When you are a legal immigrant looking for asylum the people in check will need a waterproof reason of you being in dire danger, either you are personally threatened (but you have to somehow prove that), or some countries are on a list of being unsecure due to civil war (or latter invasions), so coming from there you will probably be accepted without further proof.
The US does not belong to those. Also think of Julian Assange. Neutrality and acting according to law does not mean much when "they" are really out to get you.

Tks.I'm in dire danger.
