And as a Colombian, you Americans are getting a taste of the problem as well. All the talk about humanitarian and when you are subject to the same pressures as us neighboring countries in Latin America that have had to deal with this issue, you pull back. Imagine the real crisis if all Latin American countries just closed their borders to these people and the fury at the UN.

The Americans were critical of the Colombian response to Venezuelan migrants, who were angry because they came to our country demanding things and rights that we couldn't even guarantee for our own people. The Americans urged us to continue receiving migrants with barely any financial help from you or other UN Nations. Now that the US is the recipient of said migration, they are angry for the same reason. Welcome to the club Americans. I can only hope that the streets don't become more dangerous for you, seeing as how without opportunities to work they will resort to other undesirable things to make money like they did here.
