The question has to be asked, " why are their lives at risk"? Maybe they are trouble causes. Possibly they are lying, and even if they are not lying, it isn't the responsibility of our government.

As I have said so many times. We need IMMIGRATION reform. The immigration laws are not fair to anyone and they single out certain races and certain countries as undesirables. Just because a person is poor, just because a person is not of white skin does not mean that he cannot be a productive citizen for the USA. I feel for the Africans who have also been under the rule of the WHITE man for too long. No one need call me a person who does not speak the truth .... what color are the politicians in Africa?

They are Asylum Seekers not immigrants and I'm sure that those in Africa who had the means and the contacts to get here, would do so.

Africa is a continent, not a country. The people of whom you speak are political refugees. not medical refugees. Some of those who have sought asylum have come form Africa.

These people are assylum seekers not immigrants and the majority of them are refused permission to stay. African people are allowed to ask for assylum from us.

ya and tell them how the government takes there money. and those people are lucky to get 40 dollars a week from a min paying job. to make it there they have to go to collage and get a good degree. tell them how us Americans are spoiled. and you want the illegal Mexicans here. let people who really appreciate America come in. you'll see less crime.

They can't afford to get here in the first place.
