The US is and has been taking massive numbers of refugees from Latin America (how many are European nations taking from Latin America?). Latin America over the last 30 years has witnessed a lot of chaos, war, huge murder rates, etc. of nearly the scale Syria is seeing. The murder rate in Honduras for example is half the casualty rate of the Syrian civil war. How Honduras isn&#x27;t considered an active war zone I don&#x27;t know. If Honduras were the size of Syria, it would have seen upwards of 100,000 murders in just the last five years. In just seven years in Mexico, around 164,000 people were murdered in the cartel wars.<p>The US has taken in 10 million immigrants (twice the population of Denmark) from just Mexico in the last 30 some years. You don&#x27;t think those people are every bit as much refugees as the people of Syria? They&#x27;ve fled intense poverty and domestic war, and they&#x27;re willing to die to try to get across the US border to a better life.<p>How much more do you think the US can absorb exactly?
