You probably think it was OK for FDR NOT to give them asylum here where the ship came to.......wow....which one of us has problems.

Lots of Jews were granted asylum. The ones on the St. Louis weren't -- but they weren't exactly facing death either. The US had zero reason to believe in 1939 that ANY Jews on board were in danger.
