Read the article Levi, it didn’t say they were the children’s parents, it said “claiming” to be the kids parents.
That is a major difference, that you glossed over because you want it to be true.
You’re emotions are being used.
Trump dragging sessions on Twitter. I'm sure he has buyer's remorse on that one.
I'm also sure that was a planned sequence of events by both major parties in an attempt to control trump

And before anyone brings up, “duh it was a roast!1!!1” you know good and well if a white comedian even mentioned a monkey’s love for bananas they’d be done.
Double standard is insane. Speaking of, as I type this I just saw an ad for Bill Maher’s show. You know, the liberal white guy who drops F bombs. It’s okay though, he apologized.
Absolutely absurd to send this man back to prison.
I didn’t watch video. Read the link provided at bottom of tweet.
Which is why we should tell these smarmy liberals drop-ins demanding outrage to GF themselves.
Yeah, I agree. Read about this the other day. Supposedly he's been out for two years, has a new job, volunteers, new girlfriend, life, etc... and they're wanting to send him back because a judge made an error and released him too soon. I'd say 21 years served is plenty, especially for drugs.
Also I don't really know what firing people for saying some racist does to combat racism. I understand it from the company's perspective. But is the person gonna be less racist now that he's unemployed?
I've read that story from this Administration as I also watched how this spin was also conducted in congressional testimony. I'm not sure you read my link in this forum of the woman who was applying for asylum then had her son taken from her. The crucial point to that story is she actually wound up being approved for asylum months after wondering where her son was and if she would ever see him again. She had committed no crime and was simply trying to survive with her son. If you are somebody who is interested in understanding the narrative I suggest you take the time and read the story of Rufina Amaya and read enough to find out how she was treated by the president of the USA. This is not a short story we are witnessing, it is a saga.
Are you saying Al Sharpton and Joy Reid discussing on MSNBC last night is not helpful?
It is amazing how many people claim they are against big government while supporting the policies of an abusive colossal government running amok. It is a testament to the people's destructive resolve who failed over and over in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan how the brutal tactics that were used in Central America decades ago only planted the seeds of chaos we are still cultivating today. It is almost like a plan because it is so effective at using government violence to make a more violent world. People such as John McCain are finally seeing how Iraq was a mistake but they have no idea how to approach the many layered problem we have played the largest role in creating south of our border. I can't convince you, try as I may, but if you read history you may find the spring from which the river of violence starts. La Mantanza!
So if any of the 6b people on this planet shows up at our border with a minor they (including family) should be allowed in...got it. Idiotic.
So now levi is selling ME, SA, Central American, and Mexican victimhood and America has to fix.
You’re insane, you grasp onto a narrative that you want to believe and run with it.
Mexico is shithole, has nothing to do with the US. Has everything to do with how their Govt operates, hell, one party was in control for 70 years. There is rich people and there is poor people, no middle class.
If you don’t have the rule of law, you have no country. Mexico is exhibit A
John McCain’s first response to literally everything is to go to war, arm rebels.
Unlikely, in fact could possibly blame the other race for termination. Most likely scenario. Should make he/she work side by side with race in question.
When I was a Drill Instructor if we found a soldier to be racist, we would make his battle buddy change and bring in the biggest soldier of the color he protested to be his new battle buddy. We found this to be an effective strategy for combating racism. We would make sure the new battle buddy understood he was to protect this soldier and show him kindness and support him regardless of how he felt about the racist opinion of him. It worked most if not all of the time, at least while they were with us.

I like the idiot. He is entertaining and makes himself look stupid daily, and don't care. That's rare in these days.
When I saw the 30 year old sloucher who sued his parents because he didn't want to move out, I thought of John. He fits the persona to a T.
Remember that time when super SJW jimmy kimmel wore black face?

You're showing on full display how little you know. But that's OK because you have the right to be as ignorant of history as you choose to be. BTW America is much more than one administration or even several failed policies. You probably think all these failed military intervention failed because the American public didn't support them. LOL
The government has instituted a new policy where they have said they want to criminally prosecute any person they apprehend between points of entry, even if they are an asylum seeker and even if they are a parent. They’ve said they want to do this to deter future families from seeking protection in the United States.
When they apprehend the parent, he or she goes over to the US Marshals, and the government has essentially created an unaccompanied minor [by separating the child]. They are treated just like any child who arrives by themselves. So it was unaccompanied minors that HHS didn’t make contact with over the phone, and now they’re putting an incredible burden on HHS by adding 700 new unaccompanied children to that population.

