(Washington, DC) -- President Trump says rocks thrown by migrants will be considered firearms by U.S. troops at the southern border.
Trump said Thursday that some members of the migrant caravans headed to the U.S. border are very bad people who throw rocks, and that some Mexican troops were badly injured by rock-throwing migrants.
He warned that U.S. officials will liken rocks to firearms if it happens at the U.S. border. Trump has deployed several thousand troops along the southern border in preparation for a migrant caravan which is still weeks away.
