Now, you may wish to take this statement with a huge grain of salt, as I am about to post about Yuma, Arizona, which is a very spread out and sprawling place like most Sunbelt cities and towns are. I spent a few hours there on Tuesday, May 14th, passing around various places in town on the shuttle down to the border. \
I saw no marauding bans of Central Americans looting and pillaging or otherwise. I did however speak to a woman on the shuttle on the way down who says she has friends who caught migrants lurking on their property which I find scary if it's true. I did also speak to a few other locals who say that there are migrants in town but there's no crisis.
As for Algodones, I saw nothing different then usual other than one thing - this time there was a huge range of fake goods out of the street for sale, something I have never seen there before. Fake Rolexes, Ray Bans, ladie's MK and Coach purses and wallets, all kinds of fakes. This was not the case when I used to visit. As to migrants, none obviously visible and none waiting outside the US port of entry as in Nogales. Rob
