Why are mexicans asking the US for asylum @ the US border & why are so many bringing children w/ no documentation that the children are actually theirs? Why do dems want to let them in without proving this first?
1 2018-06-20 by NIGGA_DICKIN_ur_GIRL
Dems & their useful idiots whether their useful idiots realize it or not are part of a huge conspiracy to move children across borders with no questions asked. They are doing this for political purposes & do not care if children are in harms way as long as they can exploit these children to fulfill their political ambitions. Fuck your open society if it looks like this.

you realise that trump is responsible for this situation, right? its not the dems, or congress, its trump. trump could end this right now in exactly the same way he started it. but he would rather blame the dems and try to gain political points than fix this.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
The parties blame each other for everything and strangely regardless of which party is in power things just keep getting worse.
Next time though, boy them Dems gonna get it done up right!
1 swirly_commode 2018-06-20
you guys are correct. there is a conspiracy going on here. youre wrong about its being played out though. slick willy and the dems may have crafted the current immigration laws but trump is the one attempting to undo anything any dem has ever done while lying, cheating, and blaming the dems for everything. to me, that sounds very "deep state"esque. trump is the puppet of the deep state who are trying to destroy the country and you all are falling for it, even helping them along.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
Guy, if you’re blaming one party over the other you’re the one ‘falling for it’.
1 swirly_commode 2018-06-20
Im not blaming either party. Im blaming trump. He started thr zero tollerance and kidnapping, he can end it whenever he wants. He doesnt want to. He wants to hold those kids hostage till he gets us, the tax payers, to foot the bill for his wall.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
And either party could have fixed immigration via the legislature over the last few decades.
You’re a bit off on the details, and judging by your ridiculous language you’re not interested in anything but partisan bashing.
1 swirly_commode 2018-06-20
Were children being held, without their parents, in internment camps over the lasr few decades? What has happened recently that caused this mess? Can you see the obvious solution that would end it?
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
What’s the obvious solution?
And yes, children have been held apart from their parents in certain circumstances.
What has caused this seems to be decades of inaction on immigration.
1 swirly_commode 2018-06-20
No. What caused this was trump implementing a zero tolerance policy.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
Right, after decades of the same failed policies and inaction of the legislature- and again both parties had the opportunity to do something, and neither did.

to laugh at you. youve seen the news right? trump ended the family separation policy at the border? bwahahahahaha seems you were wrong, son. it was caused by trump policy, started by trumps pen, and ended by trumps pen. maybe now we can get back to enacting proper policy.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
You really have no clue what you’re talking about. Have fun playing tough guy on the internet.
1 swirly_commode 2018-06-20
well, trump did just rescind his zero tolerance policy that was separating families at the border. that was my initial post on this topic, that trump has the power to stop it since he is the one who started it. you are the fools who were towing his line of BS claiming it started decades ago and its all obamas fault, "BUT HILLARY!", and shit. i corrected your errors and you ahd to wait for trump to actually act before you could finally see your errors. you were too busy trying to be edgy, or anarchist, to see the real picture. stop tripping over your own feet and maybe you could walk a little better.

1 AnonDidNothingWrong 2018-06-20
How is trump responsible? It's my understanding this law was passed during the clinton administration.
The vast majority of these kids are brought into this country by traffickers/smugglers. They use these kids for protection. If the law is repealed without another plan in place, the trafficking of children is going to skyrocket.
What do you suggest be done? to stop trafficking? What do you suggest be done with the kids when criminals are arrested?
Surely you don't suggest we kick them out on the street. Surely you don't suggest we let traffickers go free because they claim these kids are theirs. Do you have any suggestions?

