Title: Family Separation
Post by: poche on June 18, 2018, 04:37:20 AM
A teenager at a US Border Patrol facility had to teach other children how to help change the diaper of a young girl who had been separated from family members.
 According to the Associated Press (https://www.apnews.com/9794de32d39d4c6f89fbefaea3780769), a 16-year-old girl in a South Texas facility took care of a four-year-old girl she didn't know for at least three days when they were kept in the same chain-link cage together.
 The teenager told the story to Michelle Brane, director of migrant rights at the Women's Refugee Commission, who spent time at the facility on Friday.
 "She had to teach other kids in the cell to change her diaper," Brane said. Agents initially thought the four-year-old was younger, in part because she wasn't talking or communicating with anyone. As it turned out, the girl only spoke K'iche, a language indigenous to Guatemala, and not Spanish.
 "She was so traumatized that she wasn't talking," Brane told the Associated Press. "She was just curled up in a little ball."
 After an attorney began asking questions about the girl's situation, agents found the girl's aunt, who had been kept in a different part of the facility, and reunited the two. The facility houses 1,100 adults and children, but hundreds of children are reportedly kept apart from their parents or other family members.
 The Associated Press reported seeing one cage with 20 children inside.
 In April, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced a "zero tolerance" policy toward migrants crossing the US border illegally. Adults can now be tried as criminals for entering into the US illegally, causing them to lose custody of their children.
 Nearly 2,000 children have been taken from their parents since Sessions announced the new policy.
 Most children are sent to live with family members, but until then, they are largely housed in about 100 government-run centers, one of which limits kids to two hours of outdoor time (http://www.businessinsider.com/migrant-kids-detention-center-pictures-details-us-mexico-border-casa-padre-2018-6#casa-padre-is-licensed-to-house-only-older-children-aged-10-to-17-shelter-staff-estimated-that-10-of-the-children-currently-housed-at-casa-padre-were-separated-from-their-parents-at-the-border-the-remaining-likely-arrived-in-the-us-unaccompanied-4) a day.

 How can criminality be ascribed to a child in diapers? Why are the children not in foster care? Is this policy of gratuitous separation not a form of child abuse that is sanctioned by teh Trump administration?

This abuse was going on during Obama's administration too.  

Obama deported Christians while he allowed non Christians in.   

Obama had 8  years to fix the problem but immigrants were abused and exploited for political purposes.  

Obama was busy promoting ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity in our schools. He wanted men to use ladies rooms  He went to Africa trying to force sodomy acceptance in exchange for food and electric.  

And immigrants under Obama were also gender abused.

And where is the President of Guatemala?  Why isn't anyone criticizing him?  Why isn't anyone talking about the American and European companies paying people unfair wages in Guatemala.      It shouldn't cost so money to come to USA to work or become citizens legally.

It is true that they're leaving some of the world's most sordid, corrupt, gang-riddled and violent countries to come here. Two of the countries with the highest murder rates are in Central America; Honduras and El Salvador. Many of these people, if they return to their home countries, will likely die.

At the same time, they committed a crime. Is it right that the parents be separated from their children? No. But illegal immigration is a crime and countries have to protect their borders. You can maybe let the decent men in after careful vetting. 

The Latino immigrants are some of the hardest-working and most honest people I've ever met. I'm showing my bias as a product of them, but that's what I've noticed. Either way, it's not an ideal situation. If this shooting in the foot keeps going on from him, he might lose in 2020.

When you take a person's child from them you become responsible for that child. Housing children in cages is child abuse. If you were to house your children in cages like that you would go to jail once you were found out. Leaving a child wearing diapers in hte primary care of a teenager does not constitute taking care of that child. Those children need to be in foster care.

Ignoring for a minute the large numbers of single men (many of whom are criminals) who are illegally coming into our country and who will crash into your car without insurance (causing everyone’s rates to go up), or steal, deal drugs, commit tax fraud, or worse...violent crimes.

If we consider the families that are illegally entering our country, these people are in a bad situation even if we don’t lock them up.  So when INS agents put them in prison for VIOLATING THE LAW, it’s not our fault they were trying to escape a worse situation (like starvation in Venezuela or social chaos and 20% interest rates in Argentina.  Not to mention the drug crimes and murders that have been going on in Central America for decades).  The point is, these people are in a bad spot but it’s not because of the US.  Their home countries are uninhabitable but that doesn’t mean we “owe” them citizenship.  Mexico won’t help them (because their immigration laws are tough) and we’re the “evil” country?

I’m not a fan of what these people are going through but the process must have order and we can’t let in anybody.  I think that Trump is doing 2 things by temporarily splitting up these families.  (And I do think the family splits are temporary).

1) reminding these families that they must abide by US law when wanting to enter the country.  If they don’t, there will be consequences which will be painful.  If there are no consequences to crossing the border illegally then it will never stop and the US will cease to exist eventually.  If these families have a “dose of reality” then maybe those that don’t really need assylum will go elsewhere and then we can help those who truly need it.  Many people come to the US because they think they will get “free stuff” when they could’ve just as easily stayed where they were.  

2) Trump/Sessions are putting pressure on the democrats to compromise on immigration.  The democrats want open borders, socialized immigration and limited govt activity.  Why?  Because this is how they get “new voters”.  Most of these people come from communistic/socialized countries so they are already infected with anti-US, anti-rule-of-law thinking. They will automatically vote democrat because the Democrats give them “free stuff”.  

Secondly, open borders facilitate drug, child, and weapon trafficking which the “deep state” is involved in and many of the democratic (and republican) elites get kickbacks for helping to keep this activity going.  

The rule of law and secure borders is mostly about keeping out drugs, and gangs rather than being “mean” to families.  Secure borders means stopping children and women who are abducted by these gang members and then sold all over the world.  These Slaves are in a much worse situation than families who are searching for a better life (when the one they have currently is acceptable).  These Slaves are used, abused, sold, raped, tortured and then killed.  It’s an epidemic. 

Once borders are secure THEN we can properly vet and allow in good families and offer them a better life.  Right now, we need to worry about worse things.  Drugs, slavery and weapons trafficking are endangering American families, who should come first.

Easy answer: Only come to the US in the legal way, then there will be no risk of your children becoming separated from you.

It is not just the family separations that I object it is the conditions in which the children are being kept. What criminality does a child in diapers have that it must be kept in a cage? Once you take a child from its parents then you become responsible for its well being. If you were to place your child in a cage in the way that these children are being treated you would be charged with child abuse. The judge would probably throw the book at you. What these agents are doing with these children would be considered criminal if anybody else were to do the same thing.

No, those children, along with their parents should be sent back from whence they came.  If their home country is in ruins then their men should be fighting to rebuild it to make it suitable, not running away.  What they lack, besides a functioning government, is male leadership and organization; all the free stuff in the world cannot make up for those shortcomings.

Poche has a point.  If the parents do not want to be separated from their children, they should be given the option of returning back into Mexico.  If separation is required because the parent committed other crimes that should be prosecuted, the children should be returned to their country of origin so that thier own nation can take care of them.

This is the crux of the matter when it comes down to it. Yes, the majority of them are coming from parts of Latin America with the highest homicide rate in the world. Yes, the drug trade and rampant presence of street gangs is one of the many factors why northern Central America is disintegrating into war zone levels of violence, with thousands of homicides every year. 

At the end of the day, though, they entered the country illegally. If they can be sent somewhere else without being shot to death, then send them somewhere else. America must focus on Americans first and domestic issues first. Though the word for "American" in their native Spanish ("americano") refers to someone from any point in the two continents, they are not Americans until they come here and come here legally.

What's happening in Texas is sad with the kids if the media wants to put on that sort of veneer, but it's nothing new at all. The Obama administration wasn't soft on immigration (https://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/obama-family-deportation-raids-217329) in the least. This is only a news story, the media having a fit, solely because Donald Trump is president.

In the U.S.:

There is not enough affordable housing for all of the besieged peoples of the many corrupt and dysfunctional Third World countries in the world.

Not enough unskilled and low-skilled jobs that they can fill in this country, if all of them were to be given equal opportunity to enter...

Not enough public assistance to compensate for the difference in what they can earn vs. the COL in the U.S., anywhere.

And it is utterly unjust in Catholic moral theology to prefer one group of besieged peoples merely because of geographic proximity.  

This is all even apart from their illegal entry.  

If the U.S. is going to make exceptions on the basis of conditions in any particular country, it must do so universally.  Differentiated policies and practices based on common principles are or on their face unjust, and there is nothing in Catholic moral theology to support such preferences.

