then we wouldn’t have this border crisis. If our government focused on us we would be better off. Charity begins at home before helping abroad

There are a number of other countries that would just mow them down with machine gun fire.

Imagine whole South-America would move to the US suddenly? What you would do? You liberals still would say everything is fine these people need to be accepted and helped in the name of tolerance? I never understand how these idiots think it is possible to let in unlimited people in a country just to look tolerant and gaining extra social credit points.

For all you little snowflakes who are mad about these people supposedly being abused, keep in mind that in almost every other civilized country with secured borders, people trying to violently force their way across would be shot and killed or at the very least, imprisoned and deported. Unless your willing to let a migrant family live in your house with you, you should probably shut up and mind your business. Funny how these illegals have rights and deserve to be here only up until the point that you have to sacrifice something.

MARSHALL LAW... some other countries would shoot them.

Our forefathers fought and more importantly died to get rid of the tyrants in our country. These people are unwilling to do the same which means they are not worthy of Americanship. If all of the millions and millions upon millions would coalesce into a fighting force men and women together they could flood and overwhelm the tyrants in their own country and created a place where perhaps after a while they could become a player on the world stage. They want to stow away not having paid for their passage to the very land that demands our own blood sacrifices to maintain. We send our young ones to the military some die some are maimed....and they are blessed heroes for it. These people have no desire to fight for liberty therefore they deserve none.
