    I don't know bout the rest of you, but I'm so tired of hearing about this crap! Here's a novel idea for the cretinous parents: If you don't wanta be separated from your children, keep your ignorant asses at home in your shitthole country! We don't WANT or especially NEED your worthless asses here in this country, sucking off the welfare system! Most of you don't have IQs much over 75, and believe me, we have enough ignorant azz people here now! Mostly DEMOCRATS, and liberal idiots! In fact, Austin is FULL of them! So, keep your ignorant selves right where you are! Please!!

    I’ll believe that they really care when they (Dems, liberals, progressives, etc.) say “don’t put that guy in prison” who (raped my daughter, scammed my gramma, smashed my new car because he was drunk, ...) because it would break up his family and take him away from his kids!

    I just checked with the local state prison and they don’t let those inmates bring their family members...

    Exactly what I was thinking. We’ve got thousands (tens of thousands) of folks locked up - male AND female. Some of them will be separated from their children virtually forever.

    These illegal border crossers are separated for a relatively short period of time, until their cases can be adjudicated and they’re deported. In any case, they’ve broken the law so it’s a conscious decision they’ve brought on themselves - not unlike the folks serving time in prison.

    DHS Secretary did a presser this afternoon. Man, she is one tough cookie, and I say that with the greatest respect. I would not want to cross her. Anyway, she says the children are not separated unless the parents did something illegal or they are being brought across by people other than their parents. She made the distinction between parents & child presenting themselves at a border station for asylum (not separated) and those that cross illegally.

    Much of this is being ginned up by the dims for the midterms. Surprise, surprise.

    I too am sick of hearing about it. So much so, that I almost didn't even look at this thread. Now I wish I hadn't.

    Simple question- how many American children are separated from their parents every day when their parents engage in illegal activity?

    We are going to hear a lot more about it, at least until after the mid term elections.
    Yep, this exactly what it is about. And my fear is the low information voters will buy it. And don't kid your self, there are low information repub voters also.

    I don't think it's the parents that are making so much noise. Democrat politicians are aiming this at Trump, although it was a law passed by the democrats.
    I agree with the dims part, but am confused by your statement about the parents. Which parents are you talking about? Liberals, legal immigrants, illegal immigrants?

    The illegal immigrants of course, at least I don't believe any citizen children are being separated at the border.
