I wouldn’t trust crossing with any of those issues. I wouldn’t do it even without those issues. The system is too erratic and the consequences irrevocable as it turns out.

The question is, why did it take people so long to stop coming? It seems that even hell has a tourist industry. Glad they have finally woken up. There is nothing they want to see here and they are safer for staying away. Cold, hard truth of the matter!
