[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok where should they go when the parents runaway [/quote]

I mean, I understand why his mom didn’t open the door, but the fact is, she didn’t. So he was kept with his other parent. If he’d been taken from both parents and put into foster care, people wouldn’t like that either (understandably). [/quote]

Yes, child protective services should have been called. ICE could have left them safely in their care, and driven away with the man they cam to take.

The social worker from CPS could have asked the child, and the school officials if need be, who his mother was, and the child could have then pointed to the lady in the house and said "That's my mom".  With ICE away from the house, mom would have very happily opened up the door to take her child. Probably at the same time she opened the door for her middle school child.

That's what should have happened. Don't be obtuse. "The mom didn't open the door" for Pete's sake. There were options. Once Ice went away, plenty of options. Why didn't they call Child Protective Services?[/quote]

NP, also if the family has a pending asylum claim and court date then why is the dad being taken away anyway? ICE never even should have been on this family’s property.

I think it is because ICE agents have performance quotas. They get a $50,000 signing bonus, but they don't get it all at once. They get maybe $10,000 each year and ONLY if they hit their performance metrics, which includes (I have been told) an average of 8 bodies captured per working day (day in the field). It doesn't matter if they capture US citizens or people here legally either. It doesn't matter if people are detained and released with no charges either.

That's why they are basically out hunting humans. That's what this has all been about.

If you get in their way and slow them down? You are getting in the way of their $10,000 bonus. And these guys they have hired are not from well off backgrounds - that money must be incredibly enticing.

If there's one change that could be made by Congress to ICE I wish they could remove the bounty system and the performance metrics. Give them their $10,000 bonus no matter what.