1 garthock 2018-06-20
Trump is responsible, because he moved to a zero tolerance policy, which means even the ones attempting to enter legally under asylum are being detained(previous administrations did not detain those seeking asylum)
This change to zero tolerance has caused a dramatic spike in the families being detained(2000 kids detained in the past 6 weeks)
There are also pictures going around that show kids detained during the Obama administration, but they are unrelated, as there was a spike of unaccompanied children entering during 2014 due to a spike in violence in South America.
1 AnonDidNothingWrong 2018-06-20
That was Sessions that switched to a "zero tolerance policy". Not Trump. The law was passed two decades ago, Sessions in enforcing the laws on the books.
Again, how is Trump to blame?
1 garthock 2018-06-20
And Sessions was appointed by Trump. He did not do this without getting Trumps blessing.
When you are in the big chair all paths lead to you. All he has to do is tell Sessions to stop, and it back to the way it was before, but no, he wants this. Trump wants to use this as leverage so his wall will be funded by taxpayers.
1 AnonDidNothingWrong 2018-06-20
It appears you have no idea how any of this works. It has nothing to do with trump. Trump can fire AG Sessions, sure. He can suggest certain things.
Trump does not have the authority to boss around the DOJ. That's not how any of this works. It was designed to prevent exactly that. Checks and balances
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Yeah and then people would say Trump is a dictator, using his power to tell the Department of Justice how to uphold their laws. Trump can’t just tell the Attorney General how he should uphold the countries laws. That’s his job. Why do people think the President has the power to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants? Checks and balances exist for a reason.
1 garthock 2018-06-20
Ok, it's obvious what side you are on. Can you at least admit this is a political game? There are ways to do immigration that does not, or at the very least minimizes the need to separate parents from their children. One side has decided to use this a political tactic to cause immigration reform. The other side is trying to exploit that tactic for the opposite gain.
Both sides are using people, flesh and blood, as ammunition to get their way.
I didn't name parties on purpose, because you and pick and choose which is which depending on your own personal experiences and preferences.
No matter what the cause is, the poor is affected the most.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
I am with you on that. This is a giant political game. Using children as tools to advance an agenda is never ok. Where was the media when this was happening under Obama? So, his policy was to separate children from parents on their second attempt, not first. So that makes it ok? The whole reason for this - The Democrats who wrote the bill intended for it to save children from abuse and trafficking. You think it’s ok to put kids together with a bunch of adults? These people arrive with no documentation, nothing to prove they’re actually related. Traffickers use children as shields against getting caught. The world is not that nice and rosey. People look to take advantage of children who have no say. What is the alternative? Just release thousands and thousands of undocumented, unaccountable, illegal people into our cities and tell them Good Luck??
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
LMFAO! Oh those pictures of kids in cages under Obama are unrelated. Totally different story you guys, come on.
1 garthock 2018-06-20
As to what has caused the recent spike. I am not saying that is not a problem, it is. I was just trying to speak within the last 6 weeks. I just went back to where there was a dramatic increase.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
That’s the issue though, isn’t it? This shit began years ago....not 6 weeks. Nobody had anything to say until everything else the threw at Trump was a dud...so now they try this. Tug at our most basic levels, our hearts and children.
1 NapalmForNarratives 2018-06-20
No, it's Jeff Sessions ... whom the establishment Democrats have protected from Trump's wrath for the sake of Mueller's coup attempt. Meanwhile Sessions has been radicalizing the already weaponized DOJ and preparing it to launch drug, prostitution and immigration sweeps. Perhaps the establishment Democrats will join in the calls for Jeff Session's removal now that Mueller's coup has been suppressed, its plotters are beginning to face justice and Jeff Session's goons are throwing children in cages?
1 mrbojingles1972 2018-06-20
Wrong. Trump only implemented a zero tolerance policy to the laws that have been carried out by Clinton, Bush and Obama. Zero tolerance against people breaking laws is a good thing.
You do realize that this is also a crackdown on child trafficking right? You do realize that the "parents" of these kids can provide no evidence to that. You do realize how easy it is for someone who wants to enter the US to kidnap a child to use? Lax immigration policies of "if you have a child you may enter" encourages this.

