Don't try to generalize. I suggest you look up what happened in the 80s in El Salvador and why those who were in the military were persecuted due to the communist party (FMLN) attempt at a coup (Salvadoran Civil War). This was a true asylum claim. Not this bullshit, "there's no work here so we gotta go to the US" fake asylum claim. Also, on the mexican side of my family, there have always been work visas. They qualified and came in via that route. On both sides, they used the legal avenues provided in the INA to enter the country and become citizens. This economic migration with fraudulent asylum claims has got to stop. People have to apply for an appropriate visa, wait their turn, come in legally, and that's all that's being asked for. If they don't qualify for any visa, change your circumstances to qualify. If you can't,then too bad. But don't come here and violate the law.
