Haitians. Not walking in w Louis Vitton, nice clothes and neck cushions like Mexicans who are NOT entitled to asylum, which lib Marauder has been preaching for years.
The leader,’Barbecue’ tells us all to get ready for a bloody revolution. You fellers seem to not be concerned about it since you have not posted anything. We have Americans that are trapped there. Do yo ...[text shortened]... who have no right to asylum, and a country that does have a right to asylum? You will not get this.
Okay. Do you know the 1951 UN Refugee Convention (and its 1967 Protocol)?
What is a refugee (asylum seeker)?
Well. Read that. That’s the basis of a request for asylum.
Now… are the people in Haiti being persecuted for their beliefs / politics / religion / sexuality?
If not, must they be afforded asylum?
Now… one step further… are the Mexican “migrants” requesting asylum? Are they being persecuted for the afore mentioned reasons?
If not, must they be afforded asylum?
How do you know if they are or are not being persecuted for the afore mentioned reasons?
You judge that upon their request.
Not rocket science… fact… international treaty… law… whatever you want to call it…
So, to answer your non-question of sorts, one must look at each individual case to judge if it has merit or not.
Yeah… law is a bummer…
Which conclusions do you then draw?
