There's another large caravan of migrants moving through Mexico, heading for the U.S. border. Between 6,000 and 7,000 people are filling the dusty roads of southern Mexico in a triumphant march for what they think is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Let's be clear: These are not people escaping oppression. They aren't being persecuted for their political beliefs. They are not seeking asylum protection from the United States government because they are in danger of being killed or executed by their government
They are coming to the U.S. to escape poverty. While this is an admirable goal — the goal of immigrants throughout American history — it is not a legal basis for asylum.
Tell that to Luis Garcia Villagran, a self-proclaimed Evangelical Christian and radical, who has been leading these caravans across Mexico for several years. He says that by the time they reach the border, this caravan will have 15,000 people marching.
