Amnesty International berates President Trump for planning to stop Migrant caravan from entering the US.

So, I've been watching the news regards the mass movement of a load of people from central America who are currently heading north towards the US. President Trump has said no way will he allow these people to enter and that if they wish to enter the US, that they have to do it legally and there the problem lies. To the worlds ethical latte drinkers, the US is simply wrong to refuse people who wish to simply walk across the border and have the US taxpayer pay for them to live. Be it a home, medicine, schooling or even work, the left feels that the US should do the right thing and allow these people in, Well the so called elites of the ethical latte brigade, Amnesty international has thrown its oar in and is currently demanding that President Trump abandons his plan to close the border. Erika Guevara-Rosas, Director at Amnesty International US branch has stated:

“The Trump administration is defying international law and manufacturing a crisis at the border by proposing policies that would cause catastrophic and irreparable harm to thousands of families who had no choice but to leave home in order to keep their children safe from harm. “President Trump has shown callous disregard for the plight of those making this dangerous journey from Honduras and other Central American countries. His administration must stop waging a deliberate campaign of human rights violations against people seeking safety and immediately recognise that everyone has the right, under US and international law, to seek protection.”

 Margaret Huang, Amnesty International USA’s Executive Director, added:

 “Banning people from seeking asylum would be a direct violation of national and international law and put lives in danger. It would be the culmination of years of hateful policies criminalising families seeking protection and would throw desperate people back into harm’s way.The people whose lives are endangered by this unspeakably cruel proposal are simply not national security threats. They are people just like you and me, except many have been forced to run for their lives from violence and persecution. All they are asking for is a chance to seek safety. They deserve our compassion, not our contempt.”

I'm not American so I can't speak for the US, but I do have a suggestion , how about these people who demand that these people are allowed in sponsor as many people as they can, that means putting them up in their homes , paying for their food and medical bills and paying a surety on their good behaviour. To me that sounds like a fantastic idea as with so many people demanding the US takes in these people, surely if these concerned citizens took them in, more people could be helped . However I feel that many of these do-gooders won't agree to he above and that people highlights the duplicity of the snowflake generation who whilst happy to campaign for social justice causes are only happy to do so if somebody else pays.
