wolfriverjoe 1,523 #2 December 21, 2018 Well. I find it truly amazing that so many people say "Those immigrants should follow the law and come into the country legally", yet applaud the Mango Mussolini's attempts to change the law to stop the few legal avenues they have."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

billvon 2,991 #3 December 31, 2018 In related news: Two immigrant children have died while in US custody. "But we did everything we could" was the first response from the US government. Now we are learning about how at least one was quickly checked out, given some medication and released about eight hours before he died. "It's a fluke - we are really doing a _great_ job given that only two kids died" (yes, Peter King actually said that since "these are the only two children that have died . . . ICE has an excellent record.") "No one could have seen this coming." And yesterday there was a report from Arizona Central that showed evidence that there were health problems for at least four months prior to this - children vomiting on their clothes and not being cleaned up, children not even being given soap to wash with. https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/politics/immigration/2018/12/28/migrant-children-deaths-health-warnings-came-months-earlier-border-patrol-jaklein-caal-felipe-gomez/2416379002/ And now, of course, Trump has blamed the (wait for it) democrats for causing the deaths. Yep, that's right. It's the fault of the democrats that kids in cages are dying. I predict he will find a way to blame Clinton and/or Obama before the end of next week.

The responsibility for the children rests on their parents. It is sad that they believed the lies from the Dems and marched their families toward outrageous uncertainty. Really? "Decades after the U.S. stopped institutionalizing kids because large and crowded orphanages were causing lasting trauma, it is happening again. The federal government has placed most of the 14,300 migrant toddlers, children and teens in its care in detention centers and residential facilities packed with hundreds, or thousands, of children. As the year draws to a close, some 5,400 detained migrant children in the U.S. are sleeping in shelters with more than 1,000 other children. Some 9,800 are in facilities with 100-plus total kids, according to confidential government data obtained and cross-checked by The Associated Press. Some of the children are being cared for in Pennsylvania. That's a huge shift from just three months after President Donald Trump took office, when the same federal program had 2,720 migrant youth in its care; most were in shelters with a few dozen kids or in foster programs. Some of the children may be released sooner than anticipated, because this week the administration ended a portion of its strict screening policies that had slowed the placement of migrant kids with relatives in the U.S." https://www.mcall.com/news/nationworld/pennsylvania/mc-nws-immigrant-children-warehoused-pennsylvania-20181218-story.html Violence drives immigration from Central America https://www.brookings.edu/blog/future-development/2018/06/26/violence-drives-immigration-from-central-america/ SOUTHCOM chief: Central America drug war a dire threat to U.S. national security Author(s): General John F.

If I dragged him 1500 miles to put him in that position, yes it would. If it happened here, I would first be dead before they took him.

I suspect you would. >If it happened here, I would first be dead before they took him. So all those refugees who were separated from their children should have murdered the border patrol agents who attempted to separate them, or died trying?

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #13 January 1, 2019 normissJebus teaches hate and division, Ron proves it with a regularity not found in many people his age. That's not really true. The teachings of Jesus are primarily love and tolerance, kindness and giving. I know a lot of Christians (of all varieties) who try their best to practice those teachings in everything they do. I know some people who aren't Christians (or any other religion for that matter) who practice these things too. There are just a LOT of people who claim to be Christian, but substitute hatred & bigotry for love and tolerance, fear & violence for kindness and giving."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

normiss 798 #15 January 1, 2019 Very true, though a LOT of "christians" do interpret it that way from my experience. Most of personal experiences with both believers and non-believers are that most people ARE good. Most. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
