Unfortunately if they were fleeing Central America hoping to find something better in the USA they were wrong and they wasted their time. People talking about these countries being hosed up ignore the people in the nations who were duplicit in allowing these things to happen.

Effectronica posted:Probably we should allow claims of asylum for situations like the ones these people faced and are going to be facing again, which we do not currently. Probably we shouldn't treat people making a claim of asylum by throwing them into prison for a few months. Probably we should behave humanely, and also overthrow those who find excuses for inhumane behavior. But everyone from central america wants to come here. If they could half the population would apply for asylum. I know Guatemalans who have come here on student visas and stuck around transferring between schools praying they can find a American they can marry just so they don't have to go back despite not having a single job opportunity here. Allowing them to come here and live is not going to fix the main problem. And it's not going to make things better for us either. These countries are bad yes. But they are hardly the war torn Syria. Their murder rates are high but the vast majority of the population is not going to die. Their houses aren't being bombed. There is still food available.