You are hiding behind the law because you know you stree in the wrong. There is a difference between legal and moral. The laws were put into place to be able to use when it circumstantialy on a case by case basis.. not implemented for every single person. This is creating chaos because it was never intended to be used this way. We don't have the infrastructure or man power. The court systems are being over run. But keep hiding from morality behind your pool lack of knowledge on how the law was intended to be used. This is going to end in a Republican blood bath and it's not going to be the services coming it itts going to conte from within. Make sure you're on the right side of history.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
What?!?! Laws are to be applied on a case by case basis? No, laws apply to every single person. That’s kinda the point of having laws in the first place.
1 prolix 2018-06-20
Wrong. The point of the law was to let homeland security prosecute people who were either repeat offenders or have prior histories. It made it possible to easily prosecute them. It was never intended to be used on every single person and if it was they would have had the infrastructure and logistics in place to do so. Which they don't so thats why they have the chaos going on that you see now. It's only going to get worse.

I'm not hiding behind anything. Why the outrage over holding people accountable to the laws of this country vs outrage that people are KNOWINGLY attempting to cross a border ILLEGALLY, therefore breaking the law. You aren't looking at this long term. If the precedent is set that those with children will be gleefully accepted with no consequences, what it will turn into is more child trafficking to cross the border and then dump the kids wherever.
What's the point of having laws if we get to ignore them or bitch about them being enforced because feelings.
My priorities: US Citizen children who are homeless and starving US Veterans who are homeless and starving US Citizens who are killed and/or injured by illegal immigrants
Until those three items are addressed there is absolutely no reason we should even be discussing illegal immigrants entering this country
1 prolix 2018-06-20
Why are you so afraid of immigrants? Do you think they are all criminals who are a burden on the state? It sounds like you don't even know any of them. I recommend talking to them and asking them why they do what they do. Yiu might learn something.
1 mrbojingles1972 2018-06-20
Where did I say I was afraid of immigrants? I just don't think we should be going out of our way to accommodate those who wish to illegally cross our borders. There is a process, many follow it everyday. Why should we reward those who wish to jump the line?
And more importantly, why should we put resources in place to house, feed, etc these law breakers when we have our own citizens we should be worrying about.
Pardon me for say so, but until every man/women/child US citizen, especially those who fought for this country are properly taken care of, ILLEGAL immigrants can wait.

