Why Is Our Government Putting People In Cages?

Now it's "just about doing the right thing."

 

Yesterday the "right thing" was to keep families together. That's done. Now it's not enough... 

 

Because they never cared about children or families. They are emotionally manipulating you because it's easy. They want open borders, nothing less. And they want open borders because many in Congress profit from the smuggling and trafficking (both sides of the aisle) and the left really needs new voters. 

 

It's not about compassion. It's never been about compassion. It's about politics. 

So you have no compassion for the babies left in warehouses. Ok, I guess since you are Trump's water boy you have no choice. Shameful. You are disgusting 

 

You nativist bull sh it is hateful, scaremongering and scapegoating of immigrants. You Trump cultists are losing.

This was never a misconception of mine. Like I said in my post a few pages ago the change that the Trump administration made was to start prosecuting every single illegal migrant including those with children. Since some people including asylum seekers were being turned away at the port of entry, it effectively barred some asylum seekers from following the legal process, including some with children.

 

From everything I've read, asylum seekers were only turned away when the volume of crossers was to much to currently process.  And even then, they were told to come back later.

 

It's a complicated issue that's being misrepresented to the American public.

Doing the right thing, even though it's against the law.  And the people arguing for doing "the right thing" steadfastly refuse to amend the law?

 

DR's wrong - it's not about open borders, or politics.  It's about the further weakening of the rule of law, so those in power can accumulate even more power.

What this shitstorm really shows is how partisan the dems are. They don't want to solve problems for this country but they do want to help themselves at the ballot box. They will do anything including turning their backs to children being sold into work slavery or sex slavery. They don't care if MS-13 or terrorists invade our borders. The only thing that is important to them is their sleazy politics. I think I'm going to start calling anyone who fights reasonable border control a "Pedophile Enabler"--"PE" for short.

No, I actually agree, they should change the law. The whole nativist bull sh it needs to end. It's stupid, its hurts the country and it hurts people and businesses. There is no sense to it. DR repeating Trump's garbage claim that this is about more voters is just that, garbage. 

 

No one is refusing to change the law, but ya know, you sort of need the votes. Republicans are finding that out right now, today, in the house

The choice is simple:

 

Use the port of entry (which aren't difficult to reach or find - and are just a few miles away from where most of the illegal southern border crossings happen) and you can stay with your family, avoid prosecution, and begin the process of seeking asylum. 

 

Or,

 

Cross the border illegally, putting yourself and your family at more risk than needed, and expose yourself and your family to prosecution, separation, and deportation. 

 

I don't see why more people can't understand this.

You know, from your posting it appears that you are against securing our borders. Knowing how this hurts the children I must assume that you are for child work slavery and sex slavery. This would make you a Pedophile Enabler--PE for short. Congratulations, you are the first person I've gotten the chance to call a PE.

Doesn't seem that complicated to me - you either are a racist who supports taking babies from parents - or you are an immoral nutcase who supports child trafficking 

 

At least that's what I'm gathering.

Dogblitz is all over the place and hard to follow and the tail light crap is a red hair ring for sure. 

 

Hey, my only point on the mention of the tail light crap was to say that many were deported for minor offenses.  Do you think that's not true?

 

A internet search turns up many articles about it.  For example:

 

https://www.themarshallproject.org/2016/09/26/who-is-ice-deporting

 

Even CNN says so (from 2014):

 

https://www.cnn.com/2014/04/08/opinion/kohn-immigration-deportations/index.html

 

Quote

 


First, anti-immigrant activists insist that the people being deported are dangerous criminals — and that they should be deported faster and at even higher rates. Yet Monday, The New York Times released an analysis of government records revealing that of the nearly 2 million people deported since President Obama took office, two-thirds had no criminal record whatsoever or had committed only minor infractions, such as traffic violations.

I'm not sure I've ever heard a good argument in favor of allowing people who have been swept up by regular law enforcement procedures, who have been determined to be here illegally, to be allowed to stay.

 

What's the purpose of even having a border, or any immigration policy at all for that matter, if that's the case?

See? It's not about protecting families and children. It's about open borders. 

 

Tibs speaks the truth about what is motivating this partisan mudslinging: NEW VOTERS. Nothing more. 

of course. the kids are disposable, the parents are disposable, at least until such time until they are useful, then the narrative reaches a fever pitch. that's the insidious part about the open border crowd.

They are not deported for minor offenses. They are deported for being in this country illegally.

Trump Moves to Obama’s Position on Family Detention, Democrats Still Outraged

 

 

Is a policy ‘child abuse’ simply because Trump is executing it?

 

Given that the courts determined Trump couldn't issue a travel ban, and limited the administration's prosecutorial discretion because "he's racist..." yeah, I'd say there's sufficient precedent to call it child abuse because it's Trump.

Because partisanship trumps logic when emotions are manipulated. 

It's over for the American people.  If you agree with a law, anybody who breaks it must be punished.  If you disagree with a law, you should be able to break it without consequences because it's Hitler.  

 

We lose.  I submit to our Chinese overlords.  Praise Mao.

i realize that. You don't have to call me a knucklehead though.

 

poor wording. I meant that's how they came to the attention of police and were indeed deported.  

 

This is one of the things people are griping about now that they didn't care about a few years ago  was my point. My point was really about hypocrisy.

 

In my state,our governor who I Suspect  will run for prez next time "found out" that police in the stAte were notifying ICE when they picked up someone they suspected as not being a  citizen.  He was livid an ordered it stopped.

 

First off, how did he not know this? I knew it was going on. It had been going on for years.

 

Which brings me to another bit of disingenuous and hypocrisy.

 

Politicians love to say "we are a nation of laws. We must hold them accountable."  They love to say this about Hillary or Trump.   Unless it's a law they don't like or can make political hay from. Then play it up until after the election.

 

It's an issue that may never get solved much less addressed. It's a great campaign issue for both sides. And their donors don't want to do anything about it. It's cheap lsbor.  America was built on cheap labor.  Follow the money.

You don’t need to tell me to follow the money. I support a $50000 fine per violation. We need to bankrupt the people who employ these illegals.

Worse...we've got legislators saying "We are a nation of laws," who actively campaign for the executive to not enforce and even break those laws, instead of...y'know...legislating.

 

The problem isn't the White House.  It's the !@#$s in Congress.

Cost of detaining migrant kids higher than keeping them with families


By Bob Fredericks June 20, 2018

 

The cost of holding migrant children who have been separated from their parents in “tent cities” is $775 per person per night — far more expensive than keeping kids with their parents in detention centers, a new report said Wednesday.

 

The reason for the higher cost to taxpayers, according to an official at the Department of Health and Human Services, is that the need to arrange for security, bring in air conditioning, medical workers and other government contractors is much higher than the costs for existing facilities that are already staffed, NBC News reported.

 

It costs $256 per night to hold kids in permanent HHS facilities like Casa Padre in Brownsville, Texas.

Keeping them with their parents in detention centers like the one run by ICE in Dilley, Texas, cost $298 per person per night, according to an agency estimate when it awarded the contract for the facility in 2014, the network reported.

Same photos published in the Los Angeles Times in 2014.

Do you ever win a point? ?

Important distinction is children and parents were detained together (except in rare cases of suspected trafficking) in 2014 as hope of a deterrent.  The courts then ruled children couldn't be detained after public outrage over that policy.  So, they were basically released until their court date following that until Trump changed the policy.
