Granting asylum to famalies fleeing terror and starvation is no an invasion, and these individuals are protected by international laws. Remember (those coming from England) were also fle4eing Terrible things going on in Europe such as religious oppression. The were in essence asylum seekers an dto put it you terms invaders of th the American indian land.
International laws says those fleeing, like you say, are to turn themselves in at the first country they come to. Ah! That would be Mexico and Mexico did offer them asylum - they refused. They are not covered under international laws as you say!
In 1500's and later - land was open and not owned like today. Yes indians used the land but they claimed they couldn't own it. So there was no ownership!
The rules at that time(s) wanted settlers who would start a homestead. So they welcomed immigrants because there was a wide open space for them to apply their own sweat and toil to make something of and for themselves. They did a good job of it then!
These people today, are not entering here to homestead. They are not granted homesteads to cut out of the wilderness like those in the past. That type of cause has long passed. Just like slavery has long passed! We do not live in the past. What happened in the past is not what is happening today!
Your Quote:"Granting asylum to famalies fleeing terror and starvation is no an invasion, ..." Dems just granted 54 billion dollars to the central american countries they are fleeing. Why the starving with this type of money ? I don't recall any pictures of people like in the holocaust. Most pictures i see they are norm to heavy bodied structure. And how does starving people walk thousands of miles if they are really starved. That caravan was transporting itself over a good month +. 3 minutes without air, 3 hours without shelter, 3 days without water, 3 months without food. If they were in a starving condition before they left, they would be dead.
Oh and how can you say they are poor and starving when you see cigarettes and cell phones? Especially expensive ones. And as I have traveled into Mexico, their cell phone service is expensive.
As for fleeing terror - who's fault is that for terrorism in their country? Then with them coming and not getting vetted they are bringing terrorist they that are fleeing along with them to make the same terror they are fleeing - HERE!
Oh and today America has eradicated some of the deadliest diseases, this caravan and illegals are bringing with them these ailments with them. Being vetted makes them get a health check - just like when they came over and was vetted through places like Ellis Island.