Most of them aren't from Mexico and they can't stay in Mexico because mexican immigration laws are tougher than ours.  You presume they didn't know about the possibility of separation before they got close to the border.  Maybe they were given the option to return where they came from and decided that a short-term prison stay (where they can get free food, clothes, medicine, a bed and a shower) is worth it, when the alternative is Venezuela where an apple costs $150,000 in inflated $ and people are starving and dying in hospitals.  Venezuela is a war zone right now and Mexico isn't helping and the media is silent on all of this.

See above.  Sounds good in theory, but in practice, there's not an easy answer.

Also, how does the US return a child, parent-free, back to Columbia?  Pay for a first-class airline ticket?  Have INS agents drive them back?  Many of these people are 1-2,000 miles from their original home.  They have no way back because they're broke and have no options.  It's a mess.  At least we're giving them food, shelter, medicine, clothing, etc in the detention centers.  That's more than they receive from their home countries and mexico combined.

Trump/Sessions are doing the right thing (until a change in law can be passed in Congress).  Right now, we MUST help these people (as we are doing, by providing FREE shelter, food, clothing, medicine and showers) but we must also CREATE CONSEQUENCES and make them not want to come again.  We have to create an atmosphere of law so that people realize they can't take advantage of our charity.  These people need to realize that traveling 500-2,000 miles to the border will not get them any long-term solutions to their problem, so they must look elsewhere, or...go through the proper legal process for citizenship.  There are other options for these people.  God will provide.

I have 2 close friends from college - 1 from Brazil and 1 from Sweden.  Both went to college on small sports scholarships; they wanted to have an American experience.  They graduated in 4 years, were good students.  Both got green cards and worked after college - 1 was a manager at a large hotel chain.  The other continued his studies because he wanted to go to med school.  The guy who worked at the hotel chain waited for 2 years, after hiring a lawyer, for news on citizenship - never got it.  Ended up moving to Canada and married his girlfriend, who was canadian.  Still loves the US and would like to live here but can't.

The Brazilian saw what happened to his friend and also moved back home.  He decided against med school but now works for a large, financial marketing company and started a successful brewery on the side.

These are the types of immigrants that we want - smart, successful, hard-working.  They can't get citizenship because everything's clogged up with illegals.

Hopefully the children won't be separated for long but rejoined with their border-jumping parents in a large airliner headed south. The children should not be our wards-and neither should the parents. This is a Soros created human rights issue with emotional media optics so the communist/ democrats can beat up on Trump.
 Where is Pope Francis in all of this? He heads the Universal Church, which has access and relief services to these countries of origin. The US Is a single sovereign nation who needs to address the poor already here- not an international global institution like the Church whose secondary goal (after the salvation of souls) should be the corporal acts of mercy.  ( But that isn't really the point for the globalists, is it)

Once you take a child away from a parent the welfare of the child becomes your responsibility. Acting in a way toward children that keeps them in a cage would be considered criminal in any court of law. There are American citizen parents who are in jail for having done the same thing. Wearing a police badge or an ICE badge doesn't give you a license to violate the Law of God.

A) Don't take this personally, but that last sentence is some truly jarring NO bishop kowtowing. It's almost cult-like. These Novus Ordo bishops are all mostly milquetoast and put politics ahead of the Catholic faith. This is not violating the Law of God. What about 60 million abortions since Roe v. Wade? Sodomy enshrined as counterfeit marriage. So many other things in this world are actual violations of the Law of God.

B) American citizens aren't in jail for crossing the border illegally... because they're already American citizens.

Separating children, possibly.

If I seemed uncouth to you on this, please accept my apologies. It's just that when one is raised by legal immigrants, they typically take a hardline stance on this issue. 

My parents are Democrat and a vague semblance of a free-market libertarian. He does not vote and I've only recently heard him say anything political. They, because they spent the time and money to come here via New York and Puerto Rico, take a very right-wing stance on it.

Quote from article in WND:

'Reflecting its frustration, the White House press office declared:
“We can’t deport them, we can’t separate them, we can’t detain them, we can’t prosecute them. What (the Democrats) want is a radical open-border policy that lets everyone out into the interior of this country with virtually no docuмentation whatsoever.”
Where many Americans see illegal intruders, Democrats see future voters.'

The Truth about Separating Kids From Parents at the Border


There’s been a lot of talk about separating children from their parents at the border in recent days. Depending on who you ask, it’s either a complete necessity or an absolute evil. Here at UnitedVoice, we know that appearances can be deceiving; until you truly start to dig into the “why” of a situation, you can’t possibly know whether those public viewpoints are true. The media, politicians (from both sides), and even social media can influence how we feel and cause us to “fall for” fake news.
We decided to do a little bit of digging into this issue to see what the truth about separation really was. It turns out the answer isn’t straightforward; many people have the wrong idea about why and how it’s happening.
• First things first: Yes, sometimes children are separated at the border. To deny this fact would be tantamount to lying. Additionally, some of the videos and images you’ve seen of children detailed are, in fact, true.
• What isn’t true is the full story. You’re being told that children are indiscriminately being separated from their parents, either because the US wants to punish them and dissuade future immigrants or because border officials are “cruel.” This is false.
• In fact, multiple I.C.E. members and border patrollers have spoken up to state that removing children from their parents is undesired, uncommon, and heartbreaking. First Lady Melania Trump also stated that she “hates to see” children separated.
• To explain why and when child separation occurs, we need to go all the way back to 1997, during the Clinton Administration. At the time, government officials signed the Flores Consent Decree into order. It stated that children who are not accompanied by an adult could be held no more than 20 days at a time.
• However, adults who cross the border into America illegally are committing a crime – even if they bring children across in hope of a better life. Thus, they must be arrested and detained. If they claim asylum, it can take months or even years to process that claim – far longer than the government is permitted to hold their children.
• Officials are left with two options: release the adults with their children on their own recognizance, never to see them again. Or, turn the children over to the HHS while their parents are imprisoned and unable to care for them.
• There is a third option: release the children to their parents if and when they agree to be deported back to their home countries immediately. They always have the option to opt to go home.
• Children who come into the care of the HHS aren’t left in emergency shelters, such as those witnessed in videos, long-term. They may be temporarily housed there because I.C.E. quite literally does not have anywhere for them to go. While there, children are provided with care, counseling, food, and support.
• Once HHS steps in, most children are placed with migrant family members already in the United States. Some are released to the foster system, while others are sent home with relatives.
• The problem with ramping migration right now stems from previously lax arrangements that saw significant numbers of adults released if they brought children across the border. Families have capitalized on this to gain access to the United States, quickly disappearing, never to be seen again.
• When families disappear after entering the United States, it puts their children at great risk. Research shows children often go without medical care, without proper schooling, and in some cases, without shelter or protection.
• No one likes separating children from their parents, especially when children are still in toddlerhood or pre-teen ages. But it just isn’t an option to release them into the country or let them stay in prison with their parents. In terms of traumatic experiences, staying in an emergency shelter and then moving in with relatives is far less problematic.
• A final point to consider is the fact that we simply do not provide border services with enough money to house children and families together. There are only approximately 3,000 family units available; migrant numbers far exceed the availability.
• If the separation bothers you, you have options to resolve it. Get involved; lobby the government for change. Ask the Trump administration to remove the Flores Decree and allot more money into expediting true asylum cases so parents and children don’t need to be separated. It’s about helping those who really need it, not those who simply smuggle in children to get in illegally.

I get that people are upset about the kids, but they don't seem to understand that it's no different than when anyone else breaks the law. What do they propose? That we just let everyone in, unscreened? That the kids go to jail with the parents?

I find it difficult to understand how ANYONE who checks Mexico's immigration laws are severe. In South America, Columbians used to charge the boarder prior to chaves taking over. They, back then would rather live on the side of the mountain by the airport then to be in Columbia. In Argentina, they would fire on Bolivians who were attempting to cross the boarder. Now in England, France and Germany they were more humane to immigrants and GUESS WHAT! Merkel is about to get thrown out of her job since she opened boarders to all. In Paris, they have Muslims (no go zones for police) taking up streets without police intervention since they fear being killed.And then there's Englan, enugh said. The cost of immigrants is huge and a burden on the country they're in. If you want to break the rules and get caught: Suck it up buttercup. If you want in do it right or face the consequences.

unitedvoice.com

Democrats just want future voters and the military needs future soldiers to fight wars for an ever expanding Israel.
Mexico has very tough immigration policies and everyone that is not a Mexican Citizen will be immediately deported.
Mexico is not taking in any Muslim migrants and refugees.
It is the mental illness of Liberalism that demands open borders. The future price we will pay is an every growing
crime and drug problems and a very corrupt government.

