Border crossing shut down after 'large and unruly group' forms in Mexico
By Rafael Bernal - 07/01/19 04:06 PM EDT

U.S. authorities closed an international border bridge in El Paso, Texas, early Monday in response to Central American and Cuban migrants protesting on the Mexican side of the border.

The protesters in Ciudad Juárez were chanting "vamos a cruzar" — "we are going to cross" — before Customs and Border Protection officials closed the bridge about 2 a.m., reported CNN.


The decision to close the bridge came as "a large and unruly group formed on the Mexican side," according to CBP spokesman Roger Maier.

Local TV station KTSM reported the group was comprised of about 250 Cuban and Salvadoran migrants; Ciudad Juarez newspaper El Diario reported the group was comprised of Cubans and Hondurans.

Why Trump has not closed the border to all but commerce and those with legal documents is a mystery to me.

Close the border -- forever.
Build the wall.
Repel border invasions with sufficient force to stop the invaders.
If that means injuries or death to the invaders, so be it.
