Re: @Bronek Flaming idiot, social justice warrior and political hack
While I strongly disapprove of Seth Vargo's gesture, which affects innocent third parties, and I agree that the United States government has a right and a duty to control immigration at its borders, the fact remains that there are people in Central America who, due to an ongoing situation of armed violence there, do not have any good legal alternatives for themselves and their families.
If the United States doesn't want to accept them as refugees - and their refugee claim is valid under international laws and treaties the United States has signed - it can use its armed might to bring peace and order to the area from which these people came.
Compassion and empathy for all innocent human beings is not a failing.
