There is nothing more "law and order" than unnecessarily ripping an infant from its mothers arms and locking it in a converted Wallmart for weeks or months to prove a political point regarding border crossings. You must be proud of yourself.
How many times have you been down there to assist these poor abused illegals?
None of this disputes what I said about the kids not having to appear in court themselves.
"According to statistics collected by Syracuse University, 58,015 unaccompanied children (i.e., juveniles under the age of 18 separated from their legal adult guardians) were subjected to deportation hearings in American immigration courts in 2017.
That figure was 61,254 in 2016, and 35,113 in 2015. Between 2005 and 2017, some 300,000 unaccompanied children have had to appear in court in deportation hearings, and according to the data around half of children in deportation cases do not have legal representation"
Where were you in 2005?2006?2007?... Why are your panties in such a twist now?
Why didn't they seek asylum in Mexico then as it was the first relatively safe country they crossed? No one is separating kids from their parents at our border when these asylum seekers present themselves at a legal port of entry. It's only those who crossed our border illegally. What part of that aren't you getting?
I guess you missed all the posts about life in Mexico these days.
Quit being a crybaby. Those are the parents you're stuck with so suck it up. But seriously, if the Podestas or one the Clintons cronies offer to look after it, send it back for its own safety.

What’s the implication here? That one cannot have an opinion about public policy unless you personally participate in the activity at issue? Dumb. Do you disqualify the opinion of pro-life advocates unless they personally foster/adopt children?

It wasn't unnecessary as kids can't go to jail with their parents. American parents certainly can't go to jail with their kids. "Ripping"? lol, the melodramatics of you liberals crack me up. An empty Walmart is just a building it's not a prison or a lock up and these kids are being well cared for. Yes, I am proud that we are finally enforcing our immigration laws against these illegal invaders and their usage of their kids to gain sympathy to evade our laws.

Actually it was this administration that came out and said it was changing it’s policy to use child separation as a deterrent, not the liberals (of which I am not one) using children to gain sympathy.
Employers are importing people for relatively unskilled jobs - waitresses, cleaners, cooks...
Walls will do nothing to deter that.
No, most of these illegals are not being "imported" by the employers. They are jumping our border all on their own hoping to find work or whatever unlawful activity they are coming here for. Walls don't work? Why do we have them around our homes and businesses then? Why is there a wall around the White House? Do I have to post those links once again showing how the good walls in place already have been a huge deterrent?
