In 2018 there are some moral absolutes and one of them is that a 5 year old child shouldn’t be thrown in a cage and left to suffer an extremely painful and life-threatening yet completely treatable disease for no reason.

I don't pretend to have much knowledge of the law but the Trump Administration has been court ordered to reunite these families. The deadline has long since past. They are in contempt of court, correct? WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE TO HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE? Explain, in simple terms

Oh, but the Trumpsters will keep trying to concoct one! “Their ‘parents’ are human traffickers.” “How could their parents take them on such a dangerous journey, it’s abuse isn’t it?”

Maybe a month and half ago, somebody I (unfortunately) know was trying to claim that the kids should be detained because they could have been indoctrinated by ISIS.

This country doesn’t care about children. There are hundreds of children who have been abused by clergy and this country just looks away. In fact we have statutes of limitations to protect predators. Not children. Not here.

Yep. Just as horrific as last time I checked. *sigh* I really hate being aware of all the things that I am aware of, but I wouldn’t trade it for ignorance.

It's even more silly at the moment because the "law and order" types who started this are in the middle of being caught signing wavers for white backpackers who broke the rules to return to be nannies for the rich

Laws are supposed to be guidelines, that’s why most functional legal systems have precedent. Anyone simple minded enough to think that the law must be followed even when it does not serve the cause of justice forth the people cannot be trusted.

Trump is amassing quite a body count filled with brown children. Add to these the kids the ones his policies in Yemen killed.

The Trump Administration has declared war on illegal immigrants. Shouldn’t that mean they’re treated as well as POWs?
