\Another large wave (an estimated 125,000 people) of Cuban immigration occurred in the early 1980s with the Mariel boatlifts. Most of the "Marielitos" were people wanting to escape from communism, and have succeeded in establishing their roots in the US. Fidel Castro sent some 20 thousand criminals directly from Cuban prisons, as well as mentally ill persons from Cuban mental institutions, with the alleged double purpose of cleaning up Cuban society and poisoning the USA. Those people were labeled "unadmissible" by the US government, and with time, through many negotiations, have been returned to Cuba.
You are again blustering without a point.
I understand you got a thing against Cubans.
You keep citing false factgs to bolster your dislike of them.
Its sad.
Maybe one day you will not be a racist anymore.
Dec. 14, 1984: U.S. and Cuba sign agreement to repatriate 2,746 Mariel refugees in exchange for allowing up to 23,000 new Cuban immigrants to enter the U.S. the first year, followed by 20,000 a year afterward.
Feb. 21, 1985: Deportations of undesirables begin under U.S.-Cuba agreement.
April 1, 1985: Almost five years after they arrived in the United States, INS starts the process of giving permanent resident status to Mariel refugees. At 100, Victoria Contreras becomes the first Mariel refugee to obtain U.S. residency.
May 20, 1985: After arrival of 200 deportees, Castro suspends deportation agreement in retaliation for start-up of Radio Marti, U.S. station broadcasting into Cuba.
June 23, 1993: Mariel refugee Elvis Rafael Fonseca Machado, who hijacked a National Airlines jet back to Havana in 1980, returns to South Florida from Cuba, via inner-tube raft.

200 out of 125,000 returned.
You are again blustering without a clue. Maybe some day you won't be a Rushfelcher any more.
Go ahead and show where 20,000 were returned to Cuba or admit you're full of shit.
