US moves to abolish child migrant custody limits

Migrant families who cross the southern border of the US illegally could be detained indefinitely under a new regulation announced by the Trump administration.

It replaces an agreement that set a limit on how long the government could hold migrant children in custody.

CNN and Fox News are still waking up the breaking news. But CNN calls all old news "Breaking News" every minute for a day or two. LOL

The media has a tight grip on people's minds. The game is to appeal to to the emotionally weak, which is a very powerful tactic. I agree with you, but you won't be saving anyone with these posts. You are better off talking to the people around you, as they say, we are an average of the five people that you hang out with the most.

But don't we count when you go out to vote? Discussions, exchanging ideas and possibly converting minds can convert votes.

I love your quote. It is profound and very important.

Because it was the child's idea to come here?

No, because the parents need to learn a lesson. Illegal immigration has been taken for granted at the South of the Border because this problem has been kicked down the road by many presidents before Trump. Reagan legalized over 3 million illegal immigrants and said never again in 1986. Today, we have over 11.5 million illegal immigrants again. They will keep increasing if we do not stop them now. While the illegal immigrants are pouring through the Southern Borders, merit-based, qualified, deserving legal immigrants are lined up in ques or waiting to hear on their applications for years after complying with every law and every rule at the U.S. Consulates all around the world. This must change.

@St-Sinner Your fake statistics are about as useful as drumpy.....

@AnneWimsey
It is published all over. It is not fake. Hate is a strong emotion. It makes you fact blind. The same level of hate caused conservatives to call for Obama's birth place proof when he was president. All you have to do is read if you have an open mind.

@st-sinner you agree with punishing children because of their parents actions???!!!!!

@AnneWimsey
It is not a punishment. It is bearing the consequences of parents actions. We all have benefited or born consequences of our parents actions - whether it is moving or relocating to a new place, seeking a better paying employment, divorces, affairs, education, love or committing a crime... We all are subject to our parents' actions.

In your theory, a cop should not arrest a criminal because his children would suffer, a judge should not sentence him to prison because his children would suffer. Have you seen this sick compassion in a society with a rule of law?

Just because you rephrase an issue any way you want, does not mean it becomes that. If you were president, this country would be full of illegal immigrants and start looking like Honduras.Anyone sympathizing or supporting illegal immigrants should do it on own time and time and not force a government support to commit other tax payers' and law abiding citizens money and resources. Do charity at own costs and not ask others to do it because you think it is right.

@St-Sinner your extrapolation(s) are ridiculous, and your "spread the consequences of the original sinner to the generations" is eerily, (& incredibly nasty!) Lifted right from the OT. Yuck!

@AnneWimsey
Rule of Law means NO ILLEGAL. Do you get that?

@St-Sinner do you get that applying for entry/asylum is a RIGHT, and that illegal enrty is a MISDEMEANOR, while abducting children's a serious felony?
oh, and BTW, if these desperate, motivated people are such a drain, why does ICE consistently raid WORKPLACES to find them?

@AnneWimsey
Any citizen is free to file a suit and the government and courts including the Supreme Court will decide what is legal and what right the government has to stop illegal immigration. I know that American citizens supporting illegal immigration is unpatriotic and shameful.

Everybody just the businesses will try take advantage of the circumstances when they can, just like Americans cheat on taxes and help illegal immigrants, knowing it is wrong.

I support limiting the citizenship birth (14th amendment) right to illegal immigrants and their children just like 30 countries around the world have done it lately. Illegal immigration is a menace to any nation that drains country's resources with government aid and adds to underground economy.

@St-Sinner you do know that employing illegals is a FELONY, yet do you see any owners/employers being arrested? Double standards for sure!

@AnneWimsey

The law will catch up with them. But it seems that you are not ready to recognize where the problem is but ready to blame everything else.

When prostitution is illegal, prostitutes are arrested, rarely the customers - although they should be along with the Johns.

@St-Sinner so, the enablers of prostitution get a free pass,and that makes it all okay...not the best rebuttal, methinks....

@AnneWimsey Make news laws, call your representatives. Law enforcement and courts will follow your demand.

There is no rebuttal enough if you already have made up your mind. Nothing will be enough. That is how it goes with liberals and conservatives. Reason works with moderates.

It is not very hard to understand that illegal immigration is wrong but you are trying every which way to defend it and the law enforcement that is trying to enforce the law is wrong to you from the comfort of your home.

@St-Sinner I absolutely defy you to show where I defended illegal immigration!!!!!! I am revolted by using innocent CHILDREN to gain an end, period. You didn't read a word i said, or chose to misunderstand for your nasty "visit the sins of the fathers" agenda.

@AnneWimsey
We are not using children alone. If children accompany illegal parents, they must be deported back.

There are millions of children the United States could airlift from around the world. I could give you atleast 75 million from Africa and 150 million alone from India. Should we airlift and bring them here? Would you advocate and raise funds? Or you have only selected charity?

@St-Sinner if we airlifted them without their parents' permission, & put them in cages, I would have a HUGE problem with that, and so would any decent human being...your example shows how truly nasty you are! Justify kidnapping and abuse of innocents by suggesting doing it to millions would somehow make it okay? Can you even hear yourself????

@AnneWimsey
Nation's airlifting is not like terrorist kidnapping. All paperwork will be done beforehand and parents can be all sponsored later on. But this can be an option since you really care so much about immigrant children. Worry and plan about all children, not just selectively. Let me know how you want to bring ALL suffering children here.

@St-Sinner Niiiiiice non-sequiter, asshole

@AnneWimsey You are a fake sympathizer from the comfort of your home. You do not have what it takes to solve problems. When the real issue is presented you curl up your tail and run. You will not help, you will not make a contribution. You will yell, you will make a noise. That is cowardice and also a menace and that is what we are fighting with in this illegal immigration. Thinking thoughtfully, recognizing a problem and doing what is right takes grit. You do not have it.

@St-Sinner you know nothing about me or what I do to help. Again, deflection, obfuscation, and basically changing the subject, because you have nothing to contribute except your fear & hatred of "others",sadly based on Fake statistics & Fox. Try THINKING!?! Oh, not possible, I can tell.....
