Here's what I don't understand about the asylum thing, and I will admit it is my own ignorance on the subject, but if they are fleeing their country to a country where they are not endangered, shouldn't they seek asylum in the FIRST safe haven they come to, i.e Mexico?
If they just want to come to America for the dream, the social services, minimum wage, etc. I get it. But walking 1600 miles through a perfectly safe (for them) country to get to America doesn't seem sensible if all they are wanting is to escape their country.
Either way, I said it in a previous post. These people have guts and determination that I can't fathom.
