[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a preschool teacher who works primarily with immigrant families, this terrifies, enrages and sickens me in equal measure. The stress these families are facing is really becoming more evident with each passing day. 
I am ashamed of this country.[/quote]

They applied for asylum. They are LEGAL.

Read what their lawyer said:

[quote][i]
Stenvik said Liam’s family has an “active asylum case” with no deportation orders.

“I have viewed the legal paperwork with my own eyes,” Stenvik said, adding that leaders from Liam’s school visited his home on Tuesday after he was detained to provide support to his family, including a middle school student in the district who returned home to find out his father and brother had been taken.

Marc Prokosch, who is a lawyer representing Ramos’ family, said he is still not sure of the exact current whereabouts of Liam and his dad. He believes, based on the experience of other clients he has worked with, that they are currently in Texas in a family holding cell.

“Every step of their immigration process has been doing what they’ve been asked to do, and so this is just … cruelty,” Prokosch said, noting that Ramos’ family is currently going through an asylum application process.

“I’m exploring whether we file a habeas corpus petition to get him out, we’d have to actually file that down in Texas now,” Prokosch added. [/i][/quote]

This family is "legal." [/quote]

Sure they are. You can pay a lawyer to say anything. [/quote]
