The silly thing is that any asylum seeker can simply request asylum at any port of entry. There is no need to cross the border illegally. If their asylum request is deemed legitimate, they can be granted asylum. In my opinion, anyone not crossing at a port of entry should be deported post haste and denied even a summary hearing or even an opportunity to attempt to request asylum. It really is that simple.
