“Go back! Go Back! This is not a port of entry.” Brownsville, Texas enforces the border

Texican standoff: Inside the only border spot where law is enforced (nypost.com)

“There on the 45-degree Texas riverbank, a line of some 50 immigrants, many with babies and small children, stood immobilized in their tracks, from the razor wire at the top of the steep bank all the way down into the water. At the top, a coterie of Texas state troopers and National Guardsmen, all slung with weaponry, blocked their forward progress.

Some of the uniformed men were arguing with the immigrants at the highest point, while others shouting down to the rest while pointing back at the Matamoros bank, “Go back! Go Back! This is not a port of entry.”

“Some who’d made it to the mid- and upper bank began tacking right along the silver coils of razor wire, looking for an alternative opening. But the soldiers and state cops proved relentless in mirroring their lateral movement. It didn’t matter how far the immigrants went, the soldiers synced along their side of the wire.”

“Eventually, the entire group had no choice but to either sleep on the 45-degree steep, weed infested embankment with little food or water and no shelter, or return to Mexico, which is what they all did.”

So, that’s all it takes – as opposed to flying them into cities, throwing out paying hotel guests or students from college dorms – “who’d have thunk (sic) it?”
