Asylum

Many Central Americans who want to come to the United States mainly come to start a new life. But others desperately come because they want to seek asylum. The reason being is many of these people are threatened by the gangs (Mara 18 &MS13) who are very violent and cause many homicides. Honduras and El Salvador are considered the most dangerous countries in the world. An example is in 2014, Honduras had a murder rate of 84.6 per 100,000 population. In which there was a total of 5,936 murders in 2014. In addition, many of these people who want to seek asylum are unaccompanied minors. Kids who leave at a young age and their parents who have no other option because if they stay they´ll eventually end up dead.