The Democrats only worry about the illegal alien children. They have no concerns for the thousands of American citizen children who are homeless, living in poverty, or in foster care because their parents were arrested. Nancy Peℓσѕι is willing to stand for 8 hours in her stinky stilettos for illegal alien children all while stepping over the bodies of children sleeping on the streets of California in filth with human feces and drug needles surrounding them. The Dems are all about putting on shows. They have no real issues to run on, so they have to create drama and have the fake media push the narrative. No talk about how 80% of the illegal children who arrived in the USA came as unaccompanied minors with no parents or guardians, and a large number of of the children with "parents" are actually with adults who are not their parents. By allowing the Dems to push their agenda for open borders, and allowing anyone with children to enter the country without question, gang members and drug dealers have learned about the stupidity of the left, and are bringing children to provide cover to easily enter the country with no question. Then, the taxpayers are getting stuck with the bill topping $1 billion per year to care for these children, and billions more to fight off the criminal activities of the gang members and drug dealers we let in. The Dems are trying to use these tactics to increase their voting base. They could care less what happens to American citizens. Remember this in the fall when it comes time to vote.

That is true, American citizens are not in jail for crossing the border illegally. There are some American citizens in jail for keeping their children in cages. That is against the law of the United States and it is also against the Law of God.
Stop parroting MSM talking points. Any room big enough to house 20 children is not a cage, no matter what the walls are made from.
.
I think they're doing a decent-enough job attempting to provide shelter for thousands of children within the span of a few weeks.
.
If thousands of parents were suddenly arrested in your home town, what would you expect the situation to look like six weeks later?
.
These kids are fed and safe and I hope we can see legislation soon that expedites their asylum claims so they can get headed back to their home countries. Perhaps our legislators will throw in some funding for charitable organizations providing assistance in South American countries. You can't relocate every disadvantaged person in the world, but we can encourage and fund more organizations who provide assistance before people need to become migrants.

I have to amend my comparison here as I was duped by mainstream news coverage. According to DHS, five-sixths of the children currently being sheltered arrived unaccompanied. Their parents were not arrested as they didn't come with them to begin with.

I’ve crossed more than a few international borders. I can tell you that drugs and guns are being exchanged at the border daily. Juarez is a border town and one of the most dangerous cities this hemisphere. People are kidnapping migrants and selling their live organs. Why you you cross through that with an infant then throw the infant in the river and risk the infant dying in the dessert? These kids are lucky they did not die in the dessert or worse!!! Upon being reunited with their irresponsible parents they might eventually die in the dessert on their next attempt. Everyone virtue signaling about the kids being separated from their parents. They should be separated. They should be placed in foster care and taken away but they’re not citizens so they can’t do that. 

Respectable illegal immigrants leave their children with a relative and send back money until they can travel back. Why are suddenly infants entering? What is this about? Government benefits? Better schooling? Cause they’re obviously not working or producing. No decent immigrants will cross that border with infants.

None of these left-wing politicians or journalists get upset that are country is directly involved in the illegal trade of drugs and guns that makes this crisis possible in the first place. This country has probably destroyed hundreds of thousand of families before they even reached the border.

Absolutely - no one's talking about this in the mainstream media. No one.

Central America and northern Mexico don't devolve into war zone levels of violence by happenstance. The United States is the world champion of destroying other countries for their own selfish gain.

Quote from article in WND:

'Reflecting its frustration, the White House press office declared:
“We can’t deport them, we can’t separate them, we can’t detain them, we can’t prosecute them. What (the Democrats) want is a radical open-border policy that lets everyone out into the interior of this country with virtually no docuмentation whatsoever.”
Where many Americans see illegal intruders, Democrats see future voters.'

If this had been the result of a natural disaster then I could see them having problems accommodating all these children. But this is the result of a policy change. If you want to deport them then put them on planes and send them away. If you take the children away from the parents because you wish to make a prosecution then you are responsible for the well being of those children. With the implementation of this policy change it would have been foreseen that there would be a large number of children involved. Keeping small children in jail or jail like conditions is still considered child abuse.

Who's going to pay for all these planes, bro?  Let's see, the Gonzalez family needs to fly to Mexico City, the Luis family to Guatemala, the Sanchez family to Costa Rica and the Smith family goes to Columbia.  4 families x 4 people = 16 international plane tickets at a cost of $1,000 each.  So $16,000 for 16 people?  And american taxpayers are going to pay for this?  ARE YOU NUTS?!  THIS WOULD INCREASE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS COMING TO THE US.  Everyone would come to the border to get a free plane ticket anywhere in the world.  We'd be bankrupt in a matter of months.  And what would stop these people from coming BACK to get more free travel?

Your arguments are pure idealism and make no sense in the real world.

If you take the children away from the parents because you wish to make a prosecution then you are responsible for the well being of those children.
The parents who illegally brought these children across an INTERNATIONAL border, under dangerous conditions, are responsible for the risks and issues which happen to their children if they get caught crossing such a border.  Most well-meaning parents would leave their children at home with relatives and go to the border alone, looking for a green card, and then send for their children later.

In theory, the US is within it's legal rights to SHOOT THESE PEOPLE who try to enter the country illegally.  You get that?  The fact that we don't shoot them, or send out packs of wild dogs, or use drones to end their life is already a MAJOR ACT OF CHARITY.  Then we HUMANELY take them into detention centers, FEED them, CLOTHE them, give them MEDICINE, a BED, and whatever else.  IT'S ALL FREE!  WHAT IS MORE CHRISTIAN THAN THAT?

If someone tries to enter your house, are you obligated to let them in, feed them, give them your bed and care for their children until the courts have time, 30 days later (at minimum) to review whether or not they should be in your house and where they should go now?  Or would you call the cops and complain that a family is trying to break down your back door?  What would happen if the cops came to your house and arrested this family?  The parents would be sent to jail and the children WOULD BE SEPARATED and sent to foster care.  HOW IS THIS ANY DIFFERENT THAN THE BORDER?

Again, you argue from pure emotion and idealism.  No common sense.

With the implementation of this policy change it would have been foreseen that there would be a large number of children involved. Keeping small children in jail or jail like conditions is still considered child abuse.
There have ALWAYS BEEN children involved when it comes to immigration.  So 2,000 out of 12,000 children were separated, per DHS statistics.  That's only 16%.  And most likely they were separated because we weren't sure if the "relative" of the child was actually their relative.  You do realize that drug lords and terrorists ABDUCT children and bring them across the border as a cover, right?  Then they sell the child (or worse) once they don't need them anymore.  Most likely, the drug lord killed the family of the child as well.  So the US is trying to STOP cнιℓd тrαffιcKING when such separations occur.  Again, looking at the statistics, 84% of families ARE NOT SEPARATED.

If this had been the result of a natural disaster then I could see them having problems accommodating all these children. But this is the result of a policy change. If you want to deport them then put them on planes and send them away. If you take the children away from the parents because you wish to make a prosecution then you are responsible for the well being of those children. With the implementation of this policy change it would have been foreseen that there would be a large number of children involved. Keeping small children in jail or jail like conditions is still considered child abuse.
Yes, train the children to see that if they commit a crime nothing will happen to them, in fact they will be cared for. There is no disaster, they are economic migrants, here to make money and send it home to Mexico, stealing it from the American economy, or to take advantage of our welfare system. Wake up, and stop acting like the communists, and Jєωs who are promoting this destructive narrative in throughout the world, almost entirely in white countries.

Who's going to pay for all these planes, bro?  Let's see, the Gonzalez family needs to fly to Mexico City, the Luis family to Guatemala, the Sanchez family to Costa Rica and the Smith family goes to Columbia.  4 families x 4 people = 16 international plane tickets at a cost of $1,000 each.  So $16,000 for 16 people?  And american taxpayers are going to pay for this?  ARE YOU NUTS?!  THIS WOULD INCREASE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS COMING TO THE US.  Everyone would come to the border to get a free plane ticket anywhere in the world.  We'd be bankrupt in a matter of months.  And what would stop these people from coming BACK to get more free travel?

Your arguments are pure idealism and make no sense in the real world.
The parents who illegally brought these children across an INTERNATIONAL border, under dangerous conditions, are responsible for the risks and issues which happen to their children if they get caught crossing such a border.  Most well-meaning parents would leave their children at home with relatives and go to the border alone, looking for a green card, and then send for their children later.

In theory, the US is within it's legal rights to SHOOT THESE PEOPLE who try to enter the country illegally.  You get that?  The fact that we don't shoot them, or send out packs of wild dogs, or use drones to end their life is already a MAJOR ACT OF CHARITY.  Then we HUMANELY take them into detention centers, FEED them, CLOTHE them, give them MEDICINE, a BED, and whatever else.  IT'S ALL FREE!  WHAT IS MORE CHRISTIAN THAN THAT?






