The sad thing is all those people want is a good life, every Mexican I have ever met has been an extremely hard worker, and here in the U.S they work for a lot less then others, I know plenty of guys who laid off their whole crew, and rehired all Mexican guys cuz they work harder, faster, and they don't complain and act spoiled like the American guys....\nSad but true......

Sad thing is they are running from a tyrant and extreme inflation. We will be there soon but, we have no where to run to.

A bird's eye perspective: A lot of these people are coming from impossible living situations, surviving under corrupt officials, and dangerous environments. They're desperate, and completely unaware of how bad things are getting here. It's important to remember: These are humans and neighbors. So sad because we Americans could be in a similar situation soon.

Sad thing is I live in Trinidad and Tobago a 3rd world country and our corrupt government open our doors to them and we're already in a shit hole.

Sad thing is none of them are from Mexico. Mostly are all men from Africa.

Although they are doing the right thing, this is sad. I hope those people can find a way around poverty… somehow

Sad thing is Venezuelans and Hondurans have very good reasons for wanting to flee here but we’re so full up with all the useless life barnacles that came here illegally that we are forced to stop people who are left with no choice but to try something like this. That is the cost of dem policy - good men having to do a thing that is right but will still be haunted in their dreams.

Sadly, this is nothing new. Canada has always been discriminatory towards African Americans. I have experienced it myself many years ago and Im sure its only gotten worse. Racism is prevlent all over sadly and I dont see things changing for the better.

The sad thing is people put their kids through this shit

Racism happens to a lot of races here in Canada and around the world and I think will always be the case. My mom came from the Philippines and worked two jobs back to back for 17 years and was bullied so badly by East Indians because they ran her work place but she had to stay strong and deal with that among other things while growing up but is still grateful to Canada until this day. My ex girlfriend of many years was Congolese but grew up in Kenya and yes I felt racism on her part when we were together and it was frustrating and sad but again it came from all races not just white people. She is still grateful for Canada and always stayed strong and didn’t let these idiotic attitudes tear her down. Hopefully things will change in the world but the state it is in right now doesn’t seem to be the case.

Imagine being a black indigenous people here for over 400+ years they don't acknowledge us as indigenous and being black just as bad as the US but they're very silent about it. This is all over Canada sadly. Even in Toronto Ontario there's a lot of discrimination as well even in Nova Scotia where a lot of black indigenous people reside... Or the largest group of black folks but sadly we've done it to ourselves when you look at this history.. 2023 and we still have no solid change at being looked at as an equal... When we get our resources together and start practicing nepatism perhaps things may change but we still have a long ways to go... And it's overwhelmingly sickening.. especially when we gaslighting situations.

So be honest, Texas and California should be part of Mexico and if you don’t believe me, go research how we obtain California and Texas if you don’t know we stole them from Mexico and the sad part is it’s the only parts of Mexico that really had real economically rich resources if you look at the rest of Mexico, pretty much 60% of it is uninhabited and that is because there are zero resources or they are just very scarce and it’s impractical to put a society there. That’s why a lot of Mexico lives along the coast line. It’s also why most of Mexico is very poor and the other sad part of reality is it’s the same thing America does. It moves and says it’s helping but in the end, they screw people over and it’s not America. It’s just our corrupted government doing it and the other sad part of that is, if it wasn’t our government doing it, it would be someone else is doing it. Human beings in a whole are nasty, maniacal creatures, and we have stopped teaching morals across the world this stop being on teaching those morals has put humans into a spiral downfall of Self damnation

