New Zealand police arrest pair trying to enter Auckland with ‘large amount’ of KFC:
The men were arrested after allegedly trying to flee from police near the Auckland border. When their car was searched, police said they found a large quantity of KFC, as well as the cash and a number of empty ounce bags.
The arrest struck a chord with New Zealanders – especially Aucklanders, who have spent a month in a strict level four lockdown that does not allow restaurants to open or residents to order takeaway food.
[...] After the KFC arrest, a police spokesperson said “officers noticed a suspicious looking vehicle travelling on a gravel road, and upon seeing the police car, the vehicle did a U-turn and sped off trying to evade police.
[...] A breach of the Covid-19 Public Health Response Act can result in imprisonment for up to six months; or a fine of up to $4,000.
The men will appear in court for breaching the health order, and police said further charges were likely.

You skipped a bit of Mexican immigration policy. Like, Mexicans don't welcome immigrants like US Democrats do. Immigrants are tolerated, if they don't intent to stay long in Mexico.
Abortion is the number one killed of children in the United States.

Pretty much all of latin america has a similar policy: invest $XX thousand USD in a local company and you get in. Not a bad deal for USians, as cost of living is low enough to live better than the US for cheaper than anywhere outside of a slum.

I hear the disaster refugees are welcomed in Cancun if they come with money, particularly if their family name is Cruz.
