Appears to be a good deterrant. Legal immigration applauded, illegal must be stopped.

Is this trumps great wall The million $ WALL

7 IV THAYR ON MEDYKAYD, THAY ZSHEWD B KUVERD! 😎

newschannelnine Who cares? Send them back

Trespassing is dangerous. A person can really become injured by trespassing!

Stupid

Totally avoidable if you stay home. If u climb a high fence u may fall. If u fall u may get hurt, and with this case arrested and then deported. Btw the US does deport them still injured and many have serious health problems when they get sent back.

TheThomasGuide That's two Democrat voters that made it

TheThomasGuide The wall they will build you can't climb

Lol

Those are the Mexican intellectuals

If we did what I just watched to THEIR COUNTRIES FENCE then I would be taken straight to JAIL! When can we start using our common sense before our Country is so diluted it will NEVER be the same. God bless America!

Who gives a Shit. I don’t.

Four broken ankles. Beautiful sight.

Hopefully they were arrested and sent back shortly

Idiots

I guess taxpayers will pay for the medical visit

So the wall really doesn’t work!

Great, now we have to pay to medically treat these idiots.

mediacritizer catapult required

We need to declare martial law against these parasitic invaders. All you need to do is make an example out of one of them.

A bit of barbed wire at right spots and this all could've been prevented

QUEDENSE EN SUS PUEBLOS CON LA FAMILIA Y AMIGOS AQUI NOS LOS HAY.

Instant karma.

SOOO, WRONG TO COME TO THIS COUNTRY BELIEVING IS THE ANSWER, IS NOT. STAY HOME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS, NO MATTER WHAT. HERE U CAN GET MATERIAL THINGS, NOTHING ELSE.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes. Glad we get to pay for these future harvard graduates.

A wall could still be effective to an extent but the best way to keep illegals out is to end anchor baby laws and make it impossible for illegals to receive any tax funded entitlement

What exactly is a 'better life' for them here? Some of these women end up as prostitutes in the u.s.

they just want to escape what the fuck is wrong with ya'll

OrangeSquidChan Got to say, a lot of my fellow Americans posting here are pretty disgusting. They believe teens who are fleeing for their lives and get hurt in the process don’t deserve a shot at life. And you’re probably Christians, the irony of you spitting in god’s face isn’t lost.

broken legs makes for easy deportation

Ha ha🖕🏾

7 Go back

And still they come!

Build the wall and a moat

Yep. Don’t do that.

To bad they got hurt!! Stop coming here we don't want Y'ALL

t0lerantparad0x Aaaaand?

walldumbass

The wall has to be higher. This nonsense needs to stop!

newschannelnine So sad, my heart breaks for them.

and this is what Pelosi and schummer want....

TheThomasGuide Breaking the law sucks, huh?

7 Jim Acosta said this wouldn’t happen!

Why are those in countries that are geographically close to the US have more of a right to come here than those from say, African or Asian countries? Get in line and do it the right way.

Wow, they really are here to steal, infect, rape & murder (like Trump said) at any cost, even at the cost of their own personal injury. & some we think (like Trump said) may be nice ppl actually fleeing countries with no jobs, high crime or persecution, early deaths...some.

This is a staged video for Trump fight for border wall, or fence.

7 WOW. That is nuts!!ouch

👍👍

Desperate people! Sad!

aaaahhhh don't jump from high places you might get hurt

How's that Wall working out , trump!

Apparently Guatemalan teens are stupid.

But these people can't afford rope I don't understand don't break a bone.

Were these two terrorists. Ask Rep. Roger Marshall

No sympathy for them

Maybe don’t do that

Criminal entry. Lock them up.

ABC News has posted this a million times HOPING to get SYMPATHY for such STUPIDITY!~

WKRN Send them to Alyssa_Milano house for rehabilitation.

Awesome only 8 more to go today

Canyon fix stupid. Hurt and going back, try it legally

Sure looks like the first few accounts on this thread are run by 1 left leaning propagandists pushing the 'feel sorry for the illegals' narrative. It's over. We see through the charade.

7 Dummies!

7 As long as pueblo sin fronteras keep bringing people from central america, the flow of illegals will not stop. They need to charge this group with human trafficking to see if they stop. Otherwise nothing will happen.

AND TAXPAYERS HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. Enough is enough. Legal or GO HOME. Build the wall!!!

WKRN Why isn’t sanctions put on these countries that are so bad to leave like this? There has to be another solution. 😪🍆

7 Just shoot'em, trespassing is trespassing! Unlawful entry may be an misdemeanor, but it's something that should be treated as an attack on US soil. People need to stop being so sensitive & soft. Just wait untell something happens to a love one. Wanna come in do it the right way!

good job border patrol. not only is the wall not preventing entry but it is causing injuries. Not only that you agent manhandling the migrant after they are injured is not good.

See! Perfect example of how the wall is not the answer. What’s wrong with drones, security cameras, small aircraft, lasers and other 21st century technologies?

