The caravan is mostly men who want better jobs

An article on Breitbart quoted an MSNBC reporter who said:

“From what we’ve seen, the majority are actually men, and some of these men have not articulated that need for asylum, instead, they have talked about, you know, going to the United States for a better life and to find work,”

This makes sense in that the people in the caravan have been offered asylum in Mexico but have rejected it.

It's perfectly fine that these young men want to come to America for better jobs. The problem is that America can't make room for everyone and there are 1,300,000 honest Mexicans and hundreds of thousands of honest residents of other central American countries patiently waiting in line to legally enter the US.

Why should we let rock throwing people who are perfectly comfortable breaking our law to enter our country illegally jump the line over the honest people who are waiting to enter legally?
