I do not require your answer I have responsibility to answer to a higher power not on this earth as do you imho
You don't require my answer because I'm not on here posting that I would gladly take in illegals, without ever having posted anything as compassionate when it comes to Americans.

39 pages in and there are still rabid dogs foaming at the mouth and not letting that bone go despite FACTS in this situation. They have an agenda and it involves indicting the president and Border Patrol and trying (but failing) to shame people who refuse to ignore facts even though we're not all on the right or Trump fans.

A new low....

It's like an alternative universe.

I just heard the family of the child is demanding an investigation. The audacity.

This new report:

Quote:
The father of a 7-year-old Guatemalan girl who died after being detained by the US Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) said he has "no complaints about how Border Patrol agents treated him and his daughter," Guatemalan Consul Tekandi Paniagua told CNN on Saturday. The consul said the father, Nery Gilberto Caal, told him agents did everything they possibly could to help his daughter, Jakelin Caal Maquin, after she became sick on a a bus. ... The lawyers clarified reports attributed to Homeland Security that Jakelin had "not eaten or had any water for several days" while crossing the desert before the border patrol took her into custody. ...

"Jakelin's father took care of Jakelin -- made sure she was fed and had sufficient water," the statement said. "She had not suffered from a lack of water or food prior to approaching the border."
And:
Quote:
Garcia said the father and daughter were not part of the well-publicized migrant caravan that traveled to the US border. They traveled by bus most of the way, he said.
This is irritating. Per the bold, the child became ill ON the bus. CNN later in the article repeats its earlier statement that: "Before leaving, her father told agents his daughter was sick and vomiting, the CBP said." But then it's attributed to the CBP so maybe some of the confusion started there?

You keep repeating the same tripe over and over. It's illegal to enter the country the way 163 people did. What part of that is so difficult for you to grasp?

Did you NOT read the timeline in CNN??

December 6


9:15 p.m.
Jakelin and her father, Nery Gilberto Caal, 29, were among a group of 163 migrants detained by Border Patrol agents about a half-mile west of the Antelope Wells port of entry in New Mexico.

They were interviewed by agents to determine if they needed medical care.


Her father signed a form saying he and Jakelin were healthy.


What is wrong with some of you folks that you are willfully ignoring the facts and lying about what happened?

I wish I could rep you for this post. It's comical that a few people just cannot allow themselves to ever, ever state they were wrong about their original position.