I am descendant of Latinos, and I do not agree with this administration has caused. I met someone in a Walmart parking lot from Venezuela. He had been here in Atlanta for 10 days and didn’t know anyone. He told me he came to the US because Biden promised all Venezuelans asylum and therefore be legalized in the US. So I genuinely asked him how his country was, and he said that things were very difficult; not being able to afford basic things, so then I said “well, I’m sure that is the result of the presidents decisions, most precisely socialism/communism,” I thought he was going to agree and he said “no, our president and former president had good ideas and plans.” My point is that all of these people coming from Venezuelan are fleeing their country because of the negative situation that sadly is taking place in their country, however their mindsets have been corrupted by thinking they deserve to have “free” things. All of these ppl will be legalized and they will be able to vote very soon, so these ppl will vote democrat because they were given this opportunity by Biden. This is a very demonic man by the left, and sadly this will cause a lot negative results to the US. It’s too late to revert this, soon we will see the negative consequences of what this administration is causing to this country ?

The sad thing is the US offered to help Mexico ?? and other countries solve their cartel problem and violence issue from that, but the president in Mexico doesn’t want to get the help. No wonder immigrants don’t wanna live there

I can't believe that CNN is reporting on this issue. They have been supporters of our deteriorating government and hiders of the truths of their complete disregard of our immigration laws. Apparently they need rating boosts and are trying to attract conservative Americans to help save their rapidly deteriorating numbers. Sorry (not sorry), guys. It's too late for your fake efforts. America has spoken and you are a sad thing of the past. The only reason I even stumbled across this was because it was a short that randomly popped up and I watched because I thought it was a legit news source... until I noticed it was from CNN. Just die and go away. Your lies have finally caught up with you. We need no more fake news! We know the truths anyway!

The hipocresy of American politics is just too much, on one hand they will give you the idea of resolving the border issue, on the other some work to get money in their pockets by cartels and other criminal organizations worldwide like isis, and on the other killing the economy by not making the illegal immigrants work like Florida. I mean is a mess, not one sided like many people see on here, the root of the problem is so much deeper and it involves a lot of things sadly :/\nJust hoping everyone will be okay for the times to come and know who the real enemy is (hint: is not these people who are desperate like others in the country). It has always been the ones on top who make you believe a color or party is gonna change a thing when it’s not

But they are going to get very thing free that is why they are coming we have it bad but they don't some of us are old people but they will be first then us that is why they are here and that is so darn sad for us the American people to be going through that what w shame on the white house and you know what IAM talking about

There are racists every where in the world its a sad but true fact. Western Canada in particularly has this problem within Canada. Alberta where she is located has a significant MAGA type presence of ignorant white supremacist and separatist types. They don't even like other white Canadians from other parts of the country. Canada as a whole though is far better than the US when it comes to acceptance of other cultures. As a Canadian I am sorry for this woman's familys experience, ignorance is not an exclusively American thing.

What’s sad thing is these illegals think that they are entering the land of milk and honey.

Latin here, I came here legally but I can tell you that it was difficult as hell for my mom to bring me here, it took money and years for that, but I want you as a fellow citizen to understand their situation first, in Latin America you could be graduation from college and even with that having a good job it’s difficult sometimes, unlike here education in Latin America is not always something that all people can get and every time they vote for someone it becomes more trashier, housing for the poor doesn’t even exist, half of the country is corrupt and going outside you don’t who you may find, my brother needs to wait 7 years to become a resident (not citizen) he will be 30 something at that point, what the government should do is make the residency easier and I can tell you something like this wouldn’t occur that easily, my mom is a lawyer in my country and I can tell you the situation wasn’t easy, every three times a week there would be shooting outside my house, drug dealer was my neighbor, and at the age of 15 there would parents of two kids the sad part all this is normal, stopping it is imposible because it gets you kill, the police will kill you for doing a peaceful protest just to stop feminicide, wanting your kid to go outside without being scare something would happen to them, this people want peace and a job that is it and when your own country doesn’t even give you the right for that how could you live? Latin America is like living in the worst state in U.S multiply by 1000 and happening the same thing every day, riots or protest are imposible there because you know the police will never go the peaceful way, what this people are doing is wrong but they just want to live, it even surprise how much people hate their president here when in Latin America there hasn’t been any good president in decades. Before someone tells me something, like I say what they are doing is wrong and it’s painful to watch, something should not be happening in the first place but it is happening and I hope the situation gets better but like I say before saying something disrespectful or out of place to these people, understand their situation first

