They should know the U.S. economy is going down to hell and soon it will be a place where is going to be hard to get a good life, but when you’ve been in a way worse situation you can tolerate anything, it’s understandable….entiendan gente, los Estados Unidos ya no es el mismo de hace 20 años,el sueño americano solo se puede vivir durmiendo y la realidad que pasan en las noticias es otra, mejor busquen cómo salir adelante en sus países que ir a dar lástima al ajeno aun sabiendo que a los hispanos no nos quieren, solo porque les conviene nuestra mano de obra barata pero siempre habrá discriminación y rechazo , échenle ganas paisanos, se puede sobrevivir de muchas maneras pero perdiendo la dignidad no vale la pena…

I understand those coming from Venezuela are actually coming here from literally nothing. But in all honesty America is a bad place to come to. There are so many people living homeless on the streets in every major city. And welfare is not as helpful as they used to be.

I can understand trump a lot more now and his WHY smh

This is just way out of hand. And it is on long enough. Send the army down there fully armed and fire warning shots if you have to. This Hass to stop. For people seeking asylum I can understand. But there are so many cartel members and terrorists from other countries getting through that our national security is in dire jeopardy right now. Thanks Joe Biden. Thanks for helping destroy our country for the past three years.

How so many people got here I don't understand this and how do they get here did somebody paying for this

What Americans do not understand is that there are people in other Countries who are starving because their Countries have gone bankrupt, or their government system has collapsed in those Countries. Venezuela, Brazil, Greece, Pakistan, Argentina, Haiti, Cuba, and a whole list of more of which media is not telling the American people. America itself has put those living here at risk, for refugees to come in in drones, because the more illegals they let come into America, and allow to get their citizenship, the more individuals they have who can vote either Republican or Democrat. Why, while Trump was President, did he not finish building the wall to help stop the flow of illegal immigrants from coming in over the border, when he had the resources to complete the wall on his watch? And why is Biden and Kamala just sitting back and allowing these illegal immigrants to enter the US in herds? Because there is another election coming up soon, and they have to allow these scenes to be portrayed in order to help shape the minds of the voter here in the US. The American people need to wake up and stop fighting against each other, and work together to help vote for a Presidentsl Candidate who will actually do something to change the narrative at the Border and to help the American people here in the US first. What a mess on both watches, democrats and republicans!??

I don't understand why they can't come to united state

What I don’t understand is where’re their government and their leaders? It look like the whole country is relocating to the US ? This is crazy

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.

colored people of the world if we don't know who our enemies are, when they show themselves we will be shook.we need to understand that we are in a world where we are under constant attact some openly some passive aggressive, we need to start reeducating our selfs and redirecting all our resources financial and otherwise into ourselves boycott everything, just as a start it can be done,it must be done there is no other way these people don't care about us they hate us, but the key is sacrifice and the question is are our people willing and able to make that move, freedom and respect is not given freely you have to take it, we are on our own, but don't worry their hatred for us will be there downfall.

This hurts me so much to see these people suffering so much. Please everyone let us not lose our humanity by viewing them as criminals. These could be YOU or ME or your LOVED ONES should we have been born in worse circumstances. And all that is to say we can’t hold that feeling or view and also understand that these people are a threat to our country and we cannot let them in like this.

They want to be loved by white people,they want to be buddies with the enemy not understanding the white mandate,tricks them everytime ,stop pandering to them,stop waiting for them to change cause it is not going to happen.

Blacks gotta understand racism is going anywhere. Put your foot on these white folks necks i bet they back off then. Just make a stand. It works for me. I'm 40 now. I refuse to tolerate stupidity.

Ask y'all something, why this all y'all be concerned about??‍♂️. And what I mean with that is.......all the negativeness going on within the black community which is what is hurting our race frfr. Really don't understand why all the so called pro black channels not channelling that energy toward our black community and the ignorant and negative stuff that goes on daily??‍♂️ and y'all know what um talking about✌?

Don't understand why blacks would want to go to western countries.

Racism is not going anywhere, we need understand that period. Doesn't matter we're go, that why need to stick together,

I dont know why the heck everybody seems to hate black people, even immigrants like us, however what is still difficult for me to understand is black people hating themselves, like Jamaicans hating Africans! Dude i will never get to understand that! Crazy wicked godless World we live in!

The xenophobia in this comment section is a good sample of how many Americans understand the true issues here and how it really affects Americans

Sister I completely understand! Some want to use you and some want to abuse you!

