Mario replies: Thank you. However, I don't think the snide and patronising remarks by the authors whose articles you were posting were as tolerant as you are. Gabe writes: What I don't accept, is your retort, that USA is one of the most accommodative Countries in the World, on this issue. Call it as it is, please. > Mario replies: Fair enough. That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. But you could make the same criticism about pretty much any country in the world. I'm pretty sure that there are 11 million illegal immigrants in various stages of trying to let legal status in the US who may disagree with you, not to mention tens of thousands more each day. Anyone who arrives in the US and claims refugee status has their claims investigated while they stay in the country. I'd say that was pretty accomodating. However, post 9/11, certain people are scrutinised more closely, for obvious reasons. We are still at war with Al Qaeda in case you've forgotten.
