Asylum for All Citizens of High Crime-Rate Countries?

It does not seems reasonable to allow political asylum for citizens fleeing nations with high crime rates. How would one differentiate one citizen from another within that criterion when all of the citizens of Honduras or El Salvador for example, experience the dangers of high national crimes figures?

Political asylum was designed to afford individuals rather than entire nations a refuge from danger and/or death. Even large numbers of people actually targeted for elimination may be given political asylum; Jews or Armenians would have been given asylum when genocide was being wrought upon them.

It is necessary to end crime or reduce it to ordinary international standards at least in countries with very high crime statistics such that people seek political asylum. A policy that actually works to reduce crime from the U.N., Interpol the EC and the United States etc is a better way to go; a rational and realistic way to go, to benefit those nations seeking political asylum.
