So this was intentional cruelty.

What was the biggest problem? This guy testifying said kids were separated and then classified as unaccompanied when they came accompanied.

Wow.

Sure, but it’s a huge turn-on for The Base.

Gotta pander.

The whole point of the policy is to be maximally cruel to deter immigration. Harm to children is a feature, not a bug.

Do the childrens parents bear any responsibility for bringing their children into a country illegally?

Can you guess who typed this quote?

Opposing illegal immigration is no different than anyone who doesn't give a substantial amount of money to every beggar he meets on the street.

Here's a suggestion. If you'd like people to consider what you say, be informed. It helps if you show you know what the Screw you're talking about.

Just a guess, but I assume you typed it, or someone typed it for you. Do you use a scribe when posting?

I can only hope that these parents are using a suitably-sized mason jar.

No it wasn't me. This person is not even a Republican now.

Absolutely -- which is why the vast majority of them will be fined (and/or jailed), and eventually deported. They will also face more harsh fines and/or jail time should they choose to be a repeat offender.

Their responsibility for their actions though doesn’t necessitate the objectionable practice of separating their children from them, and placing their children in what is more-often-than-not, jail-like settings. It also doesn’t necessitate the reprehensible abuses that many of the children have suffered (I highly recommend perusing just a handful of the filings, MARs, affidavits, etc. from the various lawsuits that have been filed by victims; many of whom abided by the law as it is currently established).

This is especially true given the alternatives that our government has at its disposal. These alternatives are highly effective (according to statistics from ICE), and have a 99%+ rate of kept ICE check-ins and court appearances. Not only are they effective, and much more humane, but they are also significantly less expensive.

They didn't bring them "illegally" if they're seeking asylum you racist mouth breather.

Everyone is opposed to illegal immigration, stop pretending that this is what you care about. You're terrified of brown people who speak differently than you do, and who have better Christian values and stronger work ethics.
