Majority of the 12,000 Haitians at the border had been living in Brazil & Chile for several
years.

Word spread around the Haitian community in South America and earlier this year they decided to make the trek up north to the United States. And now theyre going to be forcibly flown back to Haiti.

If they claim asylum they should be let in. Simple as that. Let them in and start living their lives in the U.S. while the asylum process and paperwork gets done.

That asylum was already happening, in Brazil and Chile.

We don't have the room or the jobs or the resources to let in everyone that shows up and claims asylum. We have over 330 million people, we have enough people as is.

Maybe someone can correct my understanding, but I was under the impression that asylum seekers are expected to seek asylum at the first country they come to that they are not seeking asylum from. Is that not accurate?

Letting 12k unvetted and probably unvaccinated individuals just stay in the US seems like a pretty bad idea.

Yeah yeah, "But what about all the Americans that aren't vaxxed??" Yes, they are stupid. Yes, if we could I'd prefer to just kick them out, but I don't think adding more super spreaders into a community just because some people aren't vaxxed is a good argument.

It's a shithole because it's always getting hit with natural disasters and is ran by a corrupt regime.

I highly doubt that's the reason why Haiti is in the state it is in right now.

To be fair I've called the US a shithole many times, but it's a very different context when it's said by racist posters directed at, as you say, countries comprised largely of poor brown people. But the mod staff refuses to believe context exists so will never mod it.

Haiti is largely in the state it is in precisely because of meddling at the hands of France and the US for the most part. That country is still paying the price at the hands of the West for that slave revolt.

Well theyre here now, so let them stay. These Haitians are probably harder workers and willing to work the minimum wage jobs that American citizens dont want to do.

We need to keep our capitalist economy going and what better way than with immigrants. McDonalds is desperate for workers but doesnt want to raise the pay? Well heres some desperate immigrants who are more than willing and grateful to do the jobs that spoiled privileged Americans refuse to do.

Immigrants make our country stronger with their hard work, determination, & cultural enrichment. Open the borders.

From the first article, it seems like Haiti was always war torn as fuck, unless I'm reading that wrong. I skimmed through it.

But yeah, the US definitely fucked up there. Like a lot. I take back what I said.
