Google “Mexican journalists” and you will find a good example of Mexicans with strong asylum cases. Many Mexicans do not have a good cases and do use asylum as a last ditch effort to remain in the US. However, many Mexicans have very strong asylum cases as there are – unfortunately – some pretty serious human rights abuses in that country. Take care, Jason

In fact, I cannot believe Mexicans actually warrant refugee status. The Mexicans here legally go back & forth on a regular basis; seemingly without fear. Plus, all of the Mexicans seem to be under the impression that Mexico is the greatest country in the world, why would you want or need asylum from itIbelieve this is just a last ditch effort to remain in the US and still receive government handouts and not pay income taxes. That’s certainly what all of the Mexicans here illegally, that I know, do.

I can’t believe that a rich guy who has one million dollars or more, can easily get an immigrant visa to the U.S., but a guy who had his legs cut off and was nearly murdered is having such a hard time to get asylum.
