      BREAKING: I am told by attorneys and activists that they expect the government to announce on Thursday that they have deported over 100 parents of separated children who've been shipped off to 17 different states. And that they have no plan or idea on how to find or unify them.

      This actually happened. Our government forced a 1 year baby to attend immigration court in Phoenix...ALONE. The child cried hysterically. The judge openly admitted it was an embarrassment and that the child clearly had no idea what was going on.https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/year-old-baby-appears-in-immigration-court_us_5b4290e3e4b07b827cc1e76c?ncid=engmodushpmg00000004 …

          I don't understand how a JUDGE lets this happen at all. Why is the judge even participating in the proceeding?

          Fair enough. But, what happens to that child if the judge refuses to participate? In that case wouldn’t they just go before a different judge? (Not being combative, I genuinely don’t know the answer to this question.) I’m glad he brought awareness to the travesty before him.

          True, but at some point people must stand up and refuse to participate in a corrupt and evil system.

          Oh, absolutely, I couldn’t agree more. We need more people to rise up against injustice & corruption. This situation, especially, demands civil unrest. My question was genuine, not argumentative, so I hope it wasn’t taken that way. I want these babies returned to their parents

          And to think... this is STILL all because some people were pissed about a black president.

          It's also very important to remember that this was merely @BarackObama responding - brilliantly - to @realDonaldTrump and his small-minded, hate-fueled #birther movement.

          1. Recently my wife put our 1 year old in her car seat, kissed her, said bye, shut the door & walked away. My daughter burst into tears & sobbed. She hadn’t noticed I’d just got into the drivers seat. She thought she’d been abandoned. When she saw me she stopped crying & smiled.

          2. To knowingly separate kids of this age from their parents is nothing short of child abuse. They have absolutely no understanding of what’s going on apart from their feelings of abandonment. It’s hideous.

          We are focusing on the judge when I am wondering about the US Attorney who was sitting at the other table, representing the People of this Nation. Why didn't any of them refuse to go forward with the proceedings? Where are their morals?

          That is the scariest part by far....by far. It means we are still so very vulnerable and malleable as a species we could easily slide down the slope into great and deadly evil on a very large scale again. The fact that any participated is shocking and immoral, and they did it.