The US may have a "legal" right to shoot these people but that would go against the fifth commandment in the Law of God. As far as paying for the planes if the government wants to deport them then the government should pay for the deportation. It is a lot less expensive to put undesirable aliens on airplanes and sending them back to their home countries than to pay to incarcerate them in prison for an indeterminate amount of time.

When you take a child away from its parent then you become responsible for the well being of that child. When a government official abuses a child in the name of "government policy" then his culpability is greater than if it was just anybody.

To treat small a small child as a criminal is insane and immoral. Placing small children in jail is still child abuse. It oesn't matter who the children are or where they come from child abuse is still child abuse.

If you try to break into a bank, you will get shot.  Tresspassing is against the moral law.  Companies (and nations) have a right to defend themselves.  ILLEGAL immigrants are INTRUDERS.

I noticed you DODGED the analogy of the illegal immigrants who tried to break into your back door and stay at your house, for an indeterminate amount of time, until the courts figure it out.  I guess charity ends when it inconveniences YOU.

If a parent takes their child with them to rob a bank, and they get caught, the child does not go with the parent to jail.  Same situation here.

You're assuming abuse, based on the media's half-truths and lies.  Outside of the separation from the parent (which is necessary, in some cases, and only happening 16% of the time), there is no abuse happening.

Quote
Placing small children in jail is still child abuse.
Where are they supposed to go?  Let them back out into the desert ALONE?  Call their relatives to come pick them up?  Oh, wait, we can't do that because their relatives are poor.

The situation the US faces is the equivalent to a 30 babies being left on your doorstep in the middle of the night, as women used to do when they left their children at the doorsteps of a convent or church.  How are you going to take care of 30 babies until the State figures out where to put them?  It will probably be a few weeks until they locate foster families for all of them.  Imagine your house, where you have to unexpectedly care for 30 babies for 1-2 weeks.  Would it be a pretty sight?  No, it would look awful.  You'd have makeshift beds and clothes everywhere.  Your house would look like the worst daycare on the planet - a disorganized mess.

Then the media shows up and wants to interview you and they takes some pictures, and "boom" you're on the front cover of the news with the media lying and "spinning" the story (for clicks and ads) so it sounds "juicier" to the public.  AUTHORITIES INVESTIGATING LOCAL FAMILY RAISING 30 BABIES IN A 1,500 SQ FT HOUSE.

Then the "out of context" interviews start:
Interview A - "I'm his neighbor and I tried to help for a few days but I couldn't handle all the dirty diapers.  They are everywhere.  The stench is overwhelming.  The house is a mess."

Interview B - "I don't know why he doesn't get help from the authorities.  (which you are; they told you to "hang in there for a few days")  He's trying to do this alone and it's irresponsible."

Interview C - "What is he thinking?  Does he even know how to take care of a baby?  These children need to be cared for by experts."

And so, you are cast as an idiot, a hard-headed citizen who isn't trying to work with the state to fix the problem and you are "abusing" the kids because dirty diapers are everywhere and the house is a mess.

See how the media can spin things? ?? ??  DON'T TRUST THE MEDIA.

The "parents" send their 12 year old daughters by themselves among the coyotes that smuggle them into the USA to get raped multiple times along the way. These are not real parents, their children are just chattel to them. Unfortunately, the faith, their only hope of civilizing, has been taken from them by their masonic  government, and what you have left are beasts. The savageness is in the raw with the poor because they do not have the money to cover it up with mansions, plastic surgery, abortions, Merecedes Benz.....  The rich in Mexico have solved the problem by aborting their children and taking advantage of the cheap labor to live "clean". Until South America returns to the true faith LIVED, they will remain as just another Africa.

In the USA, if I leave my 12 year old daughter in the car reading a book with the air conditioning running for 3 minutes while I pickup my laundry, I get arrested.

President Trump started off his day in attack mode (as is almost ubiquitous these days), exclaiming that "The Russian Witch Hunt is Rigged," and how poll number show Americans rapidly losing faith in the 'Russia collusion' narrative. All of which explains their sudden shift to a new narrative - hitler-like separation (and caging) of poor desperate illegal immigrant children from their loving caring illegal immigrant parents.
While the media has been loathed to admit it - the separation policy is not a hitler-confirming Trump decision, it has been in place for many years and, as Trump tweeted, Obama faced similar headlines (though somehow was not compared to Hitler and lambasted in the media)...
Then took direct aim at The Democrats lack of a solution...
But as The Automatic Earth's Raul Ilargi Meijer (https://www.theautomaticearth.com/2018/06/images-of-children-crying/) explains so eloquently below, the pedophastry and bigoteering of politicians everywhere (ably assisted by a subservient liberal media) has enabled 'fake news' to become fact in an ever-increasing divergence from reality.
The two most viral photographs of the ‘Trump Separation Scandal’ have now been debunked, or at the very least been proven to have been used ‘out of context’. This is a dangerous development, as are the reasons to use them the way they have been. Both pictures are of children who had not been separated from their mothers at all. But both were used to depict just that: a child being taken away from its mother.
What’s dangerous about this is, first, that those who spread the narrative regardless of the truth may next permit themselves to use images from entirely different locations or times to make their point. Yes, children have been taken from parents at US borders. And attention for that is warranted, very much so. But playing loose with the facts turns those facts into a mere narrative in which nobody can tell fact from fiction anymore.
First, a week ago already, I saw this on RT: Debunked: Viral Image Of Crying, Caged Toddler ‘Detained By ICE’ Not What It Seems (https://www.rt.com/usa/429956-caged-boy-immigration-debunk/)
Quote
A distressing image of a crying toddler locked in a barred cage after purportedly being detained by US immigration officials has gone viral – but despite online claims, it does not actually depict what has been alleged. The image, which shows a little boy crying in a cage as he looks out between its bars, was shared by activist journalist and undocuмented migrant Jose Antonio Vargas as a comment on the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown on families.
In the same thread, Vargas admitted that he came across the photo on a friend’s timeline and was still looking for the original source. Nevertheless, the snap quickly went viral with Vargas’ post garnering more than 23,000 retweets and many others sharing the image across their own social media accounts.
(https://www.blacklistednews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/BoyInCage.jpg)(https://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/styles/inline_image_desktop/public/inline-images/BoyInCage.jpg?itok=FHvDukCg) (https://www.blacklistednews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/BoyInCage.jpg?itok=FHvDukCg)
Quote
Vargas explained that he shared the photo because when he was detained by ICE in McAllen, Texas in 2014, he encountered children who were locked up there. “It wasn’t okay then; it’s not okay now,” he wrote, adding that he’s been outraged about the incident for years.
It has since emerged that the picture was in fact not from a detention facility at all, and instead was taken at a protest against Trump’s immigration policies held on June 10 outside Dallas City Hall. The demonstration organized by Brown Berets de Cemanahuac was held to call out the policy of family separation and confining undocuмented children.
Ergo: an activist journalist and undocuмented immigrant makes it look as if a picture depicts something that in reality it did not. Note also that the article says he wanted to comment on the Trump immigration crackdown, because he has memories of the Obama immigration crackdown, when he saw children locked up. But then, hey, that’s social media, right? Anyone can say anything.
It’s different, though, when TIME Magazine uses such politics. And its editor-in-chief defends the use of the picture by saying it was the most visible symbol of something, even though he knew full well that the photo didn’t depict that something. That’s a mighty slippery scale. If they could have achieved the same effect with a picture of a overripe banana taken in the Pacific in the 1950’s, they probably would have used it. It’s the effect that counts, not the facts.

Two photos that went viral on social media depict scenes that are not directly related to the family separations taking place on the US-Mexico border since early May. The most prominent, of Honduran two-year-old Yanela Varela crying inconsolably, has become a global symbol of the separations – helping to attract more than $18 million in donations for a Texas non-profit called RAICES. The photograph was taken on June 12 in McAllen, Texas by John Moore, a Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer for Getty Images.

Quote
An online article about the picture, published by Time Magazine, initially reported the girl was taken from her mother, but was subsequently corrected to make clear that: “The girl was not carried away screaming by US Border Patrol agents; her mother picked her up and the two were taken away together.” Time Magazine nonetheless used the image of the sobbing child on its cover, next to an image of President Trump looming over her, with the caption “Welcome to America”. The head of Honduras’ Migrant Protection Office Lisa Medrano confirmed to AFP that the little girl, just two years old, “was not separated” from her family.
The child’s father also said as much. Denis Varela told the Washington Post that his wife Sandra Sanchez, 32, had not been separated from their daughter, and that both were being detained together in an immigration center in McAllen. Under fire for its cover – which was widely decried as misleading including by the White House – the magazine said it was standing by its decision. “The June 12 photograph of the 2-year-old Honduran girl became the most visible symbol of the ongoing immigration debate in America for a reason,” Time’s editor-in-chief Edward Felsenthal said.

