The Coast Guard is telling one story about how Cubans are being handled by America — and the Border Patrol tells a much different story.
No doubt, the story coming from the BP is the one that hits us most.
The Coast Guard has reported that in just one week their crews intercepted seven vessels in the Florida Straits carrying Cuban illegals. All 58 people
were repatriated to Cuba Wednesday. In January alone, 396 Cuban migrants were repatriated.
Since October 1, the Coast Guard estimates that 2,562 Cubans have attempted to illegally migrate to the U.S. by sea. Coast Guard officials
have noted an increase in rafters since the U.S. announced a normalization of diplomatic relations with Cuba in December 2014. (Miami Herald)
However, the report from the U.S. Border Patrol tells a different story:
where they are quickly processed, given money and allowed to proceed into the USA.
In summary, since October, 2,562 illegals came via sea, most are intercepted and returned to Cuba – while 18,500 illegals who came
by land are permitted to stay, regardless of criminal history.
The message must be getting back home as to which route is the most successful – and the most profitable.
