I hate to tell you this. But has always been this way in the us. It used to be that the USA has a quota amount that we would except in the us. That's one of the main reasons that you sure turned away from New York. Cuz I would have to increase the quote on the West Coast
You're right but we also didn't go drown them in the Hudson. The southern border can be a savage place. I'll never forget stepping out of the car during a cross-country trip and immediately losing my breath due to the heat.
I'm not disagreeing with you at all just pointing out that this attitude isn't out of the norm for the USA. I will state this next sentence kinda the same pattern with US the bullshit at the border we just didn't kill people. But is True for most of the time in the us history. The USA would just send the the people back on the boat that came in one. But in the late 1930 and early 1940 we sent many jews back to Germany to be gassed, starved, and worked to death. Did US pull the trigger no. But did the US doom them I would say yes but at that time wasn't known what would happen when her were returned. That being said just pick up the people and send them back across the border it isn't that hard. Does it cost money yes but damnit I don't think traps need to be laid to kill people.