Why can’t the United Nations come together and come up with a physical solution for this people in their countries it’s sad that they have to struggle and go hungry but if we keep getting millions upon millions of people coming in then the economy here will collapse it doesn’t make sense there’s enough resources for everyone but when greed kicks in this happens the gap between poor and rich in the countries down is beyond huge your either dirt poor or dirty rich why can’t people do something .Another thing that pisses me off is if you can’t take care of yourself much at all why have so many kids I understand wanting to have a big family but not if you can’t take care of them

The sad thing about ppl talking about how many homeless we have as being a reason why we can’t allow legal immigration is that we have more than enough vacant housing for the entire homeless population. What we don’t have are jobs, AFFORDABLE HOUSING, and healthcare to get the homeless off the streets.

This makes me so sad, to see this many people placing themselves in harms way to come here. I don’t know how to fix this but things are getting worse, people need to survive. You can’t have a heart and witness the desperation of those less fortunate but you alone can’t save everyone?

?Sad thing is, we are all in this together. We will all be migrants soon enough. These countries people are fleeing from were despaired by the same criminals destroying America. Most people are good and desperate for a decent life. Everything that is happening is deliberate.

Sad that every self respecting human that can be isnt there in some capacity blowing these people away that are shitting on every legal migrant and naturalized and native born Americans right to live freely and comfortably in their country. But at least they do have nice new clothes and things to start with here as they invade leaving their own country in the shit for their patriots to defend and improve. \nYes we'll take your weak, your tired and your hungry. Nature will sort them accordingly.

You sad thing is I feel bad for a lot of these people especially those from Venezuela but America can’t take care of it’s own let alone 100s of thousands of migrants

This is a crisis.. what’s being done about this? Being someone who’s hispanic and white, I understand both sides to some extent and it brings a great deal of sadness apon me, but this can’t be happening. America needs to pull their head out of their ass and start making things happen.

And the Sad thing is that The Whites in Canada, Australia, The U.S, New Zealand, England etc are all living on someone else's land. They are parasites. They have never in a history of mankind settled on any barren or virgin land like we Africans and Native Americans have done. So it makes sick that the people whi are not from the land can boldly tell someone go back to your country. They Whites have absolutely no shame!!!

The name America doesn’t exist anymore sadly to say but it’s definitely true so many things are fked up in the red white and blue country ??

Sad our idiotic president keeps making bad choices. I live 7 mins away from the yarbrough entry and its scary. Gets me mad Americans are struggling bad and our own president isn't helping us but others. For those who voted thinking this is okay its not, they are rude, entitled, and trashing up our city bad. This isnt fair for those who did things right to be here this is pathetic.

the sad thing is america is like heaven compared to their country

Native Americans never did this to Europeans illegal emigration to their country So sad to see such things today

Now you see WHY President Trump wanted to continue the WALL ... ? IT WASN'T for LOOKS!! It would be nice that people can LIVE anywhere but if WE would RESPECT each other & WORK and NOT TAKE THINGS for FREE!! People are breaking into homes instead of working ... FREE is CHEAPER so SAD ... SOME people just want to better their lives!!! And to see parents have their children with them ? ... People wouldn't leave their country if their President loved/cared for their people MAKE YOUR COUNTRY GREAT ... ?

