DACA, immigration reform whatever

[HtownHorn 15236]

I know this will come as a shock to most of you, but under the Obama administration immigrant children were turned over to human traffickers because of lack of due diligence on their part.

To those of you who were saying Obama didn't separate families, well these people don't believe you.

It’s hip to be outraged. 

It's moral outrage, which is why Laura Bush who has always been publicly silent took out an op-ed in the Washington Post. It's why religious organizations ranging from the Roman Catholic Church to the Southern Baptist Convention have spoken out against this policy. It's why Trump supporters like Franklin Graham have spoken out against this policy. This is about moral vs immoral.

Wait, so people did complain about the (different) Obama policy?   Nice job undermining your own false narrative.

1,995 children taken from parents in family border separations in just six weeks.   How many were there under Obama?

Yes, this is the only time what I described has happened.   Tell us when it has happened before — specifically a broad, extended policy to charge misdemeanor illegal entry offenses in order to separate families at the border.  When exactly was that, when thousands of children were previously taken from parents in a six-week span based in illegal entry misdemeanor charges?

That's not family separation data.  Those are kids who didn't arrive at the border with parents.  There have been 1,995 children taken from parents in family border separations in just six weeks under Trump.   How many were there under Obama? 

[Johnny Sack 8397]

So concentration camps are okay for unaccompanied minors?  Is that what we are saying?

They are but they don't know it. 

They are trying to curb the moral outrage and stick it to the libs but in doing so they are normalizing state sponsored child abuse.

It's truly amazing to behold.

They've neither watched this, or be willing to acknowledge its content - this is, as already admitted, about optics.  About their "side" using this is a fucking political stunt.  They won't touch the fact that this is a carry-over from the previous administrations policies...

It's not a carry over you dimwit.  Trump enacted his 'zero tolerance' policy.  It is decidedly different than past administrations.  When you have Laura Bush issuing an opinion piece on the subject decrying this 'policy', it's patently fucking obvious something is wrong.

Call it what it is, Trump is trying to use these kids as a negotiating tool for immigration reform.  It's a bold strategy Cotton....

BabaYaga and HtownHown deserve to go to hell along with anyone else associated with or supporting this practice. And I mean everyone who tolerates it or enforces it. Bullshit like I'm just doing my job should not be tolerated.

[Mojo Hand 4580]

Let's just step back and enjoy that the "evidence" that Obama did the same thing without anyone complaining is a picture of people protesting against the notion of Obama doing it.  The evidence is a protest!  The cognitive dissonance is incredible.

You tell us.  Under the current policy, the parents are jailed at the border on misdemeanor illegal entry charges.  How many of the parents you're citing under Obama were in the same situation?

Purposely separating children from their mothers is far different from having to place children who didn't have family somewhere. Again, you deserve hell. I hope one day you realize how terrible this whole thing is and how terrible you've been for ignoring it.

You keep asking other people questions, yet refuse to answer the simplest of questions about your claim that Obama did the same thing.   How many children were separated from their parents at the border by the Obama administration charging their parents with illegal entry?  1,995 children in six weeks under Trump.  How many when Obama supposedly did the same thing?

They're also sending some (most?) of the parents back to other countries.  While leaving their children in cages in the U.S.