Well you only have look at their prime minister philosophy understand racism

The truth! I'm in Edmonton. I find it's worst as you go east. Only people who can't understand the disrespect will not notice. I find it blatant. I still plan on leaving with my family.

I thought everybody hates America. I don't understand it.

this is a mess, but let's not blaming Biden because it was the same shit during Donald Trump. It's not fair Americans are barely making it. I don't think they understand that what is going on with the governments in their country and why are they so corrupt is the real question that we need to ask each other.

I don't understand , president's from America Latina don't do anything? I haven't heard comments about coming from them Nicaragua, Venezuela, Colombia, etc.. THEY MOST BE I JAIL... THEY ARE NOT GOD PRESIDENT'S

This is one of the reasons Joe Biden and his administration are so disgusting. I feel as though too often are the issues that occur within the hispanic communities, or involve Hispanics, gets pushed under the rug. Ultimately neglected cause we only serve the news headline of being a migrant or Democrat voter.\nNo one cared about the 50+ immigrants that died in a truck dry van. \nNo one cares that how this will only increase and further strain an already existing housing/homelessness problem\nI truly believe the Biden administration doesn't care for Latinos/Hispanics because they'd understand the massive amount of problems they're about to allow happen to these communities.

I'm glad I no longer work with CBP. It was a good job but we were always cucked. People don't understand all the violations of law that we were told to ignore because we just couldn't handle the workload or because the local area relied financially on those who were crossing.

They don't understand we can't afford to house them all right now, they're pushing the United States into the brink of collapse. So you coming to a country to turn it into the one you're flying from

Imagine whole South-America would move to the US suddenly? What you would do? You liberals still would say everything is fine these people need to be accepted and helped in the name of tolerance? I never understand how these idiots think it is possible to let in unlimited people in a country just to look tolerant and gaining extra social credit points.

I really don't understand this. The US is an ultra-capitalistic country, where literally only the very rich can have decent lives, while everybody else struggles and is genuinely unhappy. What are those people expecting to find over there except for catastrophic levels of homelessness, drug-abuse, living paycheck to paycheck and never making it anywhere and crime rates, that are far above average, even though nowhere as bad as in Mexico?

I dont understand.... why would they even want to come here .... there's barely housing for our own why would the US even take them, how about instead of them wasting time at a stupid border to come inside the US how about they spend time working and building their own country cuz America is on its way out.

I don't understand why nobody opened fire.

Doesn’t matter what the foreigners thinks of Sikhs because they don’t know who the Sikhs are, I’m more concerned about what Indians think because it seems the government of India with its hate media are brainwashing the Hindus mindsets, Hindus never had problems with Sikhs having weapons because they know the history of the Sikhs, its the media pumping negativity about Sikhs and Khalistan 24/7 are turning the two communities against eachother, wake up people and stop letting them divide the people only to use you in their political games. Same stuff happened with the congress government in the 80’s all for votes. Anyway in America It’s not about religion or culture it’s about the Ohio state laws and the second amendment in the constitution that protects people from the law to allow people to carry weapons. I understand how much Indian government minions who are reading this comment with only half a brain want to disarm Sikhs ? but that’s not even the point here. \n\nThis cop idiot because Open carry of deadly or not weapons is legal under Ohio State law. Just like open carrying a pistol is legal, open carry of any type of knife is legal as well. The entire knife doesn’t even have to be visible in order for it to be considered “unconcealed.” The school principal already apologized to this young man and the Sikh community about this stupid mistake. So Let’s put a end to your hopes and dreams of disarming Sikhs, the world is automatically changing and becoming more Sikh like mindset everyday, just as they banned most all tobacco products in America including cigarettes in all public places. Gurus told Sikhs long ago to always stay clear of tobacco for health reasons. The world is just now catching up.\n\nDo you know why the second amendment was put in the constitution of the United States? It’s a safeguard against the government if they start abusing your freedoms and rights that Americans can fight against them, every government will always try to take our rights to control us but it’s up to us as citizens to fight back everytime. This was written in the constitution by the founders of the country because they seen what government will do if they’re giving a chance.

Right now we're expecting an epidemic surge but they're taking the data so we don't understand

I understand their situations but come here legally because we suffer from them being immigrants here being uninsured not paying taxes and all kinds of other stuff and if they can’t respect that and want to riot on the borders then use whatever force to make them understand because our borders been getting punked and I’m Hispanic saying all this

Need to use tear gas and rubble bullets . I understand it sucks in their country buts it’s making ours worse .

