You are absolutely correct about this situation. This is a travesty - and quite frankly, another sign that immigration policy is broken, and needs to be fixed.

Here, in this country, we have a chance to prevent an act that is barbaric - a FORCED abortion and FORCED sterilization. The people involved are FLEEING persecution because they're not willing to KILL their child. This family is trying to choose LIFE for their unborn child, and the ChiComs are going to kill it for no other reason than the parents told their police state where to shove it.

We are not talking an abstract situation here, we're talking a life - a life that an oppressive government wants to end for some reason. I, for one, do NOT think that we should be accomplices to INFANTICIDE.

I disagree with dennisw - there IS a humane solution to this. Anyone who makes it to our country OR who applies for asylum at our embassy in an effort to escape this barbaric policy that the People's Republic of China ought to be permitted to remain.

I'm hoping this ruling gets overturned, and I'm also going to write my Representatives using dead trees to make it so the laws of this country will - and I'll take on all comers over this one.

How is this any different than sending Elian back to Cuba?

Sorry but it's scam and a lie 95% of the time. You are being played for the sucker. If they can absolutely prove genuine fear of China's abortion/sterilization policies then fine. But you just won't see it.

You really don't get how desperate 3rd worlders can get in their quest to live here. I believe in lawful immigration. Not immigration via scams

Then, should you get your wish, we will have to rename our country from the "United States" to "China-West." Is that really what you want?

Your stand opens the door to rampant abuse.
