Holy fucking shit!
Both the topic, and the reaction from some of you people is just disgusting.
This lack of sympathy makes me nauseous. The US completely and utterly, fucked up. The concentration camps are bad enough, but the separated parents and children not being in touch or even knowing where they are for months? With the risk of permanent separation?
Sure, deport them, but least freaking try to be humane about it.
This is one of those things that makes you think if US should even be considered to be among the 1st world countries anymore. Fucking barbaric.
If only all these people without emotions or care could be turned into an 8 year old boy, left in a foreign country without their mother and no contact.
i bet all the hard man internet talk would stop and they would just cry cry cry cry, pathetic.
i mean some even saying they should shoot illegals at the border? ok sure you shoot unarmed women and children be a real hero!
Then send them back with the parents or figure out how to incorporate them into the system. There are problems with immigration law in the US, but this sob story is designed to incite people like our dear Didactic to fanatical outrage for the children.
The US needs to have comprehensive immigration laws that can be enforced and are beneficial American society, while also humanely dealing with the children caught up in their parents crimes. What is your solution? Send them with the parents, move them into the usual childcare routes, or something else?
It already is, we let in so many immigrants at the same time that they segregate themselves and never integrate successfully into our countries culture, language or way of life, creating highly incompatible conflicting cultures in the middle of the united states that creates a consistently growing division that weakens the integrity of our country.
So easy to judge people when you can lean on the emotional argument instead of a legal one.
Those "made up lines" are what allow a nation to establish and maintain cultures, law and order, and governmental sovereignty. I don't hear you talking or complaining about how harsh Mexico is.. for example.. Regarding immigration.
She knowingly crossed that line, which is against that Country's law. She did it with intent, planning, and determination. If this was homocide, it would be first degree. Sympathy goes out the window at some point. And I would remind you that these rules were established BEFORE Trump took office. It is getting attention NOW because there is a Republican in office, and that Republican is enforcing laws... Existing Laws... As a President should. and it is much more tenable to cry at the otherside than accept that the Great and Venerable Obama was shady as fuck.
Actually, you are the one who is morally bankrupt. The fact that you are ok with people completely ignoring the WELL KNOWN law of this country is morally bankrupt.
Is it nice that Children and parents are getting separated? No. Is it unfortunate that their country is run terribly, and is constant state of poverty? Yes. Is it our fault? No. Does having a shitty situation excuse law breaking? By your logic, it does... In that case... I will be right back after robbing a bank because I am broke and poor. I will have you defend me and we will see how that defense holds up?
That's what I thought.