Multiple troops with heavy weapons. .50 cal machine guns. SAWs. Grenades. Tear gas. Only have to do it once. After that all you have to set up those weapons along the border. Once these folks understand that we WILL protect our country with deadly force if necessary this and a lot of smuggling will stop.

I understand the religious sentiments but dude should have kept his tiny knife inside a bag or his pockets. \nBrandishing like this will create more confusion and hate.

i will never understand why people want to go to a place in groups when they are not welcome. it can not be a friendly intention.

I got a simple question for All American why hasn't any American citizen looked at the border crises as I keep calling it as an invasion of our country so it's time to stand up at the border and defend our country against foreign Invaders that is an active war to try to illegally take over a border of a foreign country doesn't anybody understand that yet you're under war stupid

Majority of Hispanics don’t understand this is a major problem. If the population is growing in the US. Inflation will rise. Housing, food, gas etc. We need to deport as many illegals as we can because legal immigrants deserve the right in America legally. Also, problem with these illegal Hispanics is they don’t even attempt to learn or study English and always raise their country’s flag rather than the American flag. I’ve seen this too much. We also have a problem with Americans here. Mostly black Americans. They’re extremely lazy, having a lot of babies, use drugs, loot, lie and break in. They are over privileged and always play the victim. This kind of problem leads to our taxes going to then as well.

This isn’t India. The culture here doesn’t understand packing swords

I don’t want to send messed up, I come from Mexican dissent, I know these people want to live a better life give their kids a better life. And I know they’re poor can’t afford documentation to get a visa and then apply for a citizenship. It’s hard to get. I understand my parents went through this but it did it the right way. But I don’t agree that they should be bomb rushin the border. And putting the kids in danger. Because it’s just not a Paso that they have a cross they still have like three other check points one going Deming Nm The other one is by Las Cruces or T or C NMI \nAnd the other ones by a white sounds nm

At least someone is happy to be in america. Feel like alot of people in our country today don’t understand how lucky they are even with all the issues we have of our own. Of course this large influx of people is gonna cripple some of the economy for a while but we should hope the Mexican and other South Americans who do end up staying here after all this are able to lead a productive and good life beside us Americans.

I can understand it. I must say, if i was them and dont get legal in, but feel it is necessary, then i would also try to come illegal in. Im not in their Position, im born in a rich country and have a good peaceful life. But when i would born in Afghanistan or some countries in Afrika i would definatly try to go to a rich free peaceful country. Really.

Since you don't understand the difference between occupation and common history when talking about Ukraine and ruSSia, I assume you are russian.

This a Biden Admin blunder. When you advertise to the world that the US has free lunch, don’t be surprised when the border gets bum rushed. The Biden Admin and the Democrat part has basically allowed the likes of child, drug, human, and sex traffickers to blend in with folks desperate to flee their country. The traffickers use the people fleeing as cover, as mules. The regular people are preyed on and killed in some cases by these criminals. And all this is happening at a faster rate because we’re telling people to just come instead of doing immigration the orderly way. I pray for these people and I pray the men turn around and take that energy and that fight to the dictators that are ruining their country. (I also understand most dictators are and have been installed by the US).

Not much empathy going on in these comments. I understand why they come here, they just want the best for their families and if you were in their place you would to.

Hi, \nafter hearing this “exposé” I understand that it is the same in any developed country. There is no point of moving from one country to another when tax paying is not thought of. Remember labour is the one that builds and develops a country. One has to strategise before relocating, unless for most immigrants that manage to do it surprisingly as from many applications they did, one just went through and it is a success to go. Then, they just move to really win that opportunity although they haven’t strategise or prepare themselves financially. I learnt that in life, we pay as we live; nothing is for free.

Canada still uses 70s and 80s mentality when operating the country.\nImmigration is important, but is managed extremely poorly. Many new migrants struggle to find a home and to get the proper documents to establish themselves, like the rest of us.\nCanada allowed foreign buyers to buy properties and lands, which have driven the housing market to an insane level we see today. Canadians have to go into debt just to have a roof.\nThe current government spend too much time/money trying to look morally correct than actually doing his freaking job to balance the economy. I don't understand why Toronto and Montreal still vote for that drama teacher who is as horrendous as his father was in the 1980s. Now all we have as an alternative is a neanderthal from the conservative party.

Canada made an economy based off lying to immigrants about life here to sell them houses. \n\nIt appeals very well to some demographics cause they view the passport as a status symbol. It’s also why there are so many universities but I don’t understand why people feel ?? has a strength in education.
