    Default Let Me Clear Up an Issue

    There is so much misinformation recently concerning this immigration issue.

    First. WE HAVE Existing LAWS, which should be enforced - NOT ignored a la Obama policy.

    Second. In an immigration interview, a potential immigrant must demonstrate that he/she
    is trying to escape Political Persecution in the country of origin. That is in the LAW!
    Social or economic struggle is NOT recognized as a reason to grant asylum.

    Case in point. During the early 1990's, there was a wave of PRC (People's Republic of China)
    refugees trying to reach the US West Coast by ship. The Coast Guard would intercept them,
    hold them offshore, and bring out Customs interviewers and translators. In one case 256 were held off
    the coast just SW of San Diego right off Mexican Territorial Waters. Only 12 of those interviewed were
    granted asylum. The rest, the Mexican Navy took ashore at Rosarita, put them on a plane, and sent
    them back to China.

    That is how the present system is structured. What Obama did was a violation of our LAW and
    CONSTITUTION.
    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?

    The 12 that were granted asylum were probably just the 12 best liars.

    What was intended to be a decent, humanitarian concept has been exploited and abused tens of millions of times.

    It's time to make it almost impossible to successfully claim asylum at our borders.

    Yep... seeking asylum is the newest way to game our system, and they've all been coached on what to say.

    In the example I put above, EVERY one was coached by the smugglers and enforcers - called Snake Heads.
    The interviewers could see through all of that crap and got rid of all but those 12 who were legit.

    The Snake Heads and smugglers were arrested for violation of IMO Law (International Maritime Organization)
    regarding smuggling of people.
