People get murdered in the US too. We had a presidential candidate who had two attempts on his life this election cycle. Dems glaze over that.

Should kids in Chicago get a pass to move to buenos Aires because Chicago is so violent? That’s our problem to solve. Mexicans have their own problems to solve. Of course electing a socialist probably won’t help. They need their own Milei.

Early in our history we had a violent Wild West. We fixed it ourselves. They can fix their own things too. They’re not incapable.

I included stats in my post acknowledging the existence of murder in the United States. To your point, if Trump decided to flee to Mexico to escape the violence, I don't believe dems would gloss over that.

I would applaud Buenos Aires if they made a compassionate allowance for hypothetical people fleeing Chicago violence.

Everyone is doing the best they can for those within their radius of compassion. It is the way it is.
