    This article does the best job I’ve read of explaining what exactly happens when the immigrant children are taken away from their kids. It’s horrifying. Read the whole thing. Parents are told their kids are going to get a bath — and then they never return. http://www.texasmonthly.com/news/whats-really-happening-asylum-seeking-families-separated/ …pic.twitter.com/xsE6qJAHY1

        "Get a bath" Heard that story before. I guess version 2.0 will also have "humane gas" or something...

        So when they try to cross officially at the bridge they’re told it’s closed, and then when they try to get across another way they’re deemed crossing illegally. We need some monitors down there at the bridge so they can’t be closed.

        The whole administration are an international embarrassment. Ever since Trump was elected it is one scandal after another. I hope the people turn out in huge numbers to vote them out a.s.a.p.

        I’m sure the Auschwitz camp guards though it was a kindness when they told kids they were going to the showers.

        Why not just call it a "shower" and get the parallels right?

        When muslims were being detained in airports we had spontaneous protests across the country. Now Latino children are being separated from parents, detained in basically prisons, and we are getting only a handful of people protesting. What a disgrace.

        You leave out the most important word. They AREN'T immigrants. They are ILLEGAL immigrants. The PARENTS caused the problem by coming here illegally.

        Hi Bill, DHam here. Put a comma between Canyon Country & California. Also, being here illegally doesn't give the US carte blanche to treat them like animals.
