What do you think about the wet foot dry foot law for the Cubans?
Answer:
I think why is that so different then the Mexicans walking hundreds of miles through scorching heat? If we are going to send back the Mexicans when caught dangerously crossing the border( while most die there trying to cross). Then why not send the Cubans back too.
Our Govt. says "It's bad to come here illegally" on one hand.
Then flip flops and says to the Cubans " But if YOU make it you can stay"
Like I said in my Q OUR GOVT. NEEDS TO GET IT'S PRIORITIES STRAIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's bunk...
They shouldn't do it for any illegal alien.
I copied and pasted some of the article below. If you would like to see the whole thing, it on the web site below. I say tuff, if they can't make a living here. They're not legal.
Under the U.S. "wet foot/dry foot" policy, Cubans who are interdicted at sea are generally returned to Cuba, while those who reach U.S. shores are usually allowed to stay after they have been in the United States for at least a year.
Cuban authorities in the past have said that U.S. policy acts as an enticement for its citizens to emigrate and has blamed past migration increases on growth in the human smuggling trade. Cuban officials in Havana said this week they are studying the new migration patterns and that the Castro government would have no comment on the 2005 increases until the analysis is finished.
The Coast Guard attributes at least part of the 2005 increase to improved interdiction efforts spurred by the focus on border security in the aftermath of the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Creation of the Homeland Security Department included the Coast Guard with such agencies as the Border Patrol and Customs, which have their own aircraft and marine patrols.
"That's an additional set of eyes that we have," said Coast Guard spokesman Luis Diaz. "We all have a new No. 1 priority, which is protecting our shores. We are all on the same page now, and I firmly believe that is working much better."
In its annual report on Cuban migration, the U.S. State Department said the main reason for the surge is the continued poor economic conditions in Cuba -which is still recovering from the loss of billions of dollars in aid following the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Damian Fernandez, director of the Cuban Research Institute at Florida International University, said many Cubans are stuck in low-paying jobs with no opportunity to start a small business that might improve their financial future.
I think they should send the dry foots back too, sorry.
RULE WRONG DEAD WRONG / THERE ILLEGAL , IF THEY AND OTHERS DON'T LIKE THERE GOVERMENT, STAY AND WORK TO CHANGE THINGS , AMERICA DID IT WHEN WE WANTED TO BE FREE FROM GREAT BRITON, CUBA AND OTHER COUNTRIES MUST SOLVE THERE ON FAULTS . LET AMERICA SIT BACK ON THE SIDE AND LET THE OTHER SUPER POWERS CHANGE THINGS / YOU NO'S OTHER SOLUTION'S ARE OUT THERE
Then the trick is to turn the boat back to cuba.