[ZH: And here's the corrected version:]
Nassim Nicolas Taleb, of black swans and Fragility, has found the appropriate term for this ‘phenomenon’, and explains why it works so well that TIME apparently doesn’t care about the damage to its reputation caused by using photographs for such purposes.
Pedophrasty, Bigoteering, and Other Modern Scams (https://medium.com/incerto/pedophrasty-bigoteering-and-other-modern-scams-c84bd70a29e8)
Quote
Pedophrasty Definition: Argument involving children to prop up a rationalization and make the opponent look like an asshole, as people are defenseless and suspend all skepticism in front of suffering children: nobody has the heart to question the authenticity or source of the reporting. Often done with the aid of pictures. [..] Pedophrasty is effective as it provides arguments to strike before the evidence is formed. People are moved into “doing something” Pedophrasts prey on our maternal (and paternal) instincts.
Pedophrasty has its most effects on actors, journalists and similar types who are intellectually insecure, deprived of critical judgment, and afraid of being classified as violators of some norm of political correctness. For instance, pedophrasty has been commonly used in the Syrian war by such propagandists as Julian Roepke continuously supplying the German public with pictures of dead children. Or the various lobbies hired by Saudi Barbaria (and allies), such as the Middle East Institute in Washington DC, to promote Sunni Islamist policies under the cover of “think tanks”.
The Nayirah testimony: a false congressional testimony by 15-year-old girl who provided only her first name, Nayirah (she turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the U.S.) was a bit responsible into tipping the US into the war. Nayirah claimed that she had witnessed Iraqi soldiers take babies out of incubators a Kuwaiti hospital, and leave the babies to die. Nobody dared to question the veracity of her claims.
That’s what is dangerous: seeing a photo of a child in distress makes people halt their critical thinking. That’s also why such photos are used. They help build a narrative that doesn’t have to be factual to shock people. But at that point TIME becomes a fiction magazine; it’s where it leaves journalism behind.
The narrative also depends to a large extent on the singularity of Trump’s brutality compared to other presidents and nations’ leaders. It seeks to single him out as being extremely cruel. That narrative will fall to pieces going forward, and not only because the stories behind the photos have now been exposed.
First, here’s a look at what happened under earlier US presidents, in this case Obama, published by the ACLU in May 2018:
ACLU Obtains Docuмents Showing Widespread Abuse Of Child Immigrants In US Custody (https://www.aclu.org/news/aclu-obtains-docuмents-showing-widespread-abuse-child-immigrants-us-custody)
Quote
Docuмents obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union featured in a new report released today show the pervasive abuse and neglect of unaccompanied immigrant children detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The report was produced in conjunction with the International Human Rights Clinic at the University of Chicago Law School.
“These docuмents provide a glimpse into a federal immigration enforcement system marked by brutality and lawlessness,” said Mitra Ebadolahi, ACLU Border Litigation Project staff attorney. “All human beings deserve to be treated with dignity and respect regardless of their immigration status — and children, in particular, deserve special protection. The misconduct demonstrated in these records is breathtaking, as is the government’s complete failure to hold officials who abuse their power accountable. The abuse that takes place by government officials is reprehensible and un-American.”
The report is based on over 30,000 pages of docuмents dated between 2009 and 2014.
Then, what other ‘leaders’, who express their ‘disgust’ and worries at the Trump separation policies do at home. The Guardian yesterday:
Theresa May’s Brutal Family Separations Would Make Trump Blush (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/jun/22/theresa-mays-family-separations-trump-children-britain-immigration)
Quote
[..] as a British citizen I cannot, in good faith, reassure myself with that time-old mantra that we are somehow more civilised and less cruel or brutal than our cousins across the pond. Nor do I think that condemnation from our government can carry any real currency. Since long before anybody had heard the words “Make America great again”, splitting up families has been official policy in Theresa May’s Home Office – and it has been carried out with a brutality and on a scale that would make even President Trump blush.
The Children’s Commissioner has found that at least 15,000 children growing up in the UK live without a parent because the right of British citizens to reunite with a foreign spouse is limited by an unreasonable income threshold, an impossible complicated application system fraught with Home Office errors, and no legal aid for families to challenge incorrect decisions.
And the Sydney Morning Herald from December 2017:
Australia Is Wilfully Damaging The Health Of Children On Nauru To Make A Point – And It Is Appalling (https://www.smh.com.au/opinion/australia-is-wilfully-damaging-the-health-of-children-on-nauru-to-make-a-point--and-it-is-appalling-20171212-h035cq.html)
Quote
When we visited Nauru as paediatric specialists three years ago, we were asked to see 30 of the 100 children being detained on the island. Among them was a six-year-old girl who had tried to kill herself and a two-year-old boy with such severe behaviour problems a doctor had prescribed anti-psychotic medicines. Their parents were in despair. They had fled persecution, trying to save their children from harm, but had ended up imprisoned on a remote island, without hope.
We left with the view that these were the most traumatised children we had ever consulted on, far worse than children we had seen in Australia, Africa, Asia or Europe. Three years later, 43 of those children remain on the island. Officially they are now free to move around, but reports of attacks by locals show Nauru is not safe and so they remain in the “Regional Processing Centre”.
In 2014, the Australian Human Rights Commission reported that children at this centre were deeply traumatised psychologically, and had even been abused. Their detention was harming them. When Australia introduced mandatory detention in 1992, it took 10 weeks on average to process an application for refugee status. Now it takes years. As the numbers of children in detention fall, the length of time in detention rises. This is deliberate: wilfully damaging children’s health to deter others from seeking asylum.
See, what TIME Magazine and others do, using pictures of crying children regardless of their actual context, may make for an initially appealing narrative, but in the end their approach only distracts from what really matters. Which is that children need to be with their mothers (and preferably fathers).
Just reporting the facts on this is not only enough, it’s the only way to report on it. Once you start making up stuff, you’re done, and the truth is done.
US immigration laws are clearly not working; so change them. ICE is a terrible organization that has attracted far too many sociopaths. Close it down. Child abuse as a tool to instill fear has been an international political tool for a very long time. Those are the things that should be making headlines. Turning this into yet another anti-Trump narrative, using crying children as shortcuts to people’s emotions, doesn’t work, or not for long.

This is not about Trump. Trying to make it about him is not going to help those children. And that’s what you want, right? Right?

President Trump is ordering all American citizens to take heed of and listen to his personal vow to never let America become Europe regarding migrants and refugees on his watch. “The United States will not be a migrant camp and it will not be a refugee holding facility,” Trump vowed during a press conference. “It won’t be. You look at what is happening in Europe and other places, we can’t allow it to happen to the United States. Not on my watch.” That’s a very strong and definitive statement from our Commander-in-Chief. It is his strongest statement yet during his term as president. It has really put undocuмented illegal aliens on notice and is sending them running for the border. And it’s an order and vow Americans can take to heart.
The media has been wall to wall attacking President Trump and his administration for separating children from their parents at the border. Even though 10,000 of the last 12,000 children who came over that border did so without their actual parents. The left is trying to emotionally weaponize the issue with pictures of babies torn away from their mothers while breastfeeding (not true), children crying for their parents while in cages (not true) and making comparisons to the h0Ɩ0cαųst.
At last count, the media had used h0Ɩ0cαųst references 22 times to play on the issue. They are all using the very same talking points as well. The left has even won over some Republicans like Laura Bush, who compared the detention facilities to Japanese internment camps. That’s also not true and hypocritical since her husband signed a great deal of this into law in 2008.
Give President Trump his due, he’s standing strong on the issue and in fact, as I understand it, ICE will be doubling down on their immigration raids and the border will be tightened up even further. That’s sure to drive the left right out of their minds.

Ralph Nader Asks Former First Ladies:
 Why No "Heartfelt Concern for Tens of Thousands of Children Killed or Seriously Maimed" by Their Husbands' Wars?

 
 Consumer advocate puts check on Laura Bush and Michelle Obama for selective criticism when it comes to kids harmed by brutal U.S. policies
 
 
By Andrea Germanos

June 23, 2018 "Information Clearing House (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/)" - Noted consumer advocate and author Ralph Nader on Friday offered a sharp retort to Laura Bush and Michelle Obama in response to the former first ladies levied criticism at the Trump administration's cruel (https://www.commondreams.org/news/2018/06/20/trading-one-form-child-abuse-another-trump-executive-order-called-sham-not-fix%20newly-reversed%2520) immigration policy that separated immigrant children from their families.

