    You have no problem with people here illegally (which means they are violating the law) who will work for less than minimum wage taking jobs from American citizens resulting in economic harm to their kids ??

    And you have no problem with separating kids from their parents who are incarcerated ??

    So then you think that all people in the US illegally should be removed ?? The Global legal systems separate parents and children every day and has been doing that for centuries.

    More dishonesty. I’m surprised you haven’t called me a Nazi. That’s common place now in the world of the Democratic Party. Carry on.

    if the illegal stay here for decades have family, work hard, didn't violate law, willing to make up the tax, yes they can stay. but if they have felony, they need to go.

    so again ARE YOU OK WITH BORDER AGENT SEPARATE KIDS FROM THEIR PARENTS, and put them in camp for days or weeks? yes or no is fine. cause you continue saided in your previous post, its not what your represent

    jeez, how hard it is for you to understand.

    I'm talking about kids separate from their parent at the border, is it ok or not, yes or no. If you belief ALL of them are gangester or violent criminal please provide prove. so no excuse, or try to diverge the topic into other direction.

    i'm not talking about parents broke the law by selling drug, they goto jailed, and endanger their child etc. I'm talking about mother and their toddler try to make into US. so dont branch off into different topic.

    there are plenty wrong in the world, dont use that as an excuse to justify another wrong.

    I blame the parents (both citizens and here illegally) who have broken the law and placed their kids in jeopardy. How difficult is that to understand.

    Why didn't you answer @BahamaBob's question? Where was your empathy in 2014?

    This story makes those "conspiracy theorists" who talked about converted WalMarts and other stores being used by DHS to have been quite right.

    I have three grandchildren. 9, 7 and 5. I was very much involved in their early upbringing while my daughter worked so I may assure you I have very recent experience of the needs of young children and babies.

    Well I would agree with that to some extent but taking children, some places say from 4 years, other from 18th months and others argue that they are literally dragging babes off breasts and away from their Mothers. Now you clearly know nothing about attachment in children but for these it is likely to cause very severe and lifelong problems. On newsnight last night we were listening to the young ones in their cages crying and calling for their mothers and fathers. This is unnecessary and deliberate torture.

    We hear that this removal is done without any warning no preparation and whatever the age the children are removed not knowing where their parents are. This will cause severe fear among them. Experts are concerned about PTSD. The US is the only country in the world which takes children away from their parents and puts them in cages and has disgusted the entire world...as people have been saying you can tell a lot from people by how they treat children or how they support treating children and you are supporting children including tiny children being taken from their parents and held in cages with concrete floors.

    On being asked if what you have set up are concentration camps.

    https://consortiumnews.com/2018/06/16/border-angels-fight-trumps-borderland-brutality/


    so you try to excuse your extreme abuse of them by saying they may miss their friends.

    It isn't a ghetto they have been locked in. It is a wire cage with a concrete floor never knowing when or if they will see their family again and there are already children who have lost their parents - the parent being sent home while the child is still in a cage. This is against all law. ...and of course you are also forgetting that the only reason many if not most of these people are there is to try and save the lives of themselves and their children. You deliberately try to ignore the reality in order to blame the victims of your cruelty.

    The US is doing this to families fleeing for their lives with a right to ask for Asylum.

    https://consortiumnews.com/2018/06/16/border-angels-fight-trumps-borderland-brutality/

    Your behaviour indicates as the Democrat who spoke to Newsnight last night says that you are becoming a fascist state - no other word for it - one which I see you condone - and there are no reasons or excuses for it. Families are coming into the US fleeing for their lives and you are separating them and putting children as young as 18 months in wired cells with concrete floors with no parent to hold onto. The US has sunk to the very lowest of the very low. Disgusting.

    Oh yes and I am told Sessions was using Christianity to excuse his torture of these children and their parents. This you getting ready for the Christian Fascism I have been hearing is going to be played out in the US?

    You replied to the post which the question was in. And this reply of yours is the one which I quoted. This is why I asked you why you didn't answer the question.
