    1.6 million of them? If 1.6 million people are being individually targeted, the problem won’t be solved with asylum.

      The point isn’t to stop the gangs and violence, it’s to take in the people fleeing that violence so that they do not get killed because of that violence. These are people with skills and a desire to make a better life for themselves, they have a place here, and there are not that many of them no matter how big you want to that “1.6 million” figure sound by skipping the context of the total numbers.

      You’re clearly not interested in actually thinking about this, or you’d be engaging more. Answer some of my questions with facts and figures, and we can continue.
