Regardless, even with the new stats, why don't you look up how many Americans overstay their visa in Russia or China these days. How many Americans do you see on the nightly news, locked in some cage at the bottom of a merchant ship trying to get to China , Russia? How many Americans do you see on the nightly news sitting on some dinghy trying to escape and get to Cuba, Haiti? How many Americans do you see getting caught in luggage or the cargo part of the plane, trying to escape from USA?
Again, all I'm saying is this. When it's justified I don't have a problem with it, but when it's done for no reason, and as a matter of fact hurts their tourism business, WHY DO IT???
