We can not be responsible for every living soul in this world. My heart breaks for these kids but if you want to allow this - you are responsible for them - not me.
Here’s the thing: repubs don’t want their taxes being used on American citizens either so what a conundrum you have

I bet these children have the same grasp on the English language as many of the posters in this forum do.
It has no bearing on anything, anyway.

The most vocally opposed are usually the ones who are also religious and listen to their priests, ministers, and rabbis talk about charity and helping others. Such a huge disconnect. That's game-playing right there.

Risking their lives? A lot of the migrants at the southern border take the flight to Mexico and walk on foot or take the bus to the southern border. That’s why there are a lot of migrants from as far as India, Armenia, Cuba, and Romania right now. They look healthy, well dress, and clean.

Ask me how i know all that
What do you suggest, that we throw those young children back onto the other side of trump's wall?

Get real.
There are other places in South America that are safe, secure, and livable.
They could have moved the entire family and stayed together there.

It's all about taking advantage of America and Americans' generosity.
2022 and 2024 cannot get here soon enough.
Well dumping kids into this country has suddenly become a "thing" now, hasn't it. The question is, who is benefiting from this racket?

Here in the United States, minor citizens are mostly prohibited from entering into Legal Contracts. Since “ asylum claims “ involve an agreement to appear in an Immigration Court , that indeed forms a contract with the US Government . Since the minor child is unaccompanied , without legal guardianship, no contract should be allowed. Once again we see the Biden Regime circumventing the Laws and Traditions of the United States, not for the benefit of it’s citizens, but for the benefit of invaders.

The vast majority of them are phony. Rejection rates for Central Americans were 90% and 85% for Mexicans in 2020.

In 2020, of the 30,173 individuals from the Northern Triangle that received a decision on asylum claims 27,020 were denied. Of the Mexicans, 5,196 of the 6,113 who applied were told to go back home.

Also, 90% of asylum seekers don't show up for their court date.

Easy

First, stop promising to the world that we will take them in.

Second, send them back to their country of origin to prove our first point.

How do we "send them back?" What do you think happens to those young children that we dump back into whatever country we guess them to be from?

Well, it would have been better to fly them back to their home country.
