Separating children from immigrant lawbreakers

You do know you don't have to apply for asylum at a port of entry, right?

You know what? Fuck you. Fuck you for letting him slowly bleed out instead of finishing him off with the kill shot.

Currently, ILLEGAL immigration results in temporary detention while there is a determination made as to the immigrant's status. Had those SAME immigrants come to an immigration checkpoint they would have been given a court date and released. It is the FACT that they attempted to enter "ILLEGALLY" that creates the detention. They do it to themselves.

• The Holocaust was LEGAL
• Slavery was LEGAL
• Segregation was LEGAL.
• People who hid Jews in their homes were criminalized.
• People who freed slaves were criminalized.
• People who stood up for equality and justice were criminalized.
• Legality is not a guide for morality!

Also, per the consent decree, immigrant CHILDREN cannot be held longer than 20 days before being released and placed with either foster care of relatives. The delay is so that relatives can be located. Previously, while detained under the Trump administration they were temporarily housed in TENTS with AIR CONDITIONING and allowed to freely play while getting nourishing food, secure sleeping quarters, and health checkups/treatment.

Yes, there is that 20 day maximum. The same 20 day maximum that Trump and Republicans are tryin' to repeal 'n replace with an "indefinite period".

Currently they are being detained while remaining with their parent(s) unless there is a compelling reason to separate them.

Do you have a "better" public policy than that? Or do you continue to chew on yesterday's news with fake memes based on images from past administrations?

Currently....effective the past 4 or 5 days..they are. The previous Trump policy was to remove all children from their parents. All of them. Zero tolerance for misdemeanors.

Do I have a "better" public policy than that? It seems that the old, pre "Zero Tolerance" nonsense, policy was working pretty well. It wasn't 100% perfect but it seemed to work. What it DIDN'T do was fire up Trump's pathetic base, and that is why it was changed.

Hatred of #ThosePeople is a core conservative value, but NOT a core American value.

Full retard. You just went full retard. Don't go full retard, retard.
