I was thinking more along the lines of "Cuban Monster Garage".

You have to give those guys an A for effort, that is an awesome attempt.

Aztec, it's a sad situation. We cannot simply allow all cubans to migrate legaly, as sad as it is. If we we're to do that, hell would break loose as 90% of the population would be in florida. I feel bad for the people who have to suffer in cuba, but it's just a lose lose situation.

You realize that they will likely be incarcerated or shot on arrival.

I'd take my M82A1 Barrett, fire a shot at each limb, dismembering it, fire about 3 into the chest, and empty the clip into his head.

That was cool. They can't let them stay though. How is it legal for them to stay even if they don't get caught? So if they would've made it to shore and then the coast gaurd spotted them when they were getting out (On land) they could stay? That's not right.

The Cubans were returned to Cuba. Under US law, Cubans who reach American shores are allowed to stay while those caught at sea are usually sent home.
Is it just me or does this sound like a Survivor race or something?

Even if they make it to shore they shouldn't be able to stay

You know what? I want a Communist coup NOW in Russia. People have already forgotten what Communism does to a country and its people.

They shouldn't try to go to Florida, they should go a bit further, to Mexico. Then they can go through our non-existant customs.