So the kids being separated from their families, they’re essentially being added to the population of unaccompanied minors where that 1,475 number came from?
Jennifer Podkul
Right.

Ignorant of history? You’re simply making things up.
You need to look at the big picture.
I would like to take a moment to apologize to the thread for my going off the rails last night. I took things much farther than they needed to go. Sorry.
Pretty sure apprehended people who cross the border illegally and criminally charging them isn't a new policy. You're just used to the previous administration where the law was ignored.
That's why they're calling it zero tolerance. Nothing about it is 'new', the law is just finally being enforced, no exceptions.
Bottom line, entering into the country illegally is a crime. You are not absolved of your crime just because you decide to bring your children along.
Don't like it? Then don't break U.S. federal law with your children in tow.

Was Korea a failed military policy? The North invaded the south, the US intervened, the North was driven back. The South has prospered while the North has been ruled by communists.
Vietnam was a failed war, that was handled poorly.
Is Iraq a failed policy? Are the people of that nation in better shape than prior?
Afghanistan is still ongoing, but it was a retaliation to the Taliban harboring al qaeda.
I'm sorry but you are the one who is not looking for the big picture. You have decided you don't want to bother yourself with understanding why what is happening. Listen to what these people say they are seeking asylum from. When you put aside all your preconceived notions of who these people are and why these people are here the next question is well how did this all come to be. It is ignorant and stupid to think policy doesn't matter or have long term consequences, or that these people are a homogenous group of criminals. Stupid is thinking simple solutions will fix multi-layered long time problems that ultimately arose from policy that was/ is mostly aimed at helping corporations and megalomaniacs.
I don’t have any preconceived notions of these people. What policies are you speaking of, you’re jumping from Wars to Central America and aren’t making any points whatsoever.
You don’t get to seek asylum simply because the Country your from is a dump and crime riddled, that isn’t how it works.
You’re blaming our nation for the corruption that’s prevalent in Central American nations. It isn’t our fault, it’s a cultural problem. I don’t know why they stand for it.
What I do know is that we have a border and border laws. Entering the country illegally is a crime.
You’re still grasping onto the 700 kids. “Claimed” is the key word you’re just flossing over.
Of course it was, that is if you think our founding fathers or George Washington knew anything they talked about and warned us of. Like Vietnam we certainly don't celebrate our "victory" in Korea and to suggest we do is ludicrous. You must be of the mind that unending continuous war is a victory. The fact that you cannot think past this "war is good mentality" is exactly why there is some much discord in the world today, people mostly white men in this country cannot come to terms that war has very seldom resulted in a net benefit for the human race since WWII. But I digress because I know talking to people like you is a waste of time, you have already solved all the worlds problems in your head without knowing history no less.
He also never had a disciplinary infraction in 20 plus years in prison. While in prison,took college and correspondence courses, taught a GED program for other inmates, organized bible studies, became a certified law clerk to help other inmates understand the judicial system...
The lack of common sense in the judicial system, and throughtout all of gov’t quite frankly is appalling.
I didn’t say we celebrated victory, you stated policy as if we just decided to attack the North. The North invaded the South, you agree with that, right?
The UN decided to repulse that blatant aggression. The US led the effort and in fact did just that.
General MacArthur then decided he was going Drive all the way to the Yalu river. The Chinese got involved, and we retreated to the original 38th parallel.
The overall goal was achieved, the North was driven from the South. Because if that the South is a prosperous country. The North is a hermit kingdom.
I don’t have a love of war, I hate it. It should be the last recourse, but if that path is chosen you go to war. You don’t pussy foot trying to win hearts and minds, that results in more dead American youth, and failed attempts, see Vietnam, Iraq lasted much longer than necessary and Afghanistan is still ongoing.
You need to understand how awful WWII was, and those that fought never wanted to see that again. They took steps, right or wrong to prevent it, and they succeeded in that effort. Unfortunately people like you are too GD ignorant to see it.
You’d rather just blame ol whitey.
