>>103723182>Put yourself in the shoes of the people in that caravan.Put yourself in the shoes of someone in Chicago, and make the same argument as to why Canada should accept them. I mean, after all, gun violence is at such hellish levels that being an American means getting shot and dying, if not by gangs, then by police officers themselves.
The argument that Canada should just accept anyone who wants to move there from inner cities in America is just as insane as the bullshit you just spouted.
>Since the cartels are quite powerful in Mexico as well, that option has all the same problems as staying put in the first place. Risk of death at the hands of the cartels, meaning they'll just try again to get through to the US.See, you're giving me this impression that anywhere south of the US border is a complete hellscape where not only will the cartels randomly butcher you at random, but the police will also butcher you at random, and also your fellow citizens will also butcher you at random for a chance to join said cartels.
Not only does this give me the impression that they should be shot on sight while so much as approaching our border, seeing as how they're all such horrible monstrosities, but it also makes me think that you don't actually know how cartels operate. It's good for their business to kill competitors, aka, the people you claim are "fleeing" the cartels. It's not good for their business to randomly butcher their consumers.
>The firearms and child trafficking are both the result of the drug trade and the people fleeing north.It's actually a result of our not enforcing our borders properly. Considering they can just hop over, sell drugs, women and children, buy a bunch of guns, then hop back, rinse, repeat, enhanced border security would help everyone.
>Considering that building a wall won't resolve any of this, I'd say that better drug treatment is the more efficient use of resources.It's called "not letting people in". It's not complex.
