Again - I understand the difference between crossing the border illegal and arriving at a port of entry. I am not suggesting that the law not be enforced. The law says that the mere act of crossing the border illegally is a misdemeanor. The Trump administration has effected a "zero tolerance" policy and is incarcerating asylum seekers for mere misdemeanors. That means it must separate parents and children. That is obviously its intent - to deter families from crossing the border illegally. But the blowback has been tremendous - as well as it should be, because the practice is, when there is no evidence of other criminal acts, inhumane. These are, to most reasonable minds, families seeking to escape from intolerable conditions. That doesn't mean they get a free ticket. But should it mean they should be treated as common criminals, forced at the end of an arduous, courageous trek to be separated from their children?
The Trump administration will reap what it sows.
See I knew it was a waste of time to explain to you that the people entering the country illegally are
NOT ASYLUM SEEKERS. I noticed how you refuse to discuss the issue with those of us that try to
point out the very obvious point. As I stated your entire premise it wrong. You are wrong on the
facts and you logic is faulty, all you have is some kind of emotional hissy fit.
