Keeping children in cages is disgusting. Don’t be an idiot by supporting that shit. Imagine blaming the parents for what your own government is doing smh.
Kids wouldn’t be in cages if the idiot parents wouldn’t drag them across mexico to a country loudly saying ‘hey, if you try to break in here illegally, we’ll treat you like the criminals you are and lock you up’.
They know what they’re getting into, they’re given plenty of advanced warning and yet for some reason they keep on coming.
but you are right, personally I think we should follow Mexico’s lead, and do what they do to guatemalan migrants coming over their southern border:
Swat raids on illegal refuges and chasing the bastards back over the border under threat of being shot.

Let's see...
America claims to be the land of the free and home of the brave. It also claims to be the land of hope and opportunity.
Mexico is currently dealing with a horrendous drug war where people are threatened kidnapped and killed on a regular basis.
Mexican people look over at shiny promises America offers; a better start in life where you and your kids are much less likely to die or be dragged into all the shit drug cartels pull. Can you blame them for wanting to cross the border.
But wait, America turns out not to be the land of hope and opportunity, nor the land of the free or home of the brave. Why? According to right wing shits like this, that's only for white people. Mexican people either must risk their lives and remain in a place where the drug cartels fuck their neighbourhoods up, or be locked in cages... much like Japanese people during WW2.
So, you're okay with torturing children to teach their parents not to commit a "crime" that doesn't really hurt anybody 'cause you need to feel like you need to have law and order at all costs (not to mention fewer brown folks here, right)? Torturing children!? What the fuck is wrong with you?
“Keeping children in cages is disgusting. Don’t be an idiot by supporting that shit. Imagine blaming the parents for what your own government is doing smh.”
That, and don’t you fucking DARE deflect, bitch.
Yeah here's the thing: NOTHING ABOUT CLAIMING REFUGEE STATUS AT THE BORDER IS ILLEGAL! Trump flatly refusing to process their applications and the actions he's taking to keep them out and punish those who enter actually IS, and evidently he's perfectly right in assuming the people who aren't too stupid to realize that aren't in a position to stop him and the people who are in a position to stop him don't actually care outside of it being a PR talking point.
The ones who made every effort to "know what they're getting into" are following the law as it's been agreed on internationally and were expecting the US to do the same. It's in that regard they didn't actually know what they were getting into because Trump's rhetoric keeps vaguely and falsely implying breaches of the law that weren't happening, empty words acting as a smokescreen. You and your ilk are looking for reasons not to care about that while ironically chanting that "nation of laws" line and ignoring said laws.
You know who also dragged their kids across, not Mexico, but the Atlantic, in search of a new life? The people on the Mayflower; that’s who!
Not to mention all the others who have since done the same; Swedes and Irish, Italians and Spaniards, and many, many others, for hundreds of years. But NOW it’s suddenly enough, THESE are not welcome. YOUR ancestors was of course welcome, but not THESE kids.
How do you compile that thought-process in your brain?
For the umpteenth time; seeking asylum is a CIVIL RIGHT!!! It’s America that’s the criminal here, asshole!
They had even more warnings about what would happen to them if they stayed where they are. Warnings like husbands being shot and killed, children becoming drug-dealers, daughters being raped and killed. That’s why they keep on coming.
I think we all know that brown people being abused is the only thing that gets the right wing majini hard these days. It’s even more fun for them if the brown people die.
We can thank Stephen “Skin Suit” Miller for all this. Hopefully he’ll be remembered in history as one of the most wretched life forms to have ever existed, like a human version of the Plague.
Right wingers are simply nauseating.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
