Um.. the military's Commander in Chief just told them to...
Yeah the same guy who thinks he can change the constitution with a pen.
They cant fire on refugees. They know that even if their moron in chief doesnt.

Rules of engagement differ when on US Soil remember this is NOT overseas
Mexico is not US soil.
It is not.
Which would mean that firing on people on Mexican soil would be an act of war.
Our military will not fire on refugees, it's just a whistle to rile up those who actually wish that would happen.
And it would be against the Constitution and illegal for them to operate in such capacity on US soil, with an ally neighbor, in peace time.
He's just pandering to the ultra-right.

The people in that scenario being fired upon are not citizens of Mexico. So dunno why it would be an act of war against Mexico.
Or perhaps you don't think that our President can make a call to Mexico's President in advance...
It isn't against the constitution at all and is not in any way illegal for them to follow the orders of their CIC in reguards to national security.
I'm not saying it's going to happen at all, I've just playing devil's advocate and thinking it through.

They cant shoot even if they get hit with a rock. They cannot do what trump wants you to believe they can.
And no they are not defending our country because we are not at war with these people. They are not agressors invading even though the idiot keeps saying that. Hes lying. And some people are lapping it up like a cat and a bowl of cream.

Because them not being Mexicans does not preclude them from being human. Any human on the soil of a country is generally under the protection and the jurisdiction of that country.
Our forefathers even thought of putting that into our Constitution. Any person on our territory, whether citizen or not, has the same human rights, legal rights and so on.
So firing on those people, regardless of their citizenship would be an act of war. Hope that helps.

Didn't help at all because not only are you wrong, you yourself point it out by pointing out that it is not a part of our Constitution.
This isn't something I want or hope for... it would be horrible.
I'm just pointing out that the President has the right to do so.
Have a nice day...
