According to the donkeys at MSNBC, we are now running concentration camps.

Separating children from their parents is inhumanly cruel to the children. Next time you bible thumping inbreeds stumble into a church ask the pastor how Jesus felt about children paying for the sins of their parents.

So much for being a “ Judeo-Christian” society. Your right wingers have no morals.

This is yet another desperate, phony demrat issue -- just like their "war on women" scam.

Families seeking asylum at ports of entry are not separated unless the child is in danger.

Jumping the fence is breaking the law and countless Americans who commit crimes are separated from their families every day.

Once again, demrats and America-hating leftists (but I repeat myself) are showing that they think illegals should have more rights than citizens.

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.”

Blaze the trail my brother. Earn that mantel of high minded idealism. Shame us heartless souls into helping our fellow man. Take them into your homes. Make the sacrifices. Make yourself feel good in the immediate, damn the unintended consequences down the road. All it takes is for one prominent democrat to push it. It's doable, and it's a fix. Just think, the committee might award the Noble Peace prize to the democratic party at large. You would be enshrined for all of history. The people who, in an unparalleled act of humanitarianism, gave their own homes, their own food, their own money to provide shelter for these poor people. Until then your feigned outrage is just lip service and another issue to yak about on the never ending campaign trail, and I'll be here regularly to remind all my friends on the left just how disingenuous their crocodile tears really are.

I have a solution. We need to know exactly who supports illegals coming into the country and who doesn't. We need a way to identify these people. When we all file our taxes next year there should be a box to check. Yes, I support illegal immigration or no I don't. All the yes people then get so sponsor a family of illegals. They can take in that family, feed and clothe them, give them shelter, pay for their medical needs, support them in every way until this family is able to sustain themselves, however long that takes. Just think how great you'll feel about yourself in this great humanitarian effort.

Fair enough, as long as I get to opt out of supporting the military, corporate welfare, or red state leeches.

Once again, the narrative takes precedence over the actual issue liberals pretend they care about.

When a parent commits a crime, your children are removed from your custody and given to someone else to take care of them. If there is no family, the child goes to foster homes - if they can be placed and are lucky enough not to be cared for by the state. Yet there is no campaign to reunite children of criminals with their parents.

Only because immigration is the issue is this narrative being pushed.

Except we don't take the children of jay walkers or first time pot offenders, which is what the law says overstaying a visa or crossing illegally is equivalent to. Which is why there were programs such as catch and release which the orange turd decided to scrap. There simply was no money for GEO or core civic if they could not lock up the brown people, and this administration had to answer to their donors.

Oh look... here's what happened under the Obama regime, as reported in early 2015 by the leftist WaPo:

Mexican kids held for months as punishment for border-crossing

"Accuse your opponent of what you are doing, to create confusion and to inculcate voters against evidence of your own guilt" -- Saul Alinsky

This phony "crisis" is just the latest globalist and demrat strategy to destroy our borders, culture, and the rule of law.

The article includes the perspective of Mexican border officials who fully support U.S. policy regarding illegal immigrant children.

At the local level, Mexican immigration officials along the border consider the program effective because they’ve found that it discourages children from working as guides.

“It’s excellent for us,” said Erasmo Rodriguez, an immigration official in the border town of Piedras Negras. “We’ve received many fewer minors.”

In the first two months of the year, just five repeat crossers from the area were deported to his office. Before the Border Patrol program, he said, dozens would be returned in a normal month.

You don't get to live here and enjoy the freedom and not support the military. Corporate welfare being gone, I'm all for it. Leeches are in all states and come in all strips and colors, so that's a non starter. Please my leftist friends, take out that moral compass and show us the way to the greatest humanitarian effort the world has ever seen.

You asked for me to show the moral way and I showed one.

There are no crocodile tears only an objective analysis. Pulling children from their parents is right in a lot of situations but not all. This policy uses harming children to deter their parents which is wrong. The ends do not justify the means. There’s another moral quandary for you to ponder.

A law that's been in place since 1997. Suddenly the left has a problem with it. Another problem created by the left as they bastardize existing asylum laws. Now everyone is suddenly an asylum seeker. Congress has the full power and authority to change or abolish that law separating children from parents.

Who says entering the country illegally is the same as jaywalking?

Any crime that results in a parent going to jail results in that child being separated from their parent. Where is the outcry over it?
