Haitian Refugees
The U.S. government’s new policy of escorting Haitian boat people back to their country is long overdue.
Many other countries have signed various U.N. pronouncements about refugees. Where are their navies? Where are their open borders? The U.S. is a sovereign nation. It is not our responsibility to accept every person who wants to come here.
The American taxpayer, fast becoming an economic refugee, has rights too.
