If you feel so sorry for these kids (and adults too)....if it's all about being Christian....if it's all about doing the right thing....if it's all about humanitarianism...

Why the hell aren't you up in arms demanding your govt send planes to Guatemala and Honduras and go get these crumbsnatchers? Why allow them to travel through Mexico under such dangerous conditions?
Why aren't you up in arms over the 40 or so that were just sent back? I realize that that was likely a symbolic move to get some press, but why aren't you crying for these poor beings?

The quote has absolutely NOTHING to do with this current event along the border. But keep on using it like the rest of the sheep, you numbskull. Pull at those heart strings!

That was way back when there was no welfare state and entitlements just begging to abused and used forever.

It's hilarious how republicans are thinking this will turn out fine and they can get a new fancy voting bloc.

I'm sure they are good kids. Just looking for some opportunity in life their home country doesn't provide them.

Interesting how quickly we forget this nation was built by illegal immigration.

platitudes on a statue are not now, nor have they ever been, national policy.


That is such a childish response.

Oooh...look what the patina'd copper staute says....throw open the doors!

My wife and I would adopt any of the younger ones tomorrow, but our government has made it basically impossible to do so and their government is so corrupt you can't get anywhere with them.

Why do you want them gone so badly? isn't it enough for you to be happy they've had to endure hardships to get here?

True enough, we even have a slur regarding it (wop). But as has been stated, the eternal welfare state that exists now was not in place then.

Yes, because today is exactly the same as it was back then.....

No one wants to see anyone sent back to their home country to suffer. However, because of the way our society is structured, there has to be a process to allow people into the country or else the weight of the burden on tax payers will crush them.

People don't hate the kids or their parents, but we understand that just allowing EVERYONE to free roam across the border without accountability will eventually crush this nation as it constructed now.

Looking at things logically, completely eliminates arguments based solely on tugging heart strings. Not sure why people don't debunk emotionally motivated arguments more often.

FIFY.


Get rid or greatly reduce welfare and entitlements and I fully support open borders. If there are jobs, they'll come here to fill them. If there aren't, they won't come.

Right now we can't take care of or employ our own citizens....we damn sure can't employ or subsidize millions more.

He won't understand logic.

That and he won't be the one carrying the financial burden for them either.

People on the left are ok with spending other people's money freely, so his opinion on it shocks me very little.