Cue the sad music. Good one ABC 😐

Hahahaha! Too bad they didn't break their necks.

No one cares. They’re Welfare Moochers. Send them all back.

I don't agree with the way those people try to cross the border but they are human being and i don't think must of you understand how desperate some of those people are,they're real asylum seeker in the caravan.Please try to be human before everything else

Is this that wall trump has been building? Really working hahaha haha HaHa 🤣

7 This is sad but I don’t want to pay 50,000 each to send them back when they decided to come claiming asylum. And can’t help how long the process takes to admit them. But if they don’t like it they should return or become a citizen of Mexico.

America the land of opportunity

7 Lol

America is no't the heaven you think he is,they will depot you if you don't have good reason to seek asylum.Please think twice before doing so crazy act,democrats or republicans are the same they just used you to reach they goal.

Simple solution: stop breaking U.S. laws.

WKRN Not high enough I guess

Illegals are invaders so why have they not been treated as such. Use military weapons and this will immediately stop.

Invaders

So there’s a portion of the wall. And look people are still getting over. 5 Billion more to finish it, just so people have more places to scale it! DumpTrump

7 She should sue the country cause it was caused in and by USA soil.

Now she'll be limping to the welfare office after she gets pregnant and has 10 kids

Guess who is paying that hospital bill ?! americantaxpayer

7

WBAP247NEWS Duh, shouldn't having been jumping the fence! Big dummy, we don't need any more dummies here in the US!

7 This is why Democrats need to stop funding these migrants. It endangers them. People must come here LEGALLY, like MY FAMILY did.

I don’t want a damn wall. Instead, I want our allies to step up and also help these people. Send planes to the border (you know what I mean) and invite them to your country. Give us your tired and poor, but these days it takes time. Allies, step up and help!

Well guess they will be counted as terrorists since supposedly 10 per d at try to enter U.S. If the had video and were caught, how would putting up a wall instead of fence change this. Spend money on how to change and improve things that makes so teens don't need to flee.

He didn't even try to help break their fall.

7 I hope we bill their government for their medical care.

God knows what’s hunting them bad things could hunt you anywhere be glad you are not being hunted

C'mon. Get it straight. They're refugees, seeking asylum. However, the way DonTheCon has made it as difficult as possible for these folks to get into the US, via an established border crossing, I don't blame them for jumping over. Btw, just proves that barriers don't work.

7 Pop 'em in the noggin while on Mexico's side. It's Mexico's problem then.

Should be concrete and barbed wire at the end of that fall

Why didnt they seek asylum at the border entry? My family came here legally. My parents didnt throw me and my sister over a fence causing broken bones. I dont always support Trump, but I support his policy here and so do most immigrants.

well the fence didn’t work what makes us think a wall will work. There’s got to be a better way

Another case of no guns needed even though usa like usa people spend millions on home services keeping it safe, with out a gun. These people just broke in your back door. Most would shoot them. POTUS

I can’t imagine how terrible life must be to risk injury and arrest to escape those conditions.

Lock them UP !!!

😕What's with the music of misery?

🇺🇸Republicans....Take the 5 Billion from the military to build the wall....Then give Dreamers Citizenship without the Democrats. This will put the Dems on notice !!!!

They better walk it off. My $5 Chinese food isn’t going to cook itself.

7 this video is so hard to watch.. looks like she broke or sprained her ankle.. the pain from this is incredible. she probably went into shock...

It must be really fucking bad where they come from to risk everything to escape this way. I bet Americans would do the same if the situation was reversed.

Great. Now we have to cover their medical bills.

Send them all back

7 Oh well!!!

World´s worst catcher.

WKRN Toss their asses back over the fence!

Medical will be expensive. Will you report what it cost the tax payers for this illegal crap Just these alone. If condone ABC should be paying the medical.

They didn't think of bringing ropes?

Why don’t they fight for their own homelands? Why let the evil ppl who make them choose this option get away with it?

Who doesn’t feel bad for refugees? What ever you think about our laws is one thing, but how do we not help refugees. Maybe you guys should personally go to the border and tell these refugees NO in their face. Let’s see how that helps you sleep.

sendthemhome

I’m liberal and I support securing our borders, there is nothing wrong here with that. Fix the system and make everyone who wants to be here do so legally!

FOREIGN INVADERS need to be thrown back & since USA has a heart, they'll get patched up first. America is SICK of the world's arrogance of crossing OUR borders EXPECTING taxpayers to support them. CLOSE THE BORDERS until the WALL is built.

Low IQ.

Well, they made it into the USA and will receive the welfare they wanted

Another poor decision

Here's a solution! Please jump over head first...cleanup is cheaper than thier free medical attention. 'Go green' they would make good natural soil.

fakenews

Just what do YOU not understand about the word ILLEGAL ALIEN? Patch them UP SEND THEM BACK.

