“They want to throw rocks at our military, our military fights back,” Trump said. “I say, consider it a rifle.” President Trump said Thursday that he hopes the military troops being deployed to the United States’ southwestern border will not have to fire upon any migrants attempting to enter the country through Mexico, but warned that if any rocks are thrown from across the border “we will consider that a firearm.” https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-stoking-caravan-fears-says-troops-will-fire-migrants-throw-rocks-003953495.html |

Migration is Not by Force!! Trump Never said they will be fired! The Migrants submerged the Mexico soilders and passed through! Trump said the Same will not happen in the USA. 15000 soldiers have been deployed to Ensure the Migrants do not Come me in dt way!! The World Today is in Turmoil! If you don't defend your borders , it's Inviting Calamity and Castartrophe! 2 Likes |

He actually said they will consider stones as riffles, as fire arms. You can watch the video on instablog. |

bedspread: I hope you can see the parts where Trump was quoted verbatim? which I also put in bold for you? Asked if he envisions US troops firing on anyone in the groups of migrants, Trump told reporters at the White House: "I hope not. I hope not -- but it's the military." Related Article: Trump shocks with racist new ad days before midterms "I hope there won't be that," Trump said, but added that anybody throwing rocks or stones at the military service members will be considered to be using a firearm, "because there's not much difference when you get hit in the face with a rock." https://edition-m.cnn.com/2018/11/01/politics/trump-immigration-speech-asylum/index.html?r=https%3A%2F%2Fedition.cnn.com%2F I watched it myself yesterday when "The lead with Jake Tapper" was interrupted to bring Trump's speech live between 9pm and 9.45pm yesterday |

What does this have to do with us in Nigeria? Or is someone trying to equate border control with protesting Shiite members and the justification for the military shooting at them? 3 Likes |

bedspread: Trump can fire on helpless, poor, hungry and poor American immigrants but can't sanction his Sunni friends in the Saudi palace for the murder and disembowelment of Jamal Kashoggi? So you also have no problem with Nigerians seeking asylum in Italy, Germany and the rest of Europe if they're to be shot for being asylum seekers? 3 Likes |

shukuokukobambi: These people are not asylum seekers rather economic migrants. Mexico offered them welfare, schooling, training, healthcare and more which they blatantly refused. You can claim to be running from oppressive regime and yet flying the flag of the same country while heading to a less loved/friendly country. This is pure invasion. |

Soldiers are trained for outside aggressions not to kill their own citizens they are sworn to protect,, which is the case here...civil cases are handled by the police unless its more than they can contain, then the army steps in...

shukuokukobambi:you are pointless! Is Nigeria in war that you are seeking Asylum? There is a Legal way to seek Asylum? You don't just walk into a country? |
Re: Trump: Troops Will Fire On Migrants If They 'throw Rocks' by LadyExcellency: 12:41pm On Nov 02, 2018 |
shukuokukobambi: I thought you understood your initial comment. To refresh your memory, Trumps statements are "conditional statement" "IF" The simple truth is that nothing will happen "if" the supposed asylum seekers control themselves at the borders. They overpowered Mexican military by use of force which Trump is warning that US Soldiers wouldn't tolerate such bastardly act. Simple logic. |
Re: Trump: Troops Will Fire On Migrants If They 'throw Rocks' by shukuokukobambi: 12:43pm On Nov 02, 2018 |
bedspread: All what you said are nonsense. How do they justify Trump saying his soldiers will return bullets if they get stones from asylum seekers? |
Re: Trump: Troops Will Fire On Migrants If They 'throw Rocks' by shukuokukobambi: 12:45pm On Nov 02, 2018 |
LadyExcellency: You're being clever by half here. The Nigerian army claim they were pelted with petrol bumbs, stones etc by the Shiites hence returning fire. Now Trump, the leader of the Free world, says his soldiers will return bullets if they're pelted with rocks by migrants. Are you justifying him? Do you see nothing wrong with him saying he'll kill civilians as you've been screaming the Nigerian army did? 3 Likes |

shukuokukobambi: Please, stop comparing homeland security with foreign invasion. The citizens pay the soldiers salaries and cater for their welfare. The citizens got every right to protest and in no way can the citizens invade their own country - the difference is too wide for comparison. |

bedspread: Did you just learn the word 'racist'? Why this fixation on the word when my thread has nothing to do with it? What exactly is your problem? Even in Iraq that is still war, it's a crime to shoot at civilians so why are you afraid to call Trump out? Iis it acceptable to shoot civilian migrants? Do you see nothing wrong with it? CNN is feeding u with hate news and junks!! You should be more sensible than parroting what you hear some white Americans say. I quoted what Trump said in his televised speech which is the same thing those watching Fox news or other right wing channels saw. Abeg stop parroting that junk you hear 1 Like |