1 Skineedog 2018-06-20
No one’s saying let them in but there’s no humane reason to separate children from their families. If you insist they’ve broken the law by asking for asylum, detain them as a family unit. Or deport them immediately. Separating children from the only people they know is just cruel, period.
1 Crooked-man 2018-06-20
The humane reason to separate them is there is no way to prove the adults are in fact their parents. Also, these are people caught illegally entering the U.S. If they're applying for asylum they have to do it at a port of entry and at the first country other than their own. You can't cross Mexico from Guatemala to request asylum.
1 erin136 2018-06-20
This has been my thought with all the media about “separating families” how do they KNOW they are “families” how do they know if these adults are the parents of these kids? And then if they are not what is the fate of these poor kids if not separated? But by separating them where are these “parents” going? Jail? Back?
I don’t know but if I am breaking the law which these “parents” are and dragging my kids along with me while I break the law of course my kids will be taken from me until I have had my day in court and served my sentence. Why is that not understood by the left as a thing?
What’s wrong with this whole picture?
1 __sam_sepiol 2018-06-20
Do you really think every single child has come in with "parents", even the ones who want to stay with their families and cry for their mother and father? Because Trump is separating all children from their parents, whether they broke the law or not.
1 erin136 2018-06-20
Okay but when you say whether they broke the law or not but we are talking about families coming here ILLEGALLY so they are breaking the law either way. They parents should not be brining they kids along to enter a country illegally.
1 ZiggyAnimals 2018-06-20
The intricities are that first timevillegal border crossing is a misdemeanor. Hence why Obama's policy just returned the family back to thier resident country without seperation. Trump policy is to seperate families always, under Obama policy this happened upon the second crossing attempt.
The Obama administration struggled with finding a solution and it is documented they decided not to use seperation of families as a deterrent.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Why has the MSM not once mentioned that Obama also separated families by the thousands? Okay, so it was for the second attempted crossing, not the first....do you not think that if these people are busted that they do not turn right back around and do it again? They have nothing, and have nothing lose. They will try over and over and over again until either they’re jailed, killed or succeed.
1 ZiggyAnimals 2018-06-20
They did mention it, however as part of the larger picture. Just like US families get seperated when a single parent goes to jail, the seperation was resulting from the felony. The difference is mainly those seperations were identical to seperations of US citizens under the same circumstances. These seperations without being a felony are done only to illrgal immigrants.
1 King-Hell 2018-06-20
Everything.
1 jessicarae28382 2018-06-20
Exactly. If you, as an American, broke a law and was sentenced to prison, your children would be taken and put somewhere (if you didn’t have a family member to take them). The court wouldn’t be, oh erin136 has kids so guess she can get away murder.
1 MoldyPoldy 2018-06-20
You realize the kids in this case are being separated before any sort of trial or sentencing, like in your example, right?
1 jessicarae28382 2018-06-20
They are breaking the law by stepping over the border. They only bring kids (most of the time not even there own) to make immigration officials feel bad for them. I’m not saying this is 10 percent of the case, however, Child trafficking is a huge problem at the border. If it was my kid, I would rather them detain the kid rather than let it enter a foreign country with a stranger.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
You really think that someone would let some random person drag their child to a foreign country where they can't go visit them? That's a long, dangerous journey. I sure wouldn't let my sister, neighbor, or anyone otherwise take MY child to another country without me
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Yes. They do it all the time. The parents realize their kids chances are better in America without their parents than if they stay where they are. So yes, parents absolutely do that every single day. Either that or the traffickers and cartel members just snatch the kids and take them anyway.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
That's perhaps the case for some, but there's no way you could prove that to be the case for all.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Obviously it’s not the case for every single person. I’m sure there are plenty of honest legit families that have gotten caught in this mess too. They knew what they were getting into when they decided to come here. The question I have is what is being told to these people to make them think nothing will happen to them? They should know by now that new new regime doesn’t play around.
1 im-a-sock-puppet 2018-06-20
Illegally crossing the border is a misdemeanor with a $250 fine, and not many Americansor or foreigners get sent to prison or detained for a misdemeanor offense like littering or traffic violations. A majority of the time it's a ticket and a court date and seldom jail time.
1 jessicarae28382 2018-06-20
ITS STILL ILLEGAL. No matter how minuscule the crime. If I crossed over illegally to Mexico, I would face 2 to 10 years in a harsh Mexican prison. I don’t agree with the separation of kids, however we have to stop the influx of illegal aliens into our country.
1 im-a-sock-puppet 2018-06-20
Yeah, it's still illegal, however most people find it immoral that a misdemeanor is being punished by detention and the forced separation of families. Families in America are not often detained and split up due to misdemeanors such as traffic violations.
I didn't know that it was a 2-10 year punishment for illegal entry into Mexico. That's a little confusing because when I went in they waved me through without giving me a travel Visa. I cant find anything on the internet, you got any sources for that?
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
Why? Why do we have to stop illegal aliens from coming in? I truly don't understand that part. We don't have any legs to stand on, considering all of our ancestors came here illegally too. Unless you're a Native, your opinion is very hypocritical.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Why? Because they are not legal, lawful residents of our country. We have borders and laws for a reason. You really think people should just be able to come here and set up shop automatically? It doesn’t work like that.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
Not automatically, no. But this is the country made up of immigrants.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Yes, immigrants who did it the correct way, and followed the laws. I’m perfectly cool with immigrants from all countries joining us, it’s the ones who break the law and try to sneak in that I am talking about.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
I mean, do you know what conditions the illegal immigrants are coming from?
The person I know is from Honduras, where police have to wear masks on duty, because if they're recognized, they'll be killed. Dead bodies are left in the streets for days.
I can't imagine waiting for years in that environment to see if another country will take me in. Especially when the Honduran government may or may not even give me the go ahead to leave.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20

