[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of bitching and moaning here and by political pundits, but no real solutions offered.  
This is a crisis.  And, it was NOT created by this administration.  Another problem that needs to be cleaned up by Trump.

So, those of you complaining, hating, and blaming Trump - what exactly is your solution?  
- What do you do with children who come through the border with someone who is not family?
- What do you do with children who come over unaccompanied?
- What do you do with children who come over with a parent who breaks the law by entering illegally? 
- Where do you propose these family units are held, given that space is limited?  
- Specifically, how do we enforce our border laws?

Catch and release, as practiced by previous administrations is not an option.  It was one of the policies that caused this problem.  Most of those caught and released are still here today, hiding from authorities.

How do we deal with these facts:

Since this time last year, there has been a 325% increase in unaccompanied children entering illegally.
Since this time last year, there has been a 435% increase in family units entering illegally.
Over the last 10 years, there has been a 1,700% increase in asylum claims.  
We are experiencing an asylum backlog of 600,000 cases. 
Since 2014, the US has admitted more than half a million illegal minors and family units, most of whom are still at large in the US.  [/quote]

You’ve offered no proof of your facts.   Where’s your cite?  Pulling numbers from some shady bunch of racists like CIS, and aware of how deservedly reviled they are?  What in God’s name is the justification for implementing this SPECIFIC TRUMP POLICY?  You cool with border agents mocking terrified preK/K/elem kids who don’t know, literally are deliberately not told, if they will **ever** see their parents again?

You’re a faux everything - news reader, intellectual, human.   Your wall of bullshit text is just that.[/quote]

These were the specific numbers given by Kirstjen Nielsen at the press briefing today.  I took notes.  
And, again.... more bitching and moaning and no solutions.  [/quote]

Another little factoid from today’s briefing.  Of the 12,000 kids apprehended who have crossed the border illegally, 10,000 of them came unaccompanied.  [b]That means that their parents sent them on this dangerous journey on their own.  Their parents don’t seem to have concern for their safety[/b].  I would argue that they are getting better treatment, care, and supervision here, in detention, than they received with their parents.  [/quote]

You don't seem well informed.  Parents send their kids alone out of complete desperation and because the [b]"coyotes"[/b] who help these kids navigate the journey cost upwards of $5,000 - a lifetime savings for some of these families.  They have to chose - Sophie's Choice style - which child leaves and has a glimmer of hope of a better life.

You people are so stupid and craven ... It's just sad.  I wish we could send you south in exchange for some of these families seeking asylum.  [/quote] Seriously, I would not defend parents who trust their kids lives to ''coyotes'' human traffickers. Any desperation does not compensate for their actions to send their kids hell knows where with hell knows whom. "Coyote" is pretty suggestive word, you know.[/quote]

What would y3ou know about being in such a desperate situation?  What would you know what it's like to fear constantly for your life and your child's life?  What would you know about the hopelessness of extreme poverty?[/quote]
I am the above PP and on top of what you listed I know first hand what ethnic cleansing is.
[/quote]
And you weren't desperate tonget out?  Did you think, "better to sit here and die rather than try to sneak into another country and live?"[/quote]

First of all, the victims of ethnic cleansing are [i]genuinely  eligible[/i] for asylum. 
Yes, people were desperate to get out, and with a [i]real asylum eligibility[/i] a lot of countries were ready to open their doors to them [i]immediately[/i], led by ''horrible and cold-hearted'' America. 
You know why? Because [i]genuine[/i] eligibility is different from [i]economic[/i] migration labeled [i] ''asylum''[/i]. "Sneaking in" is irrelative to asylum seekers but directly corresponds with illegal economic migration.[/quote]

You know nothing about immigration law. You are talking about refugees. People who are given official refugee status. This is a completely separate process from Asylum. Anyone can claim and be adjudicated for asylum if they get their feet on US soil and claim it. And 'irrelative' is not a word. When DHS closes ports of entry Asylum seekers will sneak across.

I posted the following as a separate thread since I believe this deserves attention. But, (as I expected) the thread was locked. So, posting it here. Hope people's eye can open up to the sinister techniques of this administration...

[color=red][b]Sessions' new "Zero Tolerance policy", asylum port deception, Kid snatching and blaming Democrats[/b][/color]

Most people (including me) have been confused about what the relationships of each of these and wonder who the root cause of the current emotional abuse of immigrant children. I am finally getting to understand the whole picture. So thought of starting this thread to explain the dots.

1. Sessions announced "Zero tolerance policy" on May 8 announcing that every person who enters USA illegally will be criminally prosecuted. [b]This is the change from previous administration.[/b] Our Asylum law (https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/refugees-asylum) allows administrations the options for asylum seekers not to be charged criminally even if they are inside US without proper approval. So, Sessions decided this admin will not honor the leniency based on the asylum seeker's individual situation.

2. There are several reports that many entry point for asylum seekers were closed and delayed. Asylum seekers were told there is no space anymore to grant entry. Many asylum seekers (who were already have traveled many miles against all odds) crossed border in desperation and surrendered to border patrols or apprehended by border patrol. Even though they expressed their intention to seek asylum, they were criminally charged and put into criminal proceeding.

3. Children were forcibly separated from parents (to use this as deterrent for future asylum seekers as reported from previous interviews of John Kelly and Sessions).

5. They had the arguments ready, to use Flores vs. Reno case as the basis to separate the children and to blame the Democrats even though Flores vs.  Reno case started in Reagan's time and was settled after a long court battle during Clinton time to provide detained immigrant Children human environment. [b]This law does not require children to be separated from parents, just requires Children to be treated well.[/b] But can be used (remember that this was not what was done by any administration since 1997, when the law was passed) to separate them from Criminally charged parents. So, the [b]interpretation of this law is a change from other administration[/b].

So basically, Sessions policy reversal and a deception at the asylum port is used to trap immigrants into this situation so that they can create an environment where asylum seekers would be more afraid to come to USA than to live in countries where they are fleeing from.

Trump also has a ready-made bargain ready. If the situation goes out-of-hand he would blame the Democrats and make them to come to table so that he could use this human-right crisis to get funding for his wall. This is beyond devious.[/quote]

Thank you for posting. Unfortunately, the Trump idiots won't take the time to read it.
