There's especially no right to skip the line in front of other people under similar or worse circumstances. All true but the assertion that these people are somehow privileged is just plain ignorant.

Wilber Posted November 7, 2018 Report Posted November 7, 2018 Wow, sure are some folks around here claiming to be morally superior just because they have never been forced to run for their lives. Hero's all. Quote "Never trust a man who has not a single redeeming vice". WSC

DogOnPorch Posted November 8, 2018 Report Posted November 8, 2018 Why bother with the Peace Arch? Next time in the USA, just return via the treeline along 0 Ave. Seems to be the preferred method of entering Canada without scrutiny. Perhaps a cop can carry the stuff I bought in Bellingham. HEY! Wait... I'll need another cop....I have 4 bags. Quote Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

You're not very clever: the claim is these people are fleeing Honduras...a peaceful nation ultimately...poverty and crime aside. Prove these people are "fleeing Honduras" rather than going to the USA for free hand-outs from the generous welfare system. Pithy idiotic responses from yourself don't count as proof. 1 Quote Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.