I don't really see how illegal immigrants are bothering me. Honestly, the one that I know (who I'm not really allowed to talk about or I would explain further) has done more for me than most other people have.
So, when I think about it, I have empathy and would want someone to have empathy for me if I was in the same situation. Because, let's face it, we could be and possibly would have been if Doofus had actually gotten us into a full on war with N.K.

Yes, because what happened in the 1700’s is analogous to our situation today. The Indians got a raw deal, so in turn that means we should open our borders to everyone 300 years later?
1 jessicarae28382 2018-06-20
Thank you. Me too. It’s also a slap in the face to anyone who took the time and came here legally.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Exactly. If all you have to do is sneak in, why should anyone do it the right way?
1 WinterEcho 2018-06-20
Littering and traffic tickets aren't misdemeanors, people go to jail for misdemeanors, that can be up to a year. They don't get to take their kids with them.
I've seen such ridiculous misinformation from people like you: Trump is sending the parents back and keeping the kids, Obama would send them all back, kids are being kept in inhumane conditions... Do some research instead of talking out your ass.
1 im-a-sock-puppet 2018-06-20
My bad, clearly I've been using that wrong. Would the right word be infraction? I've been going off this https://codes.findlaw.com/us/title-8-aliens-and-nationality/8-usc-sect-1325.html and I assumed that a $50-250 fine was a misdemeanor.
And sorry if it seemed like I was spreading misinformation. From what I've read the Trump administration has been keeping parents in detention until their federal court date and by extension keeping their children separate. If you got any more info I'd appreciate it cause I wouldn't mind learning more.

Because there is audio of 1 kid crying on the news. People are such propaganda sheep.
1 Choncho773 2018-06-20
You do realize it’s not only “Mexicans” it’s Central Americans that are coming over the most with their children and Trump is just trying to justify building this wall that will cost tax payers more money.

Why does America spend billions bombing and destabilizing other countries, then complain when the refugees they create want to come to America to escape the horror back home?
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
America is not bombing Mexico, silliness.
1 King-Hell 2018-06-20
These aren't just Mexicans. Many are South Americans. America has been busy destabilizing South America for 50 years. Your CIA turned it into a drug infested shithole and the families there just want to get out. They grew up being told that America was the promised land, just like many generations of displaced europeans. They believed that "Bring us your huddled masses" crap and came, to be met by men with bayonets ripping their children out of their arms and putting them in wire cages.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
Most are from Mexico and with 98% of asylum claims from Mexico being fraudulent it makes getting to folks with legitimate claims much more difficult.
Unfortunately this was a long time coming, but something had to change and since there is little change from the legislature options are limited.
1 King-Hell 2018-06-20
Stop creating refugees and your illegal immigration problem will largely disappear. Do you think someone will uproot his family and make them walk to a foreign land unless there's no other option?
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
Seems you’re mixing legitimate refugees with the vast majority that are not legitimate and that are clogging the system.
Obviously someone will uproot their family to travel to a foreign land, it’s been an issue for a long time and there are millions of illegal immigrants already in America.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
Where are you getting your "facts" from regarding which immigrants are "legitimate" and which are not?