I think people with You Tube videos promoting Canada as a place to live are paid to do those videos. \nYour assessment regarding Canada is bang on. \nI feel sad for people who come here with the belief that their lives will be better, Only to find out that they are far worse off. \nI've noticed the cost of groceries and housing have tripled in the last few years.\nVery difficult to get a Dr in Canada. 50.000 people in my small province are without a Dr. \nPeople are being neglected by Canada's healthcare system to the point of dying right in the hospital waiting rooms or while waiting for an ambulance. Yet, A huge chunk of taxes go toward healthcare. \nHomeless encampments are on the rise as landlords are gouging people for exorbitant rent. Streets are lined with homeless people and with the high cost of living it could be anyone of us carting our humble belongings around in a shopping cart.\nIf you have children I'd avoid sending them to Canadian schools and opt for homeschooling. Your children will be read to by drag queens while sitting on some strangers lap. \nThis week in class my neighbors son class will be showing boys how to paint their nails. They've already been taught about every kind of sexual position and how to use condoms and butt plugs. Yes, Even elementary students!\nThe school libraries are filled with books that promote pedophilia. \nThey want your children dumbed down and sexualized at an early age.\nWars are instigated because the greedy globalists want the land and resources and the politicians regardless of their colors are all in the pockets of a few elitists who rule over the many.\nThe globalists know that war creates all of the things they support. \nDepopulation, Refugees, Who they want for cheap Labor, Land the refugees left behind for the resources to fill their troughs with. \n\nMy apologies for the long diatribe and Thank You Sir for being an honest and informative voice regarding the truth about Canada. \n\nI was born and raised here and my dream is to leave. \nEven Russia or China is starting to look good compared to Canada.

big problem with the housing is also trudeau taking in so many immigrants and refugees before having enough available housing for everybody. I think they were taking in 200k people a year. while we need atleast 1million new houses within the next 10 years in order to supply enough to the population. There was also an issue with forieign purchases where people from other countries were buying houses in canada and nobody living in them. Trudeaus votes comes from majority indian people and arabic since thats a lot of the population in canada, and to win those votes and get more hes friendly with them accepting a lot of immigrants from those countries, its not a bad thing since a lot are very well educated and their peaceful people for the most part, but the problem is there isn't enough housing. Even renting has become competitive , owning is near impossible without help. Trudeau really messed up the country, houses are riduclously expensive and they often go into bidding wars if in a good area, banks interest rates keep going up now, loans are harder to take out, sadly we need to limit the amount of immigrants that come into the country until the right number of houses are built in the country, if anything new and major cities need ot be build in other locations with jobs in order to get more people spread out around the provinces. Once there is enough houses and jobs i believe the doors should be open to whomever wishes to come (obviously with a background check) but until then there should be a limit so the houses stop going up.

Wow these comments are funny theses are people who clearly don’t understand what’s it like to live in a third world country, I thought the “American Dream” was still a thing ig not, and don’t go say “well they should just get in the right way” bc if u says that u clearly don’t understand how it work you need upwards of 8,000 dollars to even try to get in and a good ass lawyer, who tf has that much money and a good lawyer when ur in a this world country. Sad to see so many “Americans” saying stop letting them in, the “American Dream” has really died sad. Keep living ur comfortable lives tho and saying thing you know little ab ??

Sad thing is these people want to work. Most of the homeless in America choose not to work.

AND ANOTHER THING THEY COME AND START BREEDING UP BURDENING OUR SYSTEM, BEING GIVEN MORE RIGHTS THAN US, THAT FOUGHT FOR OUR RIGHTS..WE HERE STRUGGLING WITH HOMELESSNESS, RACISM, AMONG SO MCH OTHER THINGS...OMG...MAY GOD HELP THEM ALL TO FIND A WAY TO SURVIVE....THE WHOLE WORLD IS UNDER STRESS, LETS ALL PRAY FOR OUR COUNTRY AND THE UNFORTUNATE ONES THATS LIVING IN HORRIBLE CONDITIONS, I'M SAD FOR OUR WORLD ??????????

I feel for their plight. Sad thing is Americans have had it too good for too long and can't bring themselves to feel any amount of sympathy for others

Sad thing is Americans are barely making it. Lord be with us all

I understand coming to America is the thing nowadays but if you was born here you wouldn't like it you would rather be born somewhere else and just let it be with it be just born there and die there. Sad but true?

