[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that during Obama's term, these children arrived alone as unaccompanied minors. So there was no separation from parents effected on the U.S. side, and there was also no "family reunification" in the cards as it wasn't readily known where the parents where. This was the time when the waves of unaccompanied children were crossing the border. [/quote]

So if parents are willing to allow their kids to take this dangerous trip alone, why is separating families so horrible? [/quote]

Exactly

And further, if these were the American children of... say, Trump supporters.... the self righteous pearl clutches here would be DEMANDING these kids be forcibly removed from their parents for being sent on such a dangerous journey.

Remember- a woman in Silver Spring very nearly lost her 8 and 10 year old kids to the state simply for letting them walk a few blocks to the store. Why? Because people said she was an unfit mother to allow them outside alone.

But somehow it's perfectly ok for Guatemalan parents to tell their 9 year olds to walk all the way through Mexico to California. And THAT's not cause for removing them from their parents. Nah.... no. Nope.

[b]These individuals are human beings[/b]   Just because some people sent their children across the border unaccompanied does not mean it is alright for the US government to separate other children from their parents as a deliberate policy to deter illegal border crossings 
This is what I personally find so appalling- the callous disregard for the well-being of the missing children and the eagerness to deliberately separate children from their parents as a form of punishment and deterrence

Why Obama locked them in cages like dogs then?

Actually, Humane Society provides an elevated beds for hips and shoulders health, REAL blankets and toys to dogs. Obama locked these kids in cages like no dog is locked in this country.

But keep talking about how bad Trump is lol:[/quote]
