I hear the term "cages" bandied about by the left. It's rarely accompanied by corresponding images and leaves the listener to draw their own conclusions. The term itself implies extreme confinement with limited mobility - normally reserved for animals. It conjures up mental pictures of something like the image below:



Anybody got the specs on these border "cages"?

Also, I'm really pissed at libs when they resort to the drama card - which is about 99% of time. Knee-jerk city is what it is. Selling their souls for shock value. BTW, who came up with the term "cages" in the first place? I don't think it was I.C.E.

So, now we're going to argue about the definition of a "cage".

As big or bigger than the ones we keep our domestic criminals in.

I prefer the term “unlicensed temporary housing facility.”

They should just let them run free range.

From the recent pictures these so called cages are more accurate described as fencing used as room dividers, seemed like a practical way to segregate by age and gender. I wish news commentators would be more honest and stand up to people spreading propaganda’s

Also someone please provide a better alternative especially for UACs which is the majority of these children

A cage can be large. Lions are kept in cages. A zoo can be considered "a cage."

OP has a relevant question, imo.

Can we stack these cages horizontally and vertically along the border to make a wall?

I'd like to know because I'd like to start importing them from Mexico to sell to ICE/DHS/CPB and HHS to store illegal children in.

I'd even do a deposit bottle type thing if the Mexican govt returned the cage to me minus the child.

The same size as they were when the Obama administration used them.

What cages? All I see is four walls with a lot of holes in them. Who wouldn't prefer a cage to four solid walls with no windows?
