Some other country?  Name the courty.  Decribe in detail their method(s)
of tranportation.  Much much money will it take to their trip and how
much money do they have? (And while we're at it: What proportion their
yearly income is that sum?)  And lastly, what are their prosepects when
the get there.

No, the fact is that risking jail time *IS* often their best option. 
The fact that you don't understand this fact, points specifically to why
you misunderstand issues of imigration policy!

Can I get an Amen!
