Immigration rebellion

They are being charged with illegal entry and child trafficking.

And .06% is still .06%ā€¦ That is a minuscule percentage and rare by any definitionā€¦ You have been PLAYED by her statisticsā€¦ Innumeracy is a real conditionā€¦

And protecting children from exploitation by determining who they are traveling with in no way requires separating children from their parents once that determination is made. Neilsenā€™s own statement about the number of detected last year make that point precisely. We were not separating children from parents last year and we still detected 46 cases. Didnā€™t require separating those children who WERE traveling with family at all. What you seem to be suggesting is we excerbate the trauma they have already suffered by separating them. Doesnā€™t sound very humane to me at allā€¦

Minors and adults are separated in all US legal courts and proceedings. Nothing is special or unusual WRT residency detentions.

It was the article you posted. A 316 increase is not insignificant.

It isnā€™t more humaine to leave them in a general detention center exposed to unknown adults while being looked after by what could be nothing more than a trafficker posing as a parent.

LOLā€¦ Keep trying to convince yourself that this is normalā€¦

It is legally required and a far better standard than the regions these children left.

Itā€™s still meets the definition of VERY RARE, not just RARE but VERY RAREā€¦

Of course we should determine who they are traveling withā€¦ What happens NOW is they are NOT RETURNED even after itā€™s been determined that they are traveling with family.

I suppose you havenā€™t seen the ā€œTender Agesā€ centers now coming to lightā€¦

Iā€™m not suffering from the expense and Iā€™m middle class. Are you suffering from this?

Moderatesā€¦ what moderates? Their are no moderates among the dems, its their way or they will take their ball and go homeā€¦ as if they are relevant.

Notice not one mention of the fate of these children in his tweetā€¦

Trump officials send migrant babies, toddlers to ā€˜tender ageā€™ shelters

Lawyers and medical providers who have visited the South Texas shelters described playrooms of crying preschool-age children in crisis.

ā€œWe have specialized facilities that are devoted to providing care to children with special needs, and ā€˜tender ageā€™ children ā€” as we define as under 13 ā€” would fall into that category,ā€ he said. ā€œTheyā€™re not government facilities per se, and they have very well-trained clinicians, and those facilities meet state licensing standards for child welfare agencies, and theyā€™re staffed by people who know how to deal with the needs ā€” particularly of the younger children.ā€

Wagner testified in April to a Senate subcommittee that, of the 7,635 children, 6,075 remained where they were placed, 52 had moved, 28 had run away and five were deported. That left 1,475 migrant children. Just because their parents or guardians did not return HHSā€™s phone calls after 30 days does not mean the children are missing, he said.

Brilliant idea, letā€™s just leave them with the traffickers and exploiters for weeks and months while the govā€™t determines for sure which are actual parents and which are not.

What could possibly go wrong with that?

Itā€™s easier to believe everything that paints this administration as evil than it is to bother looking for facts.

The only way in which that can be true is if you donā€™t have a net positive Federal Income Tax Liability.

We wonā€™t see you complaining about the deficit anymore either will we?

Thatā€™s backwards. Itā€™s Conservatives that no longer care about the deficit after complaining about it for 8 years when a Democrat was president.

If DHS is so incompetent that its taking weeks and months to determine parentage, then we probably need to be discussing replacing some people. Me, personally, can get a parentage DNA test in about 72 hoursā€¦ I would hope our federal government is able to work a better deal than meā€¦

The expense of what?

I love how libs think everyone who is not a lib is stupid. Pure coincidence this became the issue it did when it did.
