[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to bring some attempted calm to today's DCUM hysteria...

As for why the child was taken at all, this part matters: ICE does not leave small children unattended when a parent is arrested. When a minor’s legal guardian is taken into custody and there is no immediately available alternative guardian on scene, the child is taken into ICE custody with the parent under family detention procedures. That is exactly what happened here. The child was not arrested as a criminal; he was placed into family custody because his parent was detained and there was no one else legally available to take him at that moment.
Finally, the claim that the child is “a legal citizen born here” is not supported by the reporting. The articles describe the family as asylum seekers with an active immigration case. None of the major coverage states the child is a confirmed U.S. citizen. Saying that as a fact when it hasn’t been established is misinformation.[/quote]

In other words, the family is legally here, and ICE kidnapped a 5-year old. They used a 5-year old as bait to attempt to lure the mother out. Pure evil.[/quote]

That is not what the article says. The article says the child has been detained to the Texas detention center...and also another adult was there asking to look after the boy while they detained the father. ICE detained both anyway. Are we reading the same article? Do you have kids? And the father fled because he was scared...[/quote]
