The people who sheltered Jews in hidden rooms, attics and basements during the holocaust broke the law. The people who smuggled 7,000 Jews out of Denmark were breaking the law. Harriet Tubman broke the law. Martin Luther King broke the law. The Tea Party broke the law.

If standing up for truth and justice and human rights is breaking the law then break the law.

Putting kids in cages is beyond reprehensible. Indefensible.

I've been watching the news channels and reading the stories and I am beyond words.

The act of separating kids from their families is unthinkable, especially after trauma.

Regardless of how they came to be, there is absolutely no just cause or defense by the U.S. in doing this.

Just following through on what Obama was doing albeit more forcefully. This was highlighted as a policy last April. why is anyone surprised or outraged only now ?

100 thousand illegal immigrant crossings in april alone, something had to give. No country can handle that. Trump is defo going the wrong way about it, even his wife has spoken against it. Building that wall doesn't seem as bad in comparison to this. Shocking video and audio going around the news sites.

Is it inhumane to keep children out of an adult detention facility while adults are being processed?

Fact is, everyone who breaks the law gets separated from their children at some point. The parents know this and still do it. Who would knowingly put their children through this?

At least he is not as bad as Obama, Obama took 5000 children off parents, put the children into foster care, and deported the parents. 5000.

If you expect children to stay with their parents, then America should spend a couple of hundred million building private suites and family living quarters for illegal immigrants to be processed in. Because asking them to be kept with the parents in the current facilities is depraved.

This is just another anti trump thread, poster in completely entitled to post as they please but there's a politics section. There's channels to follow for immigration. If you do it illegally you take a chance of things going very wrong. America is protecting America, I've said it before America only cares about America. Its not nice what's happening but I feel they're within their rights to get tough on illegal immigration

Trump even asked all states to send national guard/resources so they could process the people as quickly as possible, they could return them to their children and send them home.

Loads of states refused, the same states that are complaining about the children being kept from their parents.

Its internal politics of America. New york and LA want the backlog to jam up so they can show kids being seperated from parents for a long time.

.

And that's why trump will be voted in again. He is the only one to seem to have Americans best interests at heart. As inhumane as some of it sounds, most of it is a necessity. The media hate trump and had a chance to pounce here with this.

He's a man of his word. Obama was a president who spoke what wanted to be heard, very little action tho.

You know Mandela was a terrorist, ghandi was racist and the Burmese one is a bit dodgy too, denies ethnic cleansing in her country. Anyway I personally would be against mass illegal immigration too. I don't see any reason why that's a bad thing.

I'd say America is following the principles of Realpolitik, as Bismarck defined them in the 18th century. As one of the posts put it earlier, America is putting America first. Not making a value judgement, only stating a fact. I'd put before you the way we treat Asylum Seekers in Europe (overcrowding accommodation conditions, forced detention) and they would have rights under international treaties, are not considered law breakers!

Another thing is that we tend to react emotionally when we see news involving vulnerable individuals (which is a natural and commendable attitude). What I'm curios though, is what my fellow swingers see as a possible solution.

You should take a look at Mexico's immigration policy, it's a lot more strict than the US policy. Build a wall

Realistically it's not about immigration. It's about wanting America to be whiter. To "take back" their country. Wonder how the natives feel about their ancestors land being invaded by immigrants and being killed off en masse.

No its about immigration. Obama had strong policies too. If Irish people were getting in in the hundreds of thousands every year and disappearing they'd do the same to us. We are doing it but nowhere near those numbers.

What is happening in America is absolutely disgusting. The fact that the government can justify it is beyond comprehension for me. When Trump was elected I couldn't help wondering what agenda was behind putting that loudmouth clown in the Oval Office. I still don't know the answer to that question, but I shudder to think what the answer is when I see what they are doing to immigrant children today. Their actions are vile and inexcusable.

I disagree with this, it's not about immigration, it's about money. There is a lot of Irish money in America, that's the reason that they turn a blind eye to the illegal Irish there. The only Mexican money in America comes from drugs and contraband. If they had as many investors in big business as the Irish do then a blind eye would be turned to their illegal immigrants too.

Yes the separation of kids from parents is shocking but it's every country's right to allow who ever they want into their country. You can't have free for all immigration.

Imagine if brexit causes the UK yo become a 3rd world country and 8 million British people arrived in Ireland. It would cause an unbalance in the population more people in Ireland would actually be British and democratically they could change the future of the country.

It's not about free for all immigration! If illegal immigrants are sent back over the border, then that's fine. But separating young children from their parents and detaining them in less than humans conditions is a breach of basic human rights.

