given the recent pics/videos taken at the southern border, the majority of illegal immigrants appear to have originated from locations other than South or Central America, Europe, Asia or the Middle East. My question is not intended to be racist in nature, but numerous individuals appear to be of African origin. I'm curious that if that IS the case...how do they get to So/Central America in the first place. Do they have passports and financial where-with-all to make that happen??

May be a dumb question, but I'm still curious. TIA for all rationale answers.

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

A lot of them are Haitians. And they are not a group that will integrate well
