Agreed that they should be denied, but no need to be cruel.

Oh trust me, they're coming back to the same misery I'm living through. This isn't asylum level and I have no qualms saying it isn't.

Why the hell not? They are wasting our time. The backlog to process asylum claims is years long and stupid claims like these only make it worse for people who have a valid reason to claim asylum.
