Obama's policy was "catch and release", as Pubs liked to call it. And something like 75% of those released showed up for their court dates. No government detention camps. No family separations. No extra work for CBP/ICE and no extra costs to taxpayers.

Majority of undocumented immigrants show up for court, data shows | PunditFact

Sessions and tRump's 'zero tolerance" policy is akin to jailing everyone caught for minor traffic offenses and taking their kids from them.

It's failed.

Bigly.

Lots of extra work for CBP/ICE agents, lots of extra money spent on their detention camps, lots of bad press.

They ALL do.

Speaking of crybabies...

That's exactly what the situation is. You break the law and get caught you get arrested. It's the law. It's written on paper. By congress. Catch and release policy was to not follow the law.

Can refute that when you break the law and get caught you will be arrested? Do we throw kids in jail? How many show up to their court date is irrelevant to the main point.

You got nothing but blowing hot air, lol. I never click your weird links, can you just put the text here.

The "new policy" was actually removing the "old policy" of not enforcing the law (or the punishment).

He did make another good point though, he said the same goes for an American citizen. If an American family we're to cross the border illegally, the same thing would happen.

Also that audio sounded fake, but who knows. Do many Central American kids cry "mommy"?

Don't you remember over the years the claims that these kids no nothing but English? That so explains how they were raised by people that only know Spanish.

It's all about the emotions.

So, you support jailing folks who have small violations similar to a minor traffic violation and then housing their kids at taxpayer expense.

Makes tRump-like sense.

Oh, BTW...

That policy you and tRump like so much is a big failure.

Tresspassing into a foreign country is the equivalent of a traffic ticket? Lol.

You do also know when people are arrested, thy are taken to jail where they are held, right? This is a real thing, that happens. Or what are you proposing as an alternative? Jail the entire family? Turn them right back on the spot, even though they just broke a law that calls for arrest?

Most Border Patrol agents are Latino so we can call Loonies racists when they call for getting rid of them.

Indeed.

2016 in absentia rate - 39%

2015 in absentia rate - 43%

Both a far cry from your 25% claim.
