Hmm... I'm not very far from there, I may have to go & "urge" them to fight til their dying breath...

AAAAWWWW. Poor babies! Maybe I should invite them to Thanksgiving dinner -- if they're alive by then. Does water count? If they refuse water, the whole thing could be over next week.

Win win!

Right you are! Remember what Margaret Thatcher did during the Irish hunger strike in the early 1980's. She had no sympathy for them and eventually ten of them died. Don't give into these creeps and moochers.

Screw them! Don't come into my home and make demands on me. Stay in your own country and fight to fix what you don't like. Ooohhhh yea, let's revisit the hunger strike in ...... say a month. :-)

What a bunch of spoiled brats. My kids try to pull this about once - usually when they're about two. They end up in their room - hungry - for a while. Their stomachs quickly end their rebellion. I would suggest the same here.

These people are spoiled brats.

let's see ... 3 threes is the old rule from survival school:::

3 minutes without air
3 days without water
3 weeks without food

we only have to wait a month! -- j

Simple solution. Offer them a one way trip to their country of origin or a small spot to be buried in when they starve themselves.

Hmmm. Interesting. I like this hunger strike instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUb45...

Strange, how the prisoners at Gitmo did the same thing.

Saying this... They're not prisoners, so they have the right to not eat if they don't want to. Look at the money they're going to safe by not feeding them.

Of course, the solution is go back from whence you came. IIRC nothing states that we will automatically grant anyone refugee status - each case is reviewed and determined on a case-by-case basis. If they don't like feeling "detained", then send them back to their point of origin where they can no longer accuse us of "detaining them".