Shit argument. Russia was destabalizing central & south america as well as the Nazi’s. The whole region was fucked even if we chose to do nothing.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Yeah, all that bombing we do in Mexico....
1 DonnaGail 2018-06-20
We have never bombed Mexico.
1 XxJefferson-StatexX 2018-06-20
Virgin ground eh?
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
people are complaining about ALL immigrants, not just south of the border ones.
1 DonnaGail 2018-06-20
People in the USA are only complaining about ILLEGAL immigrants, not all immigrants.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
Not the ones that I've listened to. Take my mom for instance. She complains about Muslims, too.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
What are we supposed to do with all these people illegally flooding into our country? Do we just give them a wad of cash at the border and send them on their merry way? Do Dems really want open flows of migrants with no oversight into our country? What’s the point of having a border? What’s the point of having legal immigration, when you can just hop the border and have everything handed to you???
I have a small child, and I would fight to the death of someone tried to take him from me. But, I am also not putting him in an extremely dangerous situation and breaking the law while he’s in my care. It’s illegal to enter our country without permission. If you do something illegal you get arrested. If you have kids with you while you get arrested, and have no other family to take care of them, what is to be done with the children??? People act like these kids are being held forever. They are processed and released. It’s an awful situation, with no good outcome. What’s even more awful is using children to further your political goals. The ABC world news played about 10 seconds of children crying. No way to prove it’s actually the migrant children, just kids crying for their parents. This is used to tug at our most basic human emotions, and it works like a charm.
1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
We actually have a terrible immigration system. I know this bc I know someone who has been trying for 18 YEARS to become legal. Maybe if we had an actual process that people could follow, we wouldn't have this problem.
Maybe if, instead of throwing money at other countries like we do elsewhere, we could actually help to grow the Latin American countries until they're stable and people wouldn't want to come here. Maybe we shouldn't contribute to their instability.
Do you really think that people WANT to flee their home countries, their land, their houses, the rest of their family, etc to come to a place where they can't speak the language or earn money or even come to safely?
1 Random_Guys_Shadow 2018-06-20
What a sad thread, it is so much easier to complain than to present solutions.
1 NIGGA_DICKIN_ur_GIRL 2018-06-20
Solution. Deport all of them & build a wall. Tell those who want to move here to get the fuck in line behind those already following the rules.
1 Sirstas 2018-06-20
America used to have one spot called Ellis island on the east coast of the US. It served as a Federal Inspection Station for most immigrants on the east coast. It was closed in 1954 when Air travel became the most dominant form to immigrate in the US. I bring this up only because America is known to have points of access. Ellis island is how my family came over to America. I know i may be asking this in the wrong spot, but why cant we have a Federal Inspection on the southern border?
Like it or not we are getting flooded with a mass of people in a short amount of time.I myself dont like the fact of separation. It is obvious that we dont have the facilities to handle the mass of people coming though that border.
1 SoCo_cpp 2018-06-20
Under Obama, if you drug a kid with you on this dangerous and illegal journey, any kid, you got away with it for free.
1 cerebral_scrubber 2018-06-20
Guy, if you’re blaming one party over the other you’re the one ‘falling for it’.
1 UncleSnake3301 2018-06-20
Oh damn, so Trump has actually been working for the Deep State this entire time?

1 garthock 2018-06-20
As to what has caused the recent spike. I am not saying that is not a problem, it is. I was just trying to speak within the last 6 weeks. I just went back to where there was a dramatic increase.

someones butthurt from their recent PWNing. its ok if you wana cry, dude.

thats my original post you responded to. bwajhahahahahahaha. butthurt much?
1 im-a-sock-puppet 2018-06-20
Yeah, it's still illegal, however most people find it immoral that a misdemeanor is being punished by detention and the forced separation of families. Families in America are not often detained and split up due to misdemeanors such as traffic violations.
I didn't know that it was a 2-10 year punishment for illegal entry into Mexico. That's a little confusing because when I went in they waved me through without giving me a travel Visa. I cant find anything on the internet, you got any sources for that?

1 Radasscupcake 2018-06-20
Why? Why do we have to stop illegal aliens from coming in? I truly don't understand that part. We don't have any legs to stand on, considering all of our ancestors came here illegally too. Unless you're a Native, your opinion is very hypocritical.
