"Good job of ignoring the facts about Cuban citizens being murdered while trying to flee to the US Steve..."
I did not ignore the fact that you raised this, I already responded that to my knowledge it is not true. If you can give me one specific example I will check into it, but just repeating the same accusation will not make it true.
As for people leaving Cuba, I have also pointed out that a million regularly come out and rally for the revolution. It is not surprising that some people still want to leave Cuba for a richer country (due to imperialism) like the United States. The same migration can be seen from capitalist third world countries such as Mexico, Haiti, and Puerto Rico.
Yes, some Cuban athletes want to come to the U.S. where they will become rich, yet others want to stay in Cuba where they support the revolution. Remember the Cuban boxers at the Olympics that ran into the audience, not to leave Cuba, but to stop the burning of a Cuban flag?
