[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that it was terribly that unaccompanied children were treated that way during the Obama administration.  I didn't know about it and if I had I would have protested it.

But I think it is even worse to separate children from their parents the way the Trump administration is doing.  The Trump administration does not have to separate the children from the parents.  They could keep the family units together.  It's not like separating the families saves US tax dollars or something-- it likely costs MORE money to do it this way.  They aren't doing this to save money, they are doing it because it is so punitive and painful that they want to send a message.  They are using the pain of these families as a pawn.   [/quote]

You know it's very easy to avoid, right? If they want to claim asylum, they can go to a port of entry and claim it there.  That way there isn't a charge of illegal entry held against them.

But if they do that, they can still be detained.  [/quote]
