Thousands of Hondurans heading toward the US

[Vassenor]

So because a handful of people did something stupid they all need to be gassed?

If someone illegally breaks into a hotel and you follow them in, are you not held accountable as an accessory as well?

So even though the vast majority of them weren't trying to "follow them in", they all need to be gassed accessories?

[Ifreann]

They need to be in the US to claim asylum, so people trying to cross the border really do seem like the want asylum.

And I don't know why people are trying to say there was a riot. Well, no, that's not true, I do know.

Umm, yes, there was a riot. they surrounded the riot police, throwing things above their heads, i would call that a riot.

Tell me more about how the migrants surrounded CBP agents from the far side of a fence that they didn't get past. It sounds physically impossible.

if they were next to the border when they were breaking in, they got tear gassed, do you seriously expect the border control officers not to gas the people breaking in just because there are a few people standing around the people breaking in?

Perhaps you should try responding to what I'm actually saying, and not to what you want me to be saying.

To be fair, correct me if I'm wrong, but those appear to be Mexican Federal Police being overwhelmed in the above clip and not the CBP.

[Ccanda]

yes, it does seem to be mexican police, but never-the-less, whether they are or not, they are riot control officers being surrounded in a riot.

also i never said they were CBP

CBP is the ones that did the gassing though.

Yes, because there was a riot. whats your point?

Pretty sure nobody is denying that.....

Well outside of their jurisdiction.

[South Ccanda]

Well outside of their jurisdiction.

all these events occured near the border. i used the mexican police as an example of how they were violent and had violent intentions. they deserved to get gassed when they started swarming the border.

[Paddy O Fernature]

Well outside of their jurisdiction.

Actually, gas was deployed on the US side, and the wind carried it over to the Mexican side in the video that I saw. Which means that it was inside their "jurisdiction" to deploy. However, Mexico might have a case for unintentional contamination (or whatever it called) for it drifting, though I don't think it will go far for the lasting environmental impact is practically zero.

[Vassenor]

So once again because a handful of people did a thing they all deserved to be gassed, whether involved or not?

so once again, calling them a "handful of people" is a giant understatement.

I'm not the one trying to defend using chemical weapons on children.

That's not a riot, and I don't see any evidence of violence.

Neither am I, if you had actually read what i said earlier. "I do not condone the gassing of children, but i do not blame the officers, they were being rushed"

Its unfortunate that children were involved, but worse things could have happened. they could have pulled out beanbag guns and pelting people with those, or even worse, shooting with real guns. there are innocent bystanders in every riot, that doesn't mean you can discredit the whole riot.

Be a lot cooler if you did.

not every ting was shown, but the reporter states that rocks were indeed thrown at the officers. also they were actively pushing the police officers.

Trying to get by police officers isn't a riot.

Oh, so the stuff that proves you right was conveniently just out of shot so we just have to take your word for it.

may i ask how you would define a riot, in your own words, of course.

[Evil Dictators Happyland]

May I ask the same of you?

[South Ccanda]

I define a riot as any crowd of 10 or more people who use any means of violence (example: Pushing, shoving, fighting, throwing things, etc.) during any kind of protest.
