Why is this conversation even taking place? The Haitian people are humans just like you. It is not their fault that their country is in turmoil. I have been working in Haiti for 28 years. These people are wonderful. It is the corrupt government and gangs (who are funded by the government) that are causing this huge problem.
The Haitians are trying to sail to Florida. It was the Bahamian Defence Force that apprehended them. They have no navigation equipment and are not aware of the international navigation rules. The Cubans intercepted them for getting too close to that country, so they adjusted their course to the East. That course took them too close to the Bahamas chain of islands. They had no intention of going to the Bahamas. I hope everyone understands that Haiti is a Stateless country right now and Haiti's neighbors, including the U.S., are doing nothing to stop the corruption and gang warfare that is going on there, currently. Haiti needs our help. Please don't blame the innocent Haitians who are trying to flee this situation by risking their lives to sail to Florida.

They were sailing to Florida, not the Bahamas. Do you really understand the current situation in Haiti?
