Subject: Puzzle for all you smart
people
Imagine you are a 3-year old to 8-year old
child. You are on your own without adults. You are asked to walk from
Houston, Texas, to Minneapolis, Minnesota, on your own with no food or
belongings to sustain you. Then you are asked to walk an additional 100
miles past Minnesota.
Could you do it?
· How long would it take you as a 6-year old?
That is the minimum distance these poor, helpless little ones have
supposedly walked from Central America to the border of Texas, again,
on their own. They didn't get lost.
· And they survived the journey without help
(unless you buy into the notion that a destitute out-of-work family,
run out of their homes by gangs, and living in squalor somehow came up
with $8,000 to $10,000 for EACH child to pay a coyote to take them to
the border).
Now, on the map above, you must start somewhere in the
green area.
Let's make it easy and start where green meets orange, so that you had
the least mileage by not having to cover the whole green area. Just
start where the green meets the orange. Blue, of course, is water.
· Your task is to figure a route from the
green area to the purple area without going into the blue area and
avoiding towns and cities in the orange area. The black line is the
distance from the nearest town to Mexico's southern border that touches
the green area to Laredo, Texas, one of the CLOSEST purple towns. 1,220
miles across desert and mountains with no equipment, food, or help.
· If orange had stopped these innocents where
orange touches green, problem would not have occurred. However, what
6-year old do you know who could walk 1,220 miles (minimum), probably
more like 1,500 miles, on their own without dying?
· How many days would it take for a 6-year
old to walk 1,220 miles without help, directions, food, sun protection,
etc.?
I don't
think the
whole truth is being given to us, folks…… Someone
created and assisted this, and the media should be figuring out who it
is.

My wife and I have been doing foster care for refugee's for years. Some from South America. I heartily recommend Which Way Home a 2010 documentary on the travels of these children. It is a surprisingly (mostly) even handed film. We've watched with foster boys in our home who indicate it is a very accurate depiction.
ReplyDeleteI believe it is on Hulu and Netflix.
