DACA Measure Shouldn't Reward the Use of Kids as Human Shields for Illegal Immigration
By Dan Cadman on May 28, 2018
The House of Representatives inches closer to moving on a discharge petition that would force a vote on one of several immigration measures that have to do with how to handle so-called "Dreamers" — illegal aliens "brought here as children, through no fault of their own", as the mantra would have it.
I've said before that this mantra is only partly true: Some of these "children", although statutory minors by American law, were in their late teens and pretty much treated as adults in the countries where they were born; they came of their own volition. And of those for whom the statement is true, more often than not they were smuggled into the United States at the behest of their illegal alien parents, despite the great risk of victimization by the gang-affiliated smugglers who transported them.