Oh my god. This is so sad. USA itself is a bankrupt country borrowing nonstop to cover expenses. The whole thing is scary as our future in North America is uncertain:(

The sad thing is they also take their kids the little girls who are sometimes 10 years old or 8 years old they was pimp the mother and they will auction off the virgin daughter very scary information hopefully somebody there's a video and it documentary and posted online because we need to bring awareness to this sad reality

Most Americans don't know how lucky they are of being born in United States, I am a Colombian living legally here in the US, but the sad thing is that I can't stay here forever, I am gonna go back to Latin America in 3 years because of my VISA

The US gov did rise its hand before its head ? this issue is just not something one or two country can solve ? if Biden and his fellows care ab them, why do not coporate w other countries ? we all acknowledge a sad thing that the whole country has being more pooer ? exploiting by many visible ans invisible dissaters ? why the gov solves issues half-half like that

There so many jobs that are over working their employees but those employees also want to work because of the high cost of living cost of living should not be so high no one should be homeless … owning a home or renting should be affordable for everyone that’s is willing to work a normal 30 to 40 hr work week … shouldn’t be no such thing as unemployment but sadly this is the case because of greedy business owner greedy government so many things that is the reason for struggling world in the end we all need to accept Jesus Christ as our lord d and saviour, repent of your sins turn towards righteousness caring and loving each other

THE SAD THING HERE IS THAT, THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY LOYALTY TO AMERICA. THEY KUST WANT TO COME AND MAKE MONEY AND SEND IT TO THEIR COUNTRY. IT DOES NOT BENEFIT AMERICA. I THINK THIS MAY BE PLANNED BY THEIR HOME GOVERNMENT TO DISRUPT AMERICA AND OTHER INFILTRATORS ARE INSIDE. THEY MOSTLY ARE GOING TO BREAK THE LAW AND OVERCROWD THE SYSTEM\nWE AMERICANS ARE REALLY STRUGGLING. CANT EVEN BUY A HOUSE WITH ALM THAT WE PAY IN TAXES AND SWEAT . YET THESE PEOPLE ARE COMING AND UNDER 3 YEARS WILL GET A HOME HANDED TO THEM . WHY\nWHY WHY- \nWHY ARE WE AMERICANS MADE TO GO THROUGH THIS KINDS OF HARDSHIP AND YET ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS MOST OF WHOM ARE HERE TO SUCK THE WELFARE SYSTEM GET PRIORITY.\nMOST OF THEM COMING IN HAVE MORE MONEY THAN AMERICANS \nAMERICAN GOVERNMENT, TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN CITIZENS FIRST . THIS IS THE RIGHT AND HUMANE THING TO DO ELSE, THE COUNTRY WILL LOOSE ITS FLAVOR.\nLet’s live in dignity. \nBEWARE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING. THIS DOES NOT APPLY ONLY TO VENEZUELAN BUT TO ALL OTHERS \n\nWHEN YOU COME IN LEGALLY, YOU BRING DIGNITY

However how sad things are this is not the way to do it. You get banned for life this way.

Their countries are probably better off than our country. People stay where you are/were. Things are not good here. You'll be living on the streets. Begging for food. Many Americans are dealing with this. This is not living, it's barely existing. So so sad.

idk about you guys but that is not the kind of people i would even want in my country. my parents immigrated too but never expected hand outs nor did they ever recieve financial aide of any kind. why give our taxpayer dollars to these people when we are not even taking care of our own people? people that they themselves have paid into the system. i have also worked with them and its been the worst experience. they dont want to do the work right and get offended when you try to coach them. they show up to work to recieve a check but dont come to work to work. they are people that just expect things to be given to them because thats how it used to be when venezuela was rich off oil. its sad that this is how they represent their people
