Shouting 'Mexico First,' Hundreds In Tijuana March Against Migrant Caravan

 

"We want the caravan to go, they are invading us," said Patricia Reyes, a 62-year-old protester, hiding from the sun under an umbrella. "They should have come into Mexico correctly, legally, but they came in like animals."

 

Demonstrators held signs reading "No illegals," "No to the invasion" and "Mexico First." Many wore the country's red, white and green national soccer jersey and vigorously waved Mexican flags. The crowd often slipped into chants of "Ti-jua-na!" and "Me-xi-co!" They sang the national anthem several times.

 

Tijuana's mayor hasn't helped ease tensions over the migrant caravan.

 

"I would dare say that not all of them are migrants," Mayor Juan Manuel Gastélum said last week in an interview with Milenio television, suggesting some members of the caravan were criminal infiltrators. "Sure, there are some good people in the caravan, but many are very bad for the city."

 

Gastélum said four alleged members of the caravan had been arrested for unspecified crimes.

 

"Human rights are for only upstanding humans," he said, creating a perverse turn of phrase in Spanish.

 

The Tijuana mayor has been seen sporting a Trump-style "Make Tijuana Great Again" hat.
