She can come and go to el salvador or mexico as much as she pleases or better yet move to her home country to be with her parents! Illegal kids or any kids for that matter need to understand American LAWS and learn to abide by them and their parents illegal or not are responsible for teaching them that! MAGA

Sir/ma'am, you deserve a lot f respect. I wish all of the us immigrants have the same respect for our laws.

He is arrested for being illegal in the country, not for the DUI

So why bring up an ancient DUI at all? Having had a DUI eons ago somehow triggers high priority removal action a decade later? Makes no sense.

Because it is criminal conviction and it is on his record. Why would we tun our face away from the record?

Send the kids with him.

I am sure there are plenty liberals here who are eager to provide housing, food, medical care and will foot the cost of education for this kids. Can't wait to hear the stories.

She didn't say she's an immigrant. Said she's Hispanic. So telling that you think that means she's an immigrant.

How these boys (they are not "men") go home to their families and pretend to be normal humans absolutely blows my mind.

Romulo Avelica-Gonzalez, an undocumented father of four U.S.-born children, has lived in this country for more than 20 years. On Tuesday, he was dropping his daughters off at school, as he does every morning. He and his wife had already dropped off their 12-year-old daughter and were headed to drop off her 13-year-old sister next when Avelica-Gonzalez was detained by immigration officials a block from his daughter's school in Highland Park.

Um - you do realize DHS strictly adheres to all EEO laws, regs, and policies, and that many ICE employees are women, right?

You sound unhinged.

And you're grasping at straws. The vast majority are men and I hope their families are not bearing the brunt of the psychological damage being inflicted upon these officers. It takes a special kind of monster to lay in wait for fathers and mothers.

Yes. Our navy seals our monsters too. I am still mad they killed Mr. Bin Laden. He had kids and like 4 wives there when it happened. We killed him in another country. People who arrest and kill fathers all should suffer the same fate. Bad people they are hurting americas image.

I am positive this was meant to be sarcastic! Our Navy Seals are monsters because they stopped the man responsible for killing thousands of American lives from continuing to plot and carry out additional attacks? And, bo-hoo, we killed him in another country? Well, that's where he was. These Navy Seals are heroes, risking their lives to save others', and I would think that even liberals would acknowledge that.

I am afraid that sob stories like this, literally, will cause Americans to get weak at the knees to enforce our laws, which are put in place for a reason, not just to make the law books visually thicker. Lets be clear, the reason this child is crying is not because the ICE agents arrested the dad, but because the dad decided to break US laws, that caused him to be arrested.

Every criminal has a softer side, and a family, often a good loving family. A crime has been committed and we are each responsible for our decisions and actions. Immigrants, legal or otherwise, are subject to our laws like everyone else so long as they are in the United States. We cannot be afraid of enforcing the laws on our books just because it may make someone feel sad.

I hope the family in the video find a way forward that is in accordance with the laws of the United States. I'm a naturalized citizen, as is my wife. I understand the yearning for a better life first hand, but there is a process, and a right way to go about it.

At a budget meeting one wanted higher property taxes for support of illegals. Another told that person to feel free to donate.
