Thousands and thousands of migrants from Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador have arrived at the United States-Mexico border. The migrants are seeking to escape poverty and violence that they experience in their native countries. These migrants are looking for a better future for both themselves and their children in America. Some migrants even have goals of making enough money to send back to relatives back in their home countries. Trump has instructed military forces to travel to the border and use tear gas on the migrants trying to cross the border. Among the tear-gased migrants who have reached the border are many children.
The following tweets all contain #Caravan, however these ones support the migrants entering the United States:
Maybe I'm guilty of profiling, but this mom and her two kids in diapers being tear gassed don't look like criminals or terrorists to me. https://t.co/gm5blmwsJ2 #Caravan #CaravanInvasion #TearGassingChildren

I see a scared mother trying to protect her children. @realDonaldTrump sees a mobster who wants to start a fist fight.

Just when you thought the Trump administration couldn't get any crueler than caging innocent migrant children, they tear gas barefoot children in diapers. I am so proud to be an American. https://t.co/4yuGQUkN4b #Trump #TearGas #TearGassingChildren #Immigration #caravan #Mexico pic.twitter.com/h3stZ87Bnn

These next set of tweets are ones that do not show support in these migrants entering the United States:

An ungrateful Honduran Migrant complains about the free beans and tortillas being served in Tijuana, MX at the border. She calls it " PIG FOOD"… What does she expect ? A medium rare steak from Mastro's .. 😂

I don;t know about you, but I could live without Mexican imports or trips to Cancun for a while until Mexico deals with this #Caravan.#CloseTheBorder
