The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Most latinos and myself don't want large amounts of people trying to get in. We don't want to find out that they're advertising in China, or Yemen that you can walk across the border and apply for asylum in the USA and they'll get you there for $xxxxx.

Sure. But, as albaby argued with Dope, the data show that something like 60% (if memory serves) of asylum-seekers were approved. That's without counsel. They stood in front of a judge and made their case without a lawyer, and it was accepted. So I think your characterization is a little unfair. Not completely inaccurate. Just that a lot of those people were adjudicated to have legitimate claims.
