Breitbart – by Tony LeeMexican officials will reportedly speed up “The Beast” to deter migrants from hopping on and off.
Thousands of migrants have risked life and limb by jumping on “The Beast,” the so-called “Death Train” or “La Bestia,” in Southern Mexico to begin what they hope is the final leg of their journey to the U.S.-Mexico border. As Breitbart Texas has reported, children who have tried to jump on “The Beast” have lost arms and legs.
In recent months, “La Bestia” has even derailed, stranding thousands.
“The idea is to refurbish the railway and to make investments … so that also the speed of the train can be increased and then the likelihood of people climbing (on or off) the train will be largely diminished,” Sergio Alcocer, “Mexico’s deputy foreign minister responsible for the United States and Canada,” told Reuters.
Mexico was scheduled to revamp its southern railroads by 2018, according to Reuters, but that may get accelerated due to the migrant crisis.
In the meantime, Mexican authorities are starting to raid areas where migrants are known to hop on the freight train. According to Reuters, Javier Soto, an unemployed migrant from Honduras who has tried to sneak into the United States before, “and fellow migrants,” were taken by surprise by “pickups carrying immigration agents and police” in Mexico, “sending them running off into the night.” They were attempting “to hitch a ride on the train in Arriaga.” It was reportedly the “second raid there in under a week.”
Someone should de-rail the beast, because they’re only speeding it up to deliver more of them.

Oh by all means, don’t stop it or anything, especially when it is completely filled with illegal immigrants/criminals. No no! Speed the damn thing up and bring them in to the country. (Sarcasm)
Unfrigginbelievable………..
Mexico should be bombed back to the stone age for what they are doing. It’s just unfrigginbelievable. They’re aiding and abetting an invasion and helping to overthrow our country and we are just standing there and letting it happen with no military invasion of their country. This world is so upside down, it’s not even funny.

They can still be used as rafts to cross the river.
Sickeningly true. lol
I WAS being facetious, as well as cynical, in a callous, sick sort of way, NC.
But one can only take so much of this PLANNED invasion bullsh#t before one starts hoping for very bad things to happen to these illegals.
And even worse things for the planners (goes without saying, actually, since that’s ALWAYS been a given).
FAR worse things.
so they will just run faster..so the illegals we end up getting here will be the fast ones than eh?