"Would be nice if Laura Bush and Michelle Obama had expressed similar heartfelt concern for the tens of thousands of children killed or seriously maimed by the wars of their husbands in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere," he tweeted.

As it's signed "-R," it was written by Nader himself, rather than his staff who often tweet on his behalf.

The tweet follows an op-ed  (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/laura-bush-separating-children-from-their-parents-at-the-border-breaks-my-heart/2018/06/17/f2df517a-7287-11e8-9780-b1dd6a09b549_story.html)published Sunday at the Washington Post in which Bush took aim at Trump's "zero tolerance" policy, writing that she "was among the millions of Americans who watched images of children who have been torn from their parents."

"I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart," she wrote, tweeting out the same section of text.

Michelle Obama retweeted (https://twitter.com/MichelleObama/status/1008768272895012867) that, adding, "Sometimes truth transcends party."

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), it should also be noted, was created under the George w. Bush administration and the Obama administration also came under fire for his deportation policy, treatment of child migrants, and the detention of immigrant families.

The other living first ladies have also weighed in  (https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/ladies-speak-family-separation-immigration-policy/story?id=55986862)on the Trump administration's widely condemned policy of ripping families apart at the Southern border, with all expressing at least some measure of criticism.

The current First Lady's reaction to the separations and detention of chidlren was quite mild, with a spokesperson for Melania Trump saying she "hates to see children separated from their families." It also rang particularly hollow, as, on her way to visit a detention center at the border, she wore a jacket emblazoned with the words "I really don't care, do U?"

The "parents" send their 12 year old daughters by themselves among the coyotes that smuggle them into the USA to get raped multiple times along the way. These are not real parents, their children are just chattel to them. Unfortunately, the faith, their only hope of civilizing, has been taken from them by their masonic  government, and what you have left are beasts. The savageness is in the raw with the poor because they do not have the money to cover it up with mansions, plastic surgery, abortions, Merecedes Benz.....  The rich in Mexico have solved the problem by aborting their children and taking advantage of the cheap labor to live "clean". Until South America returns to the true faith LIVED, they will remain as just another Africa.

In the USA, if I leave my 12 year old daughter in the car reading a book with the air conditioning running for 3 minutes while I pickup my laundry, I get arrested.
It is negligence to leave a child that is still in diapers in a situation where it is behind bars and a stranger who is a teenager unknown to its parents has to teach other who are unrelated to it how to change its diapers. Where are the trained and vetted caregivers?

They came from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, with children in tow. Some were fleeing violence. Others were looking for a better life.
 They didn't know they would be separated from their children after crossing the U.S.-Mexico border due to a zero-tolerance policy that called for prosecuting every adult who entered the country illegally.
 Five parents out of a group of more than 30 who were recently released from federal custody pending the outcome of their immigration and asylum cases shared their stories Monday during a news conference in El Paso. They have found temporary shelter with a Texas charity organization, with their locations tracked by ankle monitors.
 Some have no idea where their children are. Others do but can't say with any certainty when they might see them again. Their children range in age from 4 to 17.
 One father said he felt broken without his teenage son, while another cried over his daughter. A mother wiped away tears, fearing that her 4-year-old son believes she abandoned him.
 They are just a few of the many families who have been thrust into the center of a long simmering debate over how to handle the flood of migrants on the southern border. The five immigrants spoke on the condition that their last names not be used for fear of deportation by U.S. authorities.

You see, they came here and the first thing that they did was to break the law, and the fact that they brought children with them with the intent to make them break the law as well, they have broken the moral law as well.

They have no right to be here and the consequences of their actions are theirs alone. Being separated from the children that they have abused by involving them in criminal behavior is their responsibility.

And why did the government officials lie to them and tell them that they would get their children back if they plead guilty. doesn't that place the integrity of the proceedings in jeapordy? What will happen to the children?

The Supreme Court has ruled, (though I disagree), that police can lie to citizens and "lead them on" in order to get a confession, to get an indictment, and to get a conviction.

If local law enforcement is allowed to LIE to CITIZENS, then they can also lie to CRIMINAL, WANNABE-IMMIGRANTS.  I'm not saying I agree with it, but that's the way the law works for everyone.  Those that enforce the law have an obligation to CONVICT, at the expense of everyone else.

It's been this way for DECADES!  Why should "potential" citizens have MORE rights to truth from the executive branch (i.e immigration police) than citizens?  Answer:  They don't, and they should accept this fact.

I am not talking about lying to get a confession. I am talking about lying about the procedure itself and deporting the parents without their children. I am talking about taking the children and keeping them in circuмstances that would be considered child abuse if you or I were to do that to our children.

Poche, you need to watch this video about 3x and face the FACTS that the border is in chaos.  If families choose to come through the port of entry, they will not be split up.  If they choose to ILLEGALLY cross NOT at the port of entry, then we must prosecute.  If they follow the law, they won't be split up.  It's that simple.

Man detained at border for trying to smuggle infant, Border Patrol says
Officials say man first tried claiming he was baby's father
SAN ANTONIO - A Honduran  (https://www.ksat.com/topic/Honduran)man tried to smuggle a 4-month-old girl across the border near Pharr, according to the U.S. Border Patrol.
The incident took place Friday.
The man claimed he was the baby’s biological father but, during questioning, he admitted that wasn’t true. He had bought a fraudulent docuмent identifying himself as the parent, read a news release from Border Patrol officials in Weslaco.
The baby has been separated from the man, and he has been referred for prosecution.
During record checks, agents discovered a 2013 encounter with immigration officials in which the man had smuggled an 8-year-old, claiming he was the father. Because the man and the child received a family unit designation, they were released from federal custody, officials said.
The man admitted after his release that he gave the child to a woman who he believed was the child’s mother.

Did this “family” cross the border at the point of entry, or illegally?

Mexicans have access to all kinds of fake SS# docs.  I know an auditor who audited a construction company in Atlanta.  Multiple Mexicans with multiple fake IDs, who’d work for 6 months as “Pedro”, leave mysteriously to go back home, and they’d be back at the company 3 months later, with new docs saying they were now named “Filipe”.  This was 15 yrs ago!!

On a related note, it appears that the government has not been following its own rules;
 A federal judge on Monday determined the U.S. government is violating its own rules regarding the treatment of people seeking asylum.
 Judge James Boasberg issued a preliminary injunction ordering the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency to stop what opponents called the arbitrary detention of legitimate asylum seekers. The case in question continues, but the injunction opens up yet another legal front in the multi-directional battle being waged by the Trump administration over immigration.
 "This ruling means the Trump administration cannot use indefinite detention as a weapon to punish and deter asylum seekers," said Michael Tan, senior staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union's Immigrants' Rights Project.
 All immigrants seeking asylum must initially pass a "credible fear" screening to determine if they face a threat of persecution in their home countries. Those who fail that standard are deported immediately. Previously, those who passed were usually given humanitarian parole while awaiting an immigration hearing, provided they were not considered flight risks or dangers to the public.
 Under former President Barack Obama's administration, ICE granted humanitarian parole to more than 90 percent of asylum seekers.
 Lawyers for the ACLU and other groups argued in May that since the start of President Donald Trump's administration, the number of people granted such parole has dropped to almost zero in five key ICE field offices: Detroit; El Paso, Texas; Los Angeles; Newark, New Jersey; and Philadelphia.
 Those denied parole have instead been detained; in one case, a former ethics teacher from Haiti has spent more than 18 months in prison.
 Judge Boasberg, in a 38-page memorandum opinion, concluded that "the numbers here are irrefutable," and ordered a case-by-case review of all asylum seekers awaiting parole. Meanwhile, the lawsuit will continue with a status hearing July 10.
 The denial letters that they were issuing were just boiler-plate — deny deny deny," said Hardy Vieux, legal director for Human Rights First. "This is the court saying, 'I've seen enough to tell (the government) to stop what you're doing and we'll talk later.'"

A child was returned to his parents “full of dirt and lice” 85 days after being taken by US immigration and customs enforcement (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/Immigration) (ICE (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/immigration-and-customs-enforcement)) at the border (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/us-mexico-border), according to his mother.
Olivia Caceras made the claim about her 14-month-old son in a lawsuit filed (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-sued-border-children-latest-states-lawsuit-us-mexico-immigration-migrants-separate-families-a8418396.html) by 17 states and Washington DC against Donald Trump (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/DonaldTrump)’s “zero tolerance” family separation (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/family-separation) policy at the US border that has resulted in more than 2,300 children being separated from parents or guardians upon entry.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions had even made seeking asylum (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/asylum) a crime and those who had crossed the border illegally for the first time were detained separately from their children and sent to facilities throughout Texas (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/Texas) and beyond.
Ms Caceras’ testimony is one of many included in the court filing, totalling nearly 1,000 pages.
She said about her son’s return: “He continued to cry when we got home and would hold on to my leg and would not left me go”.
“When I took off his clothes, he was full of dirt and lice...It seems like they had not bathed him the 85 days he was away from us,” she noted.

