Liberals love to use THE CHILDREN in their arguments.
Notice how they use the term SHELTERS for lefty ENCAMPMENTS and use the term ENCAMPMENTS for conservative SHELTERS.
These people are here ILLEGALLY! WE HAVE A LEGAL ASYLUM SEEKER PROCESS.
I will spoon feed you dumb fucks so all you have to do is read:

prev |
next
(a)Authority to apply for asylum
(1)In general
Any
alien who is physically present in the
United States or who arrives in the
United States (whether or not at a designated port of arrival and including an
alien who is brought to the
United States after having been interdicted in international or
United States waters), irrespective of such
alien’s status, may apply for asylum in accordance with this section or, where applicable,
section 1225(b) of this title.
(2)Exceptions
(A)Safe third country
Paragraph (1) shall not apply to an
alien if the
Attorney General determines that the
alien may be removed, pursuant to a bilateral or multilateral agreement, to a country (other than the country of the
alien’s nationality or, in the case of an
alien having no nationality, the country of the
alien’s last habitual
residence) in which the
alien’s life or freedom would not be threatened on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion, and where the
alien would have access to a full and fair procedure for determining a claim to asylum or equivalent temporary protection, unless the
Attorney General finds that it is in the public interest for the
alien to receive asylum in the
United States.
(B)Time limit
Subject to subparagraph (D), paragraph (1) shall not apply to an
alien unless the
alien demonstrates by clear and convincing evidence that the application has been filed within 1 year after the date of the
alien’s arrival in the
United States.
(C)Previous asylum applications
Subject to subparagraph (D), paragraph (1) shall not apply to an
alien if the
alien has previously applied for asylum and had such application denied.
(D)Changed circumstances
An application for asylum of an
alien may be considered, notwithstanding subparagraphs (B) and (C), if the
aliendemonstrates to the satisfaction of the
Attorney Generaleither the existence of changed circumstances which materially affect the applicant’s eligibility for asylum or extraordinary circumstances relating to the delay in filing an application within the period specified in subparagraph (B).
(E)Applicability
Subparagraphs (A) and (B) shall not apply to an unaccompanied
alien child (as defined in
section 279(g) of title 6).
(3)Limitation on judicial review
No court shall have jurisdiction to review any determination of the
Attorney General under paragraph (2).
(b)Conditions for granting asylum
(1)In general
(A)Eligibility
The Secretary of Homeland Security or the
Attorney General may grant asylum to an
alien who has applied for asylum in accordance with the requirements and procedures established by the Secretary of Homeland Security or the
Attorney General under this section if the Secretary of Homeland Security or the
Attorney General determines that such
alien is a
refugee within the meaning of
section 1101(a)(42)(A) of this title.
(B)Burden of proof
(i)In general
The burden of proof is on the applicant to establish that the applicant is a
refugee, within the meaning of
section 1101(a)(42)(A) of this title. To establish that the applicant is a
refugee within the meaning of such section, the applicant must establish that race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion was or will be at least one central reason for persecuting the applicant.
(ii)Sustaining burden
The testimony of the applicant may be sufficient to sustain the applicant’s burden without corroboration, but only if the applicant satisfies the trier of fact that the applicant’s testimony is credible, is persuasive, and refers to specific facts sufficient to demonstrate that the applicant is a
refugee. In determining whether the applicant has met the applicant’s burden, the trier of fact may weigh the credible testimony along with other evidence of record. Where the trier of fact determines that the applicant should provide evidence that corroborates otherwise credible testimony, such evidence must be provided unless the applicant does not have the evidence and cannot reasonably obtain the evidence.
(iii)Credibility determination
Considering the totality of the circumstances, and all relevant factors, a trier of fact may base a credibility determination on the demeanor, candor, or responsiveness of the applicant or witness, the inherent plausibility of the applicant’s or witness’s account, the consistency between the applicant’s or witness’s written and oral statements (whenever made and whether or not under oath, and considering the circumstances under which the statements were made), the internal consistency of each such statement, the consistency of such statements with other evidence of record (including the reports of the Department of State on country conditions), and any inaccuracies or falsehoods in such statements, without regard to whether an inconsistency, inaccuracy, or falsehood goes to the heart of the applicant’s claim, or any other relevant factor. There is no presumption of credibility, however, if no adverse credibility determination is explicitly made, the applicant or witness shall have a rebuttable presumption of credibility on appeal.