Is it time to take down the Statue of Liberty 🗽 send it back ? Regift it ?

newschannelnine Problem solved

Kindly take good care of them.

7 Cmon guysss at least fall to the other side

first girl needs to learn how to hang drop to a tuck roll. them ankles were done for the second she decided to dead weight fall.

Probably shouldn’t climb that fence..

What will happen if the US puts economic sanctions on Mexico as a way of demanding its government to understand why its citizens are having the extreme need to live in the US, a “greener haven.”

Do not waste our taxpayers money on these ILLEGAL ALIENS. Send them home for treatment.

WKRN

Hmm. That looks a LOT like a wall that they have scaled. So how exactly is a new wall going to prohibit entry? LaddersAndTunnels

Did someone hold a gun to their head and force them to jump ? Didn't think so...

These teenage girls that jumped from a 20 foot border fence still get to seek asylum in the US. A $25 billion wall is a waste!

Hahahahahaaaaaaaaa Hahahahahahaaaaaaaa Holy cow, can I get this on a loop running 24/7 ? This is hilarious. Only thing better would be if there were people there to toss them back over. No medical care here kids. Go home.

Why do these immigrants feel entitled to be in the US illegally? There are rules to follow and they need to understand that. If they don't follow the rules coming into our country then why would they follow them in our country?

7 It’s Trump’s fault! 😂

Too damn bad. News can pay their medical bills.

7 I thought Chuck and Nancy said a wall is ineffective?

Locked up these abusive adults!!!

Think about how all the danger they overcame to come here. These are the people who go on to make our nation great. Not the frat boy, born here, who got away with rape or the rich white kid who get off with a slap on the wrist after killing people while driving drunk.

I'm a dem but I'm sick to death of feeling sorry of undocumented people entering our country depleting our resources. Americans need those resources first. Just to name 1: Why would any vet be homeless? Shame on us!!

The desperation breaks my heart, they are risking their lives for a better one.

Let their country pay for their injuries. Deport them right away.

Just watching the hateful comments of people who don't see non-americans as human beings... hell is going to be a waay too good place for y'all

7 Honestly, that looks enough like a wall (rather than a fence) to suggest that a wall won’t work. NoWall

7 Shouldn’t have jumped the fence. Protect our borders!! Trump Buildthewall

PRESIDENT TRUMP! THE WOMEN AND CHILDRENS AT THE BORDER NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!

Why is my health care bills out of control? Jumping Guatemalans

WKRN Here's a tip: STOP TRYING TO ENTER OUR COUNTRY ILLEGALLY.

Hook up some Electricity to the Wall Why Not ? like the Cattle ranches do its effective.......

It's sad how they are willing to hurt themselves to get a better life. God knows what is going on in their lives. People don't just leave their countries.

The lack of compassion is what kills me most. I look at this and think about how horrific their lives must have been to choose this as the alternative; risking their lives and their safety. While others laugh and c/o tax dollars paying for their medical expenses. Humanity?

7 BuildTheWall or ShutItDown

That's the 2nd time FakeNews posts this footage. We're all sorry for the lady, but illegal immigration is still wrong!!!

7 walls work. keep showing this.

Now send them home

Call 911.

They couldn't bring a rope?

They better have given them medical treatment

Do these people have a brain?

Looks like the United States tax payer will be paying the medical bills.

Lucky for them they landed on the American side ... Where they’ll receive free medical attention at the taxpayer’s expense.

Did you see the DHS website with common Russian grammatical errors?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhaahha

They know better you don't Listen You Have To Feel get Lost …….

If pete and repeat this story posted daily two teens injured while committing a crime but liberal media wants empathy

This is what desperation looks like. Of course, Christians in America would simply kick these desperate souls in the teeth, then go to church.

Throw them back over. Her foot was most likely already broke. She just wanted to get in and go to a hospital.

Build the damn wall!

Just have the taxpayers pay for her medical attention!! Not like Americans need that!

Hahaha

Why don't they apply for Visa instead of doing this circus?

Wall ? What wall ? Trump says we don’t have a wall ! This video must be Fake News!

realDonaldTrump CBP Are we supposed to be proud of this? Seeing these people suffer? JerryFalwellJr You want your flock to cheer this?

Did ABC actually use the word 'illegally' are they starting to come around finally 🤣

Wait so there is a wall in place already yet he still thinks.....🤔 Nevermind.

“Illegally”? YOU RACISTS!!!!

Now we get to pay for their hospital bill and to house them until we can dump them back across the border. Great.

Fact Check: Trump claims credit for decades-old border structuresIf you look at San Diego, illegal traffic dropped 92 percent once the wall was up. El Paso, illegal traffic dropped 72 percent then ultimately 95 percent once the wall was up. In Tucson, Arizona, illegal traffic dropped 92 percent. Actually Trump never claimed credit. He simply stated some of the border wall has been already built, he never said recently, and he stated illegal immigration has been reduced in those areas. Both of those statements are true.
