Bummer: Illegals Falling From Wall Being Left In Mexico For Medical Care

If you attempt to climb a wall and fall off, whose fault is that? You shouldn’t have been climbing the wall. If you climb a tree on someone else’s property and fall out of it, is that the fault of the tree or property owner or your own?

‘This is a war zone’: Migrants wounded falling from Trump’s border wall being sent back to Mexico without medical help

A pastor who runs shelters in Mexico at the US border, has accused American border patrol agents of sending injured migrants back without providing them medical support, calling it a “new low” for the country.

Pastor Rosalio Sosa, who runs a network of migrant shelters at US-Mexico border, told Dallas News a shelter in Palomas gets about seven injured migrants per week and the situation there looks like that of a “war zone,” with number of injured piling up.

“This has become a war zone, with war injuries and no resources,” Ms Sosa was quoted as saying in the report. “But governments need to know that deserts, rivers, walls are no match for hunger.”

The “big, beautiful wall” built under former president Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign to stop the influx of illegal immigrants and drugs over the border is leading to crippling injuries to migrants attempting to cross the border amid worsening situation in the home country.

I understand that The Independent is a UK news outlet, but, could Shweta Sharma and their editor not have done a little research to realize that many parts of the border wall have been around for decades? That most of the border wall was already constructed. Under Trump, there were only about 5 miles of new construction, with around 300 miles being replacement and/or secondary walls. A lot was built under Bush 43, per actual federal law. But, hey, Trump Derangement Syndrome.

The migrants from Mexico, trying to flee the country amid political unrest and economic fallout, have alleged that they are being “dumped” back in “Mexico like garbage” without border security force providing them medical help, a claim that has been denied by the border patrol agency.

“Alleged.”

Pedro Gomez, who attempted to flee Guatemala in January, said his ankles were broken after falling from the wall and he had to crawl to the US border agent’s vehicle.

“I couldn’t even get up, so I crawled inside the migra [US Border patrol] vehicle”, Mr Gomez said, adding: “they dumped us in Mexico like garbage, a piece of trash.”

Just wondering, did the Dallas News and Independent demand proof from Pastor Sosa and the illegals like Mr. Gomez?

In response to the migrants and pastor questioning the ill-treatment, the border patrol agency released a statement rejecting the claims. It said the agents regularly encountered injured migrants and administered medical aid to those hurt.

“We routinely encounter injured people on the border, most of which are individuals that have entered the country illegally. When it is apparent that someone is hurt we will administer first aid and request assistance as needed,” El Paso sector border patrol chief, Gloria Chavez, said in the statement.

We’ve been treating the idiots who fall off the wall (and get in trouble like dehydration as they cross deserts) for a long time, and it often leads to some judge or politician releasing the illegals into the nation while awaiting their hearing, which they more often do not show up for. But, hey, don’t want to get hurt? Don’t climb a big wall.
