Unlike Cuban migrants, who are allowed to stay in the United States if they make landfall after crossing the treacherous Florida Straits, Haitian boatpeople are generally returned home.
Cubans allowed to stay? Who said this? Why? I thought illegal meant illegal.

What part of ILLEGAL is hard to understand? ALL illegals should be deported.

This was a poorly phrased and intentionally bigotted question that was posted.
Illegal is illegal, however, Cuban refugees who reach US soil are given the opportunity to apply for political asylum whereas Haitians are not.
