French police have risked the lives of illegal migrants trying to cross the English Channel to the U.K. in small boats by using dangerous tactics, including puncturing boats and threatening migrants with pepper spray, several newspapers reported on Sunday.
A joint investigation by the Observer, Lighthouse Reports, Le Monde and Der Spiegel found that the French maritime police, which receives some funding from the U.K. government, has tried physically to force small boats to turn around to stop them from reaching Britain.
Footage, leaked documents and witness testimony obtained by the papers reveal that methods used by the police included puncturing boats so that illegal migrants had to swim back to shore, slamming into a small boat while threatening passengers with pepper spray and circling a boat, leading to waves flooding the dinghy.
The U.K. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has pledged to “stop the boats” from crossing the Channel and said he would pay millions of pounds to France for surveillance and border controls to stop illegal migrants from traveling.
French authorities have previously said they won’t intercept illegal migrant boats going to the U.K. — despite requests from the British government — because it contravened international maritime law.
One search and rescue expert quoted by the Observer said that a maneuver used by police — where a vessel is seen heading quickly towards the dinghy, before turning sharply to create waves — could cause “a mass casualty event.”

“The water is deep enough to drown in,” the expert told the paper. “I’ve seen this in the central Mediterranean many times, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen anything like this happening in the Channel.” Authorities in the north of France confirmed that a police boat had circled a dinghy in a bid to “dissuade passengers” from approaching the open sea, adding: “It’s the only time we’ve been able to intercept a small boat using this maneuver and it was a deterrent. All the illegal migrants were recovered and the smugglers arrested.”

>>1281346 >illegal migrants Just as in the U.S. the answer is to cut off any and all government aid to the illegal aliens but most importantly, prosecute employers and landlords who enable this mass economic migration.
If illegals can't get a job or a place to live, they'll go home on their own.

>>1281492 The answer is to put the military on the border and shoot anyone who tries to cross over.

>>1281653 Indeed, there are probably a dozen military bases within 100 miles of the border and we could lock it down overnight, at which point the immigration dept. cops could be tasked with arresting and prosecuting traitorous American employers and landlords who enable the illegal mass migration.
Again; no house and no job = they'll go home by themselves.
It's a LOT easier policing American employers and landlords, then chasing a bazillion Mexican peasants back and forth across the U.S.

>>1281653 Is there any problem conservatives don't think is solved by mass murder? Not mentioning that nothing about your solution is even remotely legal.

>>1281693 Well, if we're just putting aside that the only people who support this kind of thing are deranged right wing psychopaths and it would never even put up for vote, just nationally you'd have to amend the constitution. Its not even remotely legal to execute unarmed people crossing the border. You can't shoot people across the border in their country as you'd be killing people on Mexican soil. You can't shoot people who cross the border into the U.S. because any person in the U.S. is granted civil rights per the constitution. Internationally it violates somewhere near a half a dozen humanitarian laws. Its technically possible to make it legal with a complete overhaul of the constitution and international law but, realistically, it'll never happen. Ultra violent extremists like you are an extremely unpopular minority.

>>1281697 >People are deranged for protecting their country from invaders? For calling unarmed men, women and children immigrants "invaders"? For wanting to throw away the constitution and legalize murder so you can massacre civilians in violation of international humanitarian law? Yes. 100%. Completely unhinged, psychotic behavior. The vast majority of the country and world disagrees with you. That's why the thing you want is called murder and is illegal.
>Someone tell Putin he can just have Alaska. We won't do shit. Yes, because unarmed immigrants coming of their own accord to the U.S. looking for work is the same thing as the president of Russia purposefully sending a military force to annex a U.S. territory. Literally no difference.

>>1281706 >We won't do shit. I like that you're so radicalized and braindead the only two options in your head are either letting everyone across the border and doing nothing or executing them on site. You can't execute unarmed civilians. Sorry.
