Curious -- what country are you from?  You are posting from a USA BBS
(perfectly ok) but sound like you are from another country based on your
comments.

True.

Also true.

Also true.

However, if your reason for requesting asylum was because the gangs
where you were told you that you either had to let your ten year old son
be initiated into the gang or that they would kill your entire family --
that should be enough.  In the regions where the southern immigrates are
coming from, that is not atypical.  The region is more controlled by the
gangs than by the government.
