    POWERFUL cover from @Time. Welcome to America. Sadly, torturing children by snatching them from their parents - and then sending them off with strangers thousands of miles away is how Donald Trump feels powerful.pic.twitter.com/DZ68J1a666

        Trump just signed an executive order to keep this from happening. Also, some of this went on under Obama and previous Presidents.

        The only defense they have against this is what about Obama! Yeah what about Obama? Who the hell cares what happened in the past it's exactly that in the past and we didn't learn from our mistakes because this administration is doing the same thing except on a grander scale.

        Also the executive order doesnt guarantee the return of the already taken kids to their parents

        You're absolutely correct there it pretty much does nothing except try and keep the families together indefinitely since the POLICY of zero tolerance continues to be the status quo which is why we are here in the first place.

        Are you seriously saying that I'm not INCLUSIVE ENOUGH in an effort to argue against inclusivity? By the way, #peopleofcolor means EVERYONE not white. Stop acting foolish when people are trying to make a difference for the better. #IndigenousPeoplesDay #IndigenousHistoryMonth

        What I'm saying is let's not blindly celebrate immigration w/out remembering the negative consequences. Immigration has resulted in the shift from self-governing to democracy which tearing apart our union. Parents using children is wrong.

        Immigration is a never ending adjustment to where people live all over the world. It's migration of animals. It's natural and has never stopped. Never will stop. Why do we need to think up negative impacts as opposed to agreements on humane ways to control it so its safe & fair?

        We do have ways that are safe and fair. Ppl think they are exempt somehow from following them. There was an Albanian women w/deportation orders 12yrs ago. She appealed it but decided to make kids meanwhile. She finally got deported but thought it was cruel to be separated.

        Obama didn't have a no tolerance policy. Nor did his administration purposely remove children from parents without a way of reuniting them. I am not condoning what Obama may or may not have done, but you have to admit, honestly, what this admins did was wrong.