Neither the White House nor the Department of Health and Human Services  (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/health-and-human-services)Office of Refugee (https://www.independent.co.uk/topic/refugee) Resettlement, tasked with the management of the children’s detention facilities, have responded to a request for comment on the allegations.
Before Mr Trump signed an executive order ending the family separation policy on 20 June, there appeared to be no real plan for reunification - parents and guardians were not given matching case numbers to their children, information on the location of children let alone phone calls with them were scant according to reports from advocates who had spoken to detainees, and some children were even sent as far away as Michigan and New York.
Thousands are still waiting to find their children.
However, the latest court order issued by US District Court Judge in the southern district of California is forcing the federal government to reunite children within 30 days, and 14 days for the children under the age of five.
The latter deadline comes up on 10 July.
The lawsuit containing Ms Caceres’ claims and hundreds of others was filed on 26 June by 18 Democratic attorneys general and, according to PBS, seeks (https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/family-separation-lawsuit-offers-chilling-details-as-trump-administration-says-it-will-fulfill-federal-court-order) a “court to order that this policy is unconstitutional and it must stop permanently. They also want courts to order those seeking asylum be allowed to process and go through the border without being detained”.

The first-hand accounts detailed in the court filing include those undocuмented migrants were kept in freezing cold cells, being forced to share one toilet with little privacy among more than 50 adults, racial slurs by guards, and psychological abuse of the separated children.
One particularly chilling audio clip was released amid the public furore and protests to the policy, during which a border patrol officer can be heard ridiculing children sobbing to see their parents.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/migrant-mother-says-her-son-175356372.html

When you take someone's children away from their parents then you become responsible for the well being of that child. Why are the children being returned without having been bathed? Where did the lice come from? What is even worse, why are the border patrol officers mocking the crying children? Could his laughter at their tears be an indication of the type of intent toward these children that we would call criminal if it were done by anybody else?

Are you kidding?  Not in Canada.  Our ##### prime minister has welcome packages waiting at the border, people to tell you how to get housing, monetary assistance, anything they could need.
800 illegals are presently being housed in university dorms and the local government doesn't know what to do with them as the university students will be coming back in August.
I was at Walmart the other day and NOT ONE EMPLOYEE was white.  Apparently the federal government subsidizes the wages of immigrants so of course that's a no brainer for Walmart's profit line and all the retired Canadians trying to live on their Gov. pensions and teenagers have been replaced.

Canada would have actual border controls if it had an honest man as Prime Minister. 

When it gets a leader like Viktor Orbán, Marine Le Pen or Sebastian Kurz, then we'll talk. It needs someone to enforce border controls, and erase about a decade, if not more, of societal rot.

It is very likely that this child invader was infected with dirt and lice when he arrived, either that or he became infected from being in proximity to the other border jumpers who are well known to carry all manner of diseases and parasites.
This 'child invader' as you call him is supposed to be taken care of when he is removed from his parents. It is not appropriate for a child in government custody to be not bathed for several days. When he is returned to the parents he needs to be returned in as good or better than when they took him away. It is also inappropriate for the local caretakers (aka guards) to be mocking the children when they are crying.

They do not belong here, they came here to deliberately violate the law. If anyone is to be blamed it is the irresponsible parents who brought them or who sent them.  And that does not mitigate the unsanitary conditions that they bring with them. They are a danger to the public health.
They have no right to be here, and they do not belong here.  When is that going to sink in?

Every day, there are more reports of babies forcibly separated from their parents showing up in immigration court and going through deportation proceedings.
“The 1-year-old boy in a green button-up shirt drank milk from a bottle, played with a small purple ball that lit up when it hit the ground and occasionally asked for ‘agua,'” the Associated Press reported (https://apnews.com/4cb60fc06ca34160bf7445fdc1f47eed) Saturday.
The scene made the Phoenix immigration judge uncomfortable when it came time to ask the defendant, a Honduran boy named Johan, whether he understood the proceedings.
“I’m embarrassed to ask it, because I don’t know who you would explain it to, unless you think that a 1-year-old could learn immigration law,” Judge John W. Richardson told the boy’s lawyer.
Johan’s lawyer said that he was separated from his dad after they came to the United States, though it wasn’t clear when they were separated. The father is now in Honduras after being removed from the United States under the promise that he would be reunited with his son. Many migrants have been given similar false promises that their kids would be returned to them  (https://www.texastribune.org/2018/06/24/kids-exchange-deportation-migrants-claim-they-were-promised-they-could/)if they signed their own removal order.
Asking minors who immigrated to the United States to go through deportation proceedings alone isn’t a new practice. Kids going through deportation or asylum hearings are also not entitled to court-appointed lawyers. (Non-profit organizations and pro bono laywers try to give them legal representation instead.)
But in May, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the administration’s “zero tolerance policy (https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-announces-zero-tolerance-policy-criminal-illegal-entry)” on immigration would mean criminally prosecuting all adults crossing the U.S. border without docuмentation — thus forcibly separating families (https://www.justice.gov/opa/speech/attorney-general-sessions-delivers-remarks-discussing-immigration-enforcement-actions), since kids can’t be detained in jail. As a result of the administration’s family separation policy, there are now more babies and toddlers than ever in the system.
The reports are harrowing, and there are a lot of them.
“We were representing a 3-year-old in court recently who had been separated from the parents. And the child — in the middle of the hearing — started climbing up on the table,” Lindsay Toczylowski, the executive director of Immigrant Defenders Law Center in Los Angeles, told Kaiser Health News last month (https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/defendants-diapers-immigrant-toddlers-appear-court-alone-n887356). “It really highlighted the absurdity of what we’re doing with these kids.”
Trying to navigate the immigration system (https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/30/politics/children-in-court/index.html) as a child is incredibly hard.
As CNN’s Tal Kopan reported,
Quote
When a child is apprehended at the border, they are turned over to [the Department of Health and Human Services] and eventually, in about 90% of cases, settled with a relative or family friend. They then are called to appear in immigration court for a “master calendar hearing,” the kickoff of their court proceedings.
Many of those children are likely to get a continuance from the judge to allow them time to find a lawyer, apply for asylum or apply for some other visa that protects children. Some, though, may have a hearing date set within a year to resolve their claim.
The process is a maze. For children, by law, asylum applications go to the Department of Homeland Security first, even as the Justice Department-run immigration courts consider whether to deport them. There are other visas, like the Special Immigrant Juvenile visa for neglected or abused children, that can send the kids to DHS and state courts. All while the immigration court continues to weigh whether or not to deport them.
It’s not clear how many kids separated from their parents have been placed in deportation proceedings. The Trump administration has refused to give an exact number of children taken from their parents since June 26. At that time, it estimated that 2,047 kids were separated.
Johan was granted a voluntary departure order and the government will fly him to Honduras. An attorney with the Florence Project, an Arizona-based nonprofit that provides free legal aid to immigrants, said Johan’s mom and dad are both there.
Johan’s case took place on Friday, when the Trump administration argued that it needed more time to meet a court deadline to reunite kids under 5 years old with their parents. The court rejected the blanket request (http://time.com/5332442/judge-trump-administrations-extension/), instead saying that more time may be granted in certain cases.

How obtuse can one be? They did not magically pop up here out of thin air, their parents deliberately brought them here to violate the law, and it is they who are responsible for anything that happens to them. They do not have a right to be here at all.

Don't hear you trumpeting about this. Where is your outrage? These children have been murdered.

The kids at the border are being cared for and protected from coyotes and pedophiles, which is more than their "parents" and elitist enablers are doing. Can't you see that this is all a contrived globalist invasion to destroy the sovereignty of the US? Aren't the other countries of the world subject to God's law? You need to address the source.

Some 3,000 migrant children remain in government custody (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/separated-families-migrants_us_5b3e3fa9e4b09e4a8b2af139) after being separated from their parents, and about 100 of them are under the age of 5, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. The New York Times has reported that some records on the separated families have been lost or even destroyed (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/separated-families-migrants_us_5b3e3fa9e4b09e4a8b2af139), raising the possibility that some children may never be reunited with their families. In addition, the U.S. has already deported at least 19 parents of children under the age of 5 (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/family-separations_us_5b3f8bc2e4b07b827cbff1e1) and in federal custody.

