Actually I believe he did it this way so it would be challenged in court. See my previous post.
So he really doesn't care about the children. Got it.
But, of course, after calling them an infestation, one can assume he never cared. All that BS about how it breaks his heart to separate the kids from their parents is just that, BS.
This is a new action taken against families that might have been allowable before but other presidents decided it was too heinous.
This is the kind of reasoning where people say - "hey you're guilty of jay walking so if you're killed while in custody, you knew the risks!". Obviously there are a lot of sadists in these roles who relish the opportunity as an excuse to go as extreme as allowed - in an almost gleeful way.
And that's the same feeling on this. We as a country are responsible for enforcing in a REASONABLE way. We're looking more and more like a fascist totalitarian state taking plays out of their playbook instead of one for democracies. Careful, someone just might be coming for you next on some "trump-ed" up charge that gives the excuse for you to be treated in the same manner.
You’re comparing jay walking to people paying cartel smugglers to escort their kids through one of the most dangerous countries in the world so they can get to America?
So when the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security says hat 10000 of the 12000 were unaccompanied minors...we shouldn't believe them?
Do you have a source to dispute otherwise?
oh..but, but.. they saw pictures on the Communist News Network
Unaccompanied minors:
• The U.S. Refugee Resettlement sees an estimated 2,100 unaccompanied children on any given day
• 80% of the children referred to the ORR end up in a shelter, because they come here unaccompanied
• According to the Polaris project, unaccompanied minors are highly vulnerable to human trafficking
LOL at these two posts. The cognitive dissonance is real. Or maybe they were going for irony?
Or I have another word I'm probably not allowed to say.
Whatever the case, widespread condemnation and disgust on all sides made Trump sign an executive order he seemed somehow powerless to do yesterday! Funny that. He could have signed it weeks ago.
And the Trumpees claim it was all part of a 'plan'.
Ahahahahahahaha.
I agree, he was feeling the heat from all side on this one, even from world leaders. It's going to be interesting to watch Sarah Huckabee Sanders put her spin on the quick reversal, after days of tough talking. But, they were probably more worried about the November elections than those kids.
Criminal??? Firstly wouldn't one have to be tried and convicted of a crime before being separated from their children in the U.K. or any of the other countries calling themselves civilized?
You just wipe the slate of all the conventions agreed to for decades for those claiming refugee and asylum seeking status?
You're able to tell just by looking at brown skin people showing up at your one border they're automatically criminals?
Should we send them all to Canada? I'm sure if we did that, you would be the first one to welcome them with open arms.
Not everybody who is sneaking across the southern border is "brown skinned". You know so little as to what is happening there. Maybe you should do some research before you post again.
To anyone who says or thinks that the kids being detained are, in so many words, better off than they have ever been before in their lives, I can tell you that you are just WRONG. Material possessions cannot make up for the loss of a parent in the child's eyes, even in cases where it is for the safety and the so-called good of the child. The trauma that occurs to a child who is old enough to know what is happening but not old enough to understand is a trauma that is lifelong.
At the same time, being in the company of one's parents cannot make up for malnourishment and infection.
Yet another disgusting post from you. Do you even know what happened in the Holocaust? If you did, you wouldn't make such a vile remark and invoke Godwin's Law. You lose.
NOPE.
When people are actually behaving like the Nazis it is completely fine to make the comparison.
It is clear you simply don't understand Godwin's rule (rule by the way not law,)
Oh and Godwin himself agrees, try looking at his twitter account or some of the statements he has made.
What we really have is alt rights/ CULT members trying to hide behind the fig leaf of Reductio ad Hitlerum.
