Sad, sickening, and unacceptable. A lesson in American injustice that these unfortunate migrant kids will never forget.

They don’t even bother to record what people were ostensibly charged with?

The released figures don’t include that information, but I wouldn’t take that as implying the record itself doesn’t exist. I interpret the omission of a specific breakdown to mean the vast majority are being charged with a violation of 8 USC 1325, “Improper entry by alien”. I suspect if there were a significant fraction of people being held for other “crimes”, that stat would be trumpeted as proof that these are “dangerous people” and clearly “this is the right policy”, etc. But, hey, I’m not a lawyer, so what do I know?

Many are being held, and their children kidnapped, for the “crime” of “seeking asylum,” which, as we are all aware, is not a crime.

Keep in mind this is the badministration that claimed “only” 43 people died in Puerto Rico. Actual number of separations is probably orders of magnitude higher.

I just long for the day when Ivantoo, Beavis and Butthead are separated from their (crime) family for an extended stay at Club Fed…

I hope no one at Dept. of Homeland Security or Sessions reads this, it may give them ideas on how to treat unaccompanied minors.

The worst is the dirty rotten bastards remove the kids’ sim cards from their phones.

Someone MUST get a camera into these ‘detention centers.’ MUST. NOW. America needs to see what’s happening.

I’m really worried how in heck they are keeping track of kids and parents? Are they tattooing them, micro chipping, or what? No really, this is something that ever since our response to Maria and Puerto Rico I worry about.

Christianist filth from a man whose goal is to be the Ayatollah of the US.

Legal volunteers needed to assist these people. But need to be able to speak Spanish or have an interpreter. I want to volunteer but don’t speak Spanish. Anyone interested who speaks Spanish who would like to volunteer with me, please advise.