A federal judge in San Diego ordered the Trump administration to reunite children under 5 with their parents within 14, and within 30 days for older children. The first deadline is July 10 (https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/immigration/2018/07/06/u-s-district-judge-rejects-delay-reunite-separated-migrant-kids/764951002/).
Lawyers for HHS asked for an extension last week — and argued that federal officials shouldn’t be required to reunite children (https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/family-separations_us_5b3f8bc2e4b07b827cbff1e1) with parents who have already been deported. Judge Dana Sabraw, who set the deadlines, is set to hold a hearing Monday on the extension request, but only in specific cases where the government can demonstrate that it’s necessary. He said Friday that the government must reunite children with their parents, even if the parents have already been deported.

Not all of the adults are their true parents.  We're trying to figure this out and avoid giving children back to kidnappers, rapists and drug dealers.

You're thinking about the short term (i.e. are these kids separated for a few weeks, are they being taken care of properly), while the US is thinking long term.  What's the point of keeping these children with the adults that brought them if the adults aren't their parents and the children will be beaten, raped, murdered or sold into slavery in 6 months?  Sometimes short term pain brings long term happiness.

Children are sleeping on floors and being cussed out by guards, subsisting on meager rations of beans, crackers, and tortillas that leave them feeling ill, and passing the nights sleeping on floors under bright lights in a converted Walmart in south Texas.
The new reports (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/July-16-2017-filing-Attachment-6-Vol-5.pdf) of harsh physical conditions, humiliating psychological abuse, and basic deprivation come from children held at the so-called “Casa Padre” facility in Brownsville, Texas, almost a month after President Donald Trump took symbolic steps (https://thinkprogress.org/trump-to-sign-order-halting-family-separation-policy-he-created-8028b83a6a3f/) to quash public outcry over his family separation policy aimed at punishing and deterring migrants.
The children and parents who swore out hundreds of affidavits to attorneys appealing the United States government’s treatment of migrants have mostly fled violence in Central America. The conditions in which they find themselves today in the world’s richest and most powerful country shock the conscience — and almost certainly violate the conditions of the legal settlement (https://www.vox.com/2018/6/20/17484546/executive-order-family-separation-flores-settlement-agreement-immigration) that’s bound American officials in treatment of minors in immigration detention for decades, lawyers say.
The harrowing testimonials capture children’s and parents’ experiences at various stops along the Trump administration’s chain from initial processing by Border Patrol agents to transportation by CBP and ICE to the contractor-run Casa Padre facility. In many cases, the only bathroom the children are allowed to use is located inside their holding pen.
“There is a security camera in the room which points to the bathroom (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/noe-icebox.jpg)” in the CBP cell where a 17-year-old from Guatemala named Noe was kept with a dozen other boys, he said.
“There is no privacy. It is dirty and they don’t clean it,” reported a Guatemalan boy named Erick, describing his first three days in U.S. custody near the border. “The room is always cold. The guards took my sweater (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/erick-cold.jpg). I sleep on the floor. There are 3 mattresses, but the boys from Honduras have taken them,” he said, adding that those other boys threaten to stab him if he falls asleep.
“The guards call all the Guatemalans ‘burros’ or stupid (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/erick-burros.jpg) or they say we don’t understand anything,” Erick said.
Victor A., 17, fled Honduras after his mother was killed. With his father in jail and his mother’s killer still lurking, he told lawyers, he decided to seek safety in the U.S. After officials gave he and the other boys in his cell food, “everyone got sick.” One building where Victor was housed was kept very cold and the lights were never turned off. “Last night, there were 10 of us kids in the room, but only 3 mattress pads available,” he told lawyers days after his capture.
 
Erick, 16, from Guatemala.
“When I told the CBP officer that my mother was killed, they made fun of me and said I was ‘weak.’ (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/victor-icebox.jpg) I didn’t feel comfortable after that sharing my fear,” Victor said. After a friend didn’t pick up when he made the one call he’s allowed per week, the guard near the phones told him, “This is it for you. You’re fucked (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/victor-icebox.jpg).”
Such disdainful or outright abusive treatment from detention guards appears to be the norm. Fatima O., a mother from Honduras, says that when she told guards her daughter had soiled herself they refused to provide her new underpants for several days. Another mom named Daise reported that guards “yelled at my daughter a lot,” “made fun of her,” and “would not let her sleep and kicked her to keep her awake.” Another, Mayra S., said she begged guards for clean water and “officers told me to shut up.” Elmer S., a 15-year-old Honduran, said that after being moved to Casa Padre he has been unable to see doctors or dentists to tend to his medical needs.
“They do not give us enough food and I am always hungry. Also, here at Casa Padre, they do not let us go to the doctor when we ask,” Elmer S. said. “I had an appointment to see the dentist when I was at Casa Esperanza but Casa Padre canceled it when I got here and have not rescheduled.”
Multiple children report being warned that they could be “written up” for any perceived transgression, and that such write-ups would go into the permanent file that an immigration judge would later review to determine whether or not their asylum claims were valid. Casa Padre staff have warned Elmer S. that going over his allotted 10 minutes of weekly phone time with relatives would get him written up, he said.
Such warnings often constitutes the most information anyone has been given by U.S. officials about their legal futures — almost every statement reviewed by ThinkProgress includes a mention of being told to sign papers the detainee didn’t understand because they were written in English. Detainees repeatedly say they have never been told they have any rights or given any information about legal resources that might be available to help them navigate the frightening situation in which they’ve been placed by Trump’s administration.
Sergio C., 16, crossed with his father but they were quickly separated by U.S. officials, he said. “[T]hey told me not to worry that he would be coming in a moment. I went in the car and felt very relieved and happy that he would follow (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/sergio-separation-icebox.jpg),” he said. “But it wasn’t like that. He didn’t come.”
Instead, Sergio was dropped into what the detainees call the “hielera,” or icebox. Detainees across the board report being kept in frigid conditions with few — if any — blankets. After learning that family members back home in Guatemala had fallen ill, and learning that his father was being kept in even harsher conditions at a separate facility, Sergio became distraught and started crying.

Even after Sergio had been transferred from the “hielera” holding cells at the border to the supposedly kinder, cozier setting of the Brownsville Walmart, he described continued humiliations.
“A staff member here at Casa Padre came in and asked me why I was being such a cry baby (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/sergio-crybaby-icebox.jpg). Then he said some words in English that I didn’t understand but other young men who where there told me he said swear words. It made me feel very bad and very ashamed,” Sergio said.
Most of the testimonials reviewed by ThinkProgress refer to thin burritos made up only of beans and tortilla. Often children report they were served cold, and that they left kids feeling sick. Numerous other child and adult detainees held in various facilities have reported being given sandwiches that were still frozen, with blackened lettuce that might be rotten, according to stories from the Texas Observer (https://www.texasobserver.org/treated-worse-than-dogs-immigrant-kids-in-detention-give-firsthand-accounts-of-squalid-conditions/), Associated Press (https://www.apnews.com/1a8db84a88a940049558b4c450dccc8a/Immigrant-children-describe-treatment-in-detention-centers), and other (https://www.npr.org/2018/07/18/629998961/lawsuit-charges-migrants-subjected-to-dirty-detention-facilities-bad-food-and-wa) outlets (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-immigration-conditions/migrants-in-u-s-custody-describe-life-in-ice-boxes-and-dog-pounds-idUSKBN1K82X1).
The horror stories were unearthed by attorneys seeking a judge’s help to enforce the longstanding consent decree that governs U.S. treatment of child detainees and families of migrants that include minor children. Only about one in 10 interviewees reported being treated particularly well, or offered any praise for the adequacy of the food, blankets, or other conditions, attorney Peter Schey of the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law said in the filing that accompanied the shocking testimonials.
“[A]bout 90%… provide testimony that is shocking and atrocious,” Schey wrote. “It amounts to a picture not just of forcibly separating thousands of children from their parents, but on a much broader level of a program of forced hunger, forced thirst, forced sleep deprivation (https://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Flores-July-16-2018-filing-Attachment-2-Schey.pdf), coupled with routine insults, threats, and physical assault, that leave class member children crying, trembling, hungry, thirsty, sleepless, sick, and terrified.”
“Mental health experts agree that many class members will never fully recover from the terror and humiliation they experienced in Defendants’ custody.”
Though Schey is bound by legal standards to use the word “Defendants” there, the rest of us don’t have to be so oblique. The people doing this to the 900-plus children at Casa Padre and thousands of others at various CBP, ICE, and contractor-run facilities — while also failing to reunite families (https://thinkprogress.org/trump-admin-reunited-57-migrant-kids-under-5-back-with-parents-f448dbf4cc66/) as they were ordered to do by a federal court — are officials of the United States government that represents all 300-plus million people who are citizens of this country.
