One act of survival is fleeing danger. Whether it’s from school bullies, cartel violence or the climate, people removing themselves from the danger is first-instinct. Unfortunately, our species, like all species, are very territorial. Anyone who dares to cross into our territory without a proper invitation is considered an invader. For humans, this kind of behavior is no better exemplified than in our migration policies. To think a document would prevent people exercising their instinct to survive is ludicrous and unrealistic. People have migrated to ‘greener pastures’ from the beginning of human civilization.
