Why can’t we let people like this in instead?

I came across this article today on Facebook about this Chinese Christian trying to escape religious persecution who was denied asylum. It’s people like this who ought to have the first dibs when coming to America instead of illegals who hop over the border because these are people who face serious threats. Enjoy the article!
