That is the problem with running somewhere else tail between your legs. Eventually someone has to fight for your rights. Land of the free because of the brave. The only reason these countries have such horrible rulers is because the people do not have the courage to make changes. They think freedom is free. Wrong.
I'm still working on training my Iguana... little prick can't stop licking the envelope.
What hand did the average Honduran have in turning their country into a shithole?
That is the only rebuttal your right wing machine drivel deserves. Get something original would ya? That is if you are smart enough to post something that isn't copy and paste right wing bullshit.
It is their country. It is their government. Who is to blame for how people decide to govern themselves. They could have set up any government they want. It was their choices that determine the direction their country takes economically.
Another great rebuttal I see.
I visited and spoke with migrants in Mexico's interior and on the border at El Paso and with those who worked with them twice in the past few years. (Sometime before that I evaluated, documented or wrote positions on thousands of asylum claims involving dozens of countries over 20 years.) The Central American stories described a sort of a "Ukraine lite," where people were killied individually as opposed to by bombs. We accept Cubans who ducktail and run to come here because we consider that country so bad that it doesn't matter if bombs are used. We gave asylum to Poles who fled a crackdown by the Soviets, Nicaraguans who fled a leftist government, Salvadorans who fled death squads, and Guatmalans who fled mass murder. Despite a clear bias towards those fleeing leftist governments, all of them claimed that they met the definition of a refugee as it is described in international and US law. Many did and were granted protection. I may be ignorant of current conditions in all the countries mentioned here, but I know something of refugee law, and can say with certainty that the extreme situation in Ukraine is not the prerequisite condition for establishing refugee status.
How responsible are you for our current government?
You are already getting you ass handed to you, so I figured I would be nice and not pile on.Another great rebuttal I see.
You have proven my point. They have not and are not willing to fight for their freedom.
Sorry but I joined the military and was more than willing to fight for my freedom as well as the freedom of people all over the world. So save your lies for yourself if they apply. Instead of everyone in the world running here expecting me and my children to do their fighting why don't they grow a pair and fight for their freedom. If they don't have the courage to fight for their freedom then they don't deserve it. We should be shipping these asylum seekers to Ukraine so the Ukrainian people can show them how it is done.
You mean like we did in this country to the black people and the immigrants like the Irish and the Chinese who built our railroads.
Sorry you missed the point. I will explain it to you if you really need me to.
That’s why they needed it?
I heard Texas is going to require cavity searches for bamboo ballots in dem leaning districts. And an internal ultrasound for women to make sure they aren’t smuggling tiny Mexicans into the polls.
Sorry, but you don’t seem to grasp the law. Since 1980, the US has granted asylum to thousands of people who passed through “third countries,” as they are called, to seek asylum here, much as other countries have granted asylum to people who pass through third countries. Canada had a reputation some years ago of sheltering Sri Lankan’s during the persecution there, who obviously didn’t go there directly. I worked on Iranian cases, cases from various African countries, and few of those came here directly. As to people who fled Central America, there is no obligation - none - that a young teen, a woman, a senior, or a world class athlete stay and kill or die to change their country. And many do NOT choose to come here, but shelter elsewhere in their country, flee to other nearby countries, and, as you suggest, hide out in Mexico. Mexicans sheltering these people recommended that they go to Monterrey, a northern industrial city where they might get work and not be discovered. I must confess that I don’t know Mexico’s asylum system. In the past it’s military forced some Guatemalans back and they were killed upon their return, but that was some time ago. Mexico has a reputation of sheltering prominent exiles. As a practical matter, people often tended to chose where to run based on where a relative or friend wound up. As a legal matter, the US is prohibited from returning people to danger.
Please do.
