      Yeah, if your first response in your native language is "You're not going to kill us?" when someone pulls up to help you, you know shit's bad in Venezuela. I lived in Ecuador for a bit in 2019, and it felt like I met more Venezuelanos que Ecuatorianos. La situacion en Venezuela no es bueno, obviamente.

      And yet, there're still tons of people who swear America is the worst place ever, blame everything on "America", don't appreciate the fact that there's tens of thousands of opportunities and jobs and if they just got off their ass and did something they could easily improve their wealth situation and lives. They rather get free handouts, dwell in their addictions, sit on their asses all day and play oppression games, these people should be stripped of their American citizenship and have it given to any aspiring foreigner who could simply do a little better than them.

      @Bill I agree that the mexican government should be fixed but Mexico is the Wild West. The corruption is in every layer of its infrastructure. The only way to fix the Mexican government is to overthrow it. Also the US government benefits greatly from it being the lawless place it is. For your second question Americans fail to realize it’s not just to Mexicans coming to the US through Mexico. Mexico is simply a vessel for every country below it.

    Brother, you have no idea how lucky you are to have been born there. A lot of people there take it for granted, but there are others that would risk there life's to have what you have. I live in Mexico, and I'm an engineer and me and my friends (who are engineers as well) dream about going to the USA one day. It's hard, but I'm still grateful to be here because those guys you met, they have it worse, Venezuela is just a deathbed, zero hopes of surviving there. It's crazy how we all live in the same world and its people making people suffer. We live on earth, and humans are the only species that pays to live on earth. I think these documents are awesome. If they're story surprised you, you should live one month in Mexico as a normal mexican citizen so you can get the full experience.

They'd survived up til that point so I'm sure after that meal he bought them they would've been fine for days. Also, the 10 years in jail is for smuggling them across the boarder which they were already past but I don't blame them for not letting them sleep at their place even though it sure seemed like he originally promised them that.

      Sheep 😂 Why dont you take in and house 20-30? Give shelter, food, healthcare needs, pay for schooling, etc. That’s doing your woke part. What do you want those border towns to do? They are over run. I mean sending 54 willingly to Martha’s Vineyard a nice rich deep blue area was bad? Why not send them to sanctuary cities/states where they can be cared for? I mean dems want open borders might as we’ll send them where they can be cared for right? Sure poverty, crime, drugs, etc will pop up but blue states like cali know just how to handle that 😂. Even the people in Martha’s Vineyard called the national guard, on 54 poeple 😂! How is Kamala handling the root causes? A couple months back over 50 were found dead in the back of a semi. How is that humane? It costs Texas alone over 130 billion a year to manage the illegals. Now the blue states can help since they wont finish the border wall. Xiden has the cages so full even Sardines feel bad. Xiden on the campaign trail Telling them to surge here and that we will let everyone in was not smart. Prayers for all the young girls and women abused, raped, and killed along the way by coyotes, prayers to all those who never make it on the horrible journey.

My ancestors fled the genocide in Turkey, only one made it, he became an indentured servant and then fought in the army to gain citizenship. My other side changed their last name to sound more american and assimilate. The wall helps our border agents to not be spread so dang thin. Those cages yes built by Obama, not as full under Trump, and now over packed by xiden. Easiest way to stop it is to stop incentivizing illegal pathways to citizenship period. Once earned it can then be passed down. It shouldn’t be given to any and everyone. You cannot have a safe nation without a strong border. The wall worked for China 😂😂 and joe loves China. So Besides our homeless crisis, and now 2/3’s of Americans living paycheck to paycheck. You believe letting in 3 million illegal immigrants who have very little documentation into our country will lead to what? Who’s going to pay for them? You dems want to house maybe 20-30 each, cover their food, shelter, medical needs, clothing, schooling, etc? Because rn the american tax payers are covering that. Costs Texas over 100 billion annually to cover all them. I’m glad we have them taking buses and planes to blue sanctuary cities and states! That way those who want open unchecked borders can handle all of their needs. Blue states know how to deal with the homeless and crime!! Not sure how well I’d do if I traveled for days to a country that I have no knowledge about, don’t speak the language, and have no relatives in. Just like small border cities, families, kids, men, women are out filling the street corners. Real humane lol, you don’t want to stop the million of tons of drugs pouring over to stop? Or the child/adult smuggling by cartels? Trails of childrens shoes? Or videos of coyotes dropping toddlers and babies from the top of the wall? Your good with all that? Tens of millions of Americans dying every year from overdose and laced narcotics. China working with the cartels to get fentanyl all over the nation. Wish you cared this much about our VETS! Or the mothers who cannot feed their children do to no baby formula, those who cannot fill their gas tanks due to xiden. All joe had to do was sit in the basement and sniff little girls. Keep him away from cameras, make sure he stops making racist statements which is hard for ole Joey who’s mentor was a grand dragon or wizard of the kkk. Real solid morals you have.