Wow. Seriously. Did you hear of this thing called a plane ? It is essentially like a large cylinder shaped mode of transportation that can fly people from one country thousands of miles away to another one. Cuts out the need for "border crossings" .

Do you honestly think all the Irish who emigrated to the states all had green cards ?

For the simple reason that the media didn't pick up on it, therefore it wasn't broadcast, and and people didn't hear about it. Whichever administration brings it in is insignificant, what matters is that these practices are inhumane, no human being deserves to be treated like this... even if their skin is the wrong color!

I asked for numbers. 50% of all illegal immigration into America is from Mexico. In 1970 counting illegal and legals there was a reported 760k Mexicans in America, today there's about 12mil. Nothing wrong with Mexicans but they're the biggest abusers of illegal immigration. 6% of illegal immigration is attributed to Europe and Canada and I doubt everyone from there is white. White people don't generally do illegal immigration today. The Irish did it a long time ago and if they were caught they were caught. I don't expect different rules so why keep saying "the Irish did it, the Irish did it"

Exactly it's like they think I'm suddenly going to say the law shouldn't apply cause some Irish person wants to break it. I don't care who breaks the law. If the law is broken by you then you must deal with the consequences. It's almost racist to think I care about which nationality breaks the law. I don't I care about the Law not being broken.

It does count. They got away with it. If and they do people get away with it fair enough but I'm saying the Americans have a right to stop it. Everyone knows what happened the natives. The Americans of today made the country and big and as powerful as it is. They made the country and they're fair to immigrants. Blacks, Whites and Asians are all non natives. Some have been there for hundreds of years though.

I'm sure they all emigrated legally with a lucky bowl of shamrock, a pot of gold and gratitude not to be fucked into a cage after emigrating for financial reasons as opposed to seeking asylum from some place they feared for their life.

Sure if you say so it must be so.

All I wanted to say all it needs is a financial crisis and we're emigrating again. Half a million, that's 11% of the overall population, that's quite substantial. Bit of compassion rather than cockiness would be appropriate.

There is no doubt that immigration is an issue for every country and every country has right to control how they grant access to their border. However there is no justification for inhumane treatment of anyone amd children especially. The trump administration has already admitted that the point of this policy is to act as a deterrent. I'm no lover of Obama, apart from the symbolism of being the first non-white president, his tenure was anonymous, great words but little action. Trump and his minions however, lack any semblance of morality, he is a snake oil salesman concerned only with his ego and hanging on to power, and history will judge him as such

I agree but if there's one highlight of this presidency, it's that we're under no illusions of what the US is.

For decades, it's been a destabilizing entity, bombing and interfering with other countries to gain greater control and to feed the military industrial complex, but usually disguised with a somewhat nice or goofy leader. Now we have a repulsive idiot in control with all his cronies, we have no choice but to face it that the USA haven't been the good guys for a long time.

Think of what the middle east would be like if the fairly progressive prime minister of Iran, Mohammad Mosaddegh, wasn't overthrown in 1953 in a coup organised by the CIA and SIS, simply because he wanted to audit the files of the Anglo-Iranian Oil company (now part of BP), and when refused, he made plans to nationalise the oil industry.

The CIA and SIS overthrew him and put in his place an utter parrot for the west. Because this fucker put the needs of the west over the needs of his own people, he in turn was overthrown by radicals.

Trump finished a speech last night and before he left the stage he started dry humping the flag and wrapped it round him.

Reminds me of a quote from James Waterman Wise in 1936

"If fascism comes to America, it will not be identified with any “shirt” movement, nor with an “insignia,” but it will probably be “wrapped up in the American flag carrying a bible and heralded as a plea for liberty and preservation of the constitution.”

And a sex site probably isn't the place to discuss children in Cage's . Because you can argue up and down about who is right or wrong but i don't think Trump will bother reading it.

The internet is source of information, just like the tv or a newspaper, would you not use information you gleen from either of those mediums in a discussion?

The thing is if you're left leaning or right leaning the Internet knows and sends you story that you want to hear and not non bias real news. Although news channels have their own agendas too. Basically for me I'm sick to death of anti trump posts when most American presidents were the same they were just more media savy but most were career politicians, trump isn't.

Facebook does, but I read multiple sources, including Fox"

You might but the vast majority of anti trump posters don't and neither do his supporters. If you lean one way then your whole life is bias whether you realise it or not. You subconsciously associate with the same thinking people and read the same outlets etc... That's just the truth. Every left leaning person will like identical Facebook pages etc.. As will the right etc. They think they're balanced but they're not. I just like to argue, I don't even know politics but I try observe behaviors.

No, the "internet" doesnt, facebook does. I read from multiple sources, including Fox and regular call out far left fake news on anti-trump FB groups. I can make my own mind up, and its very clear to me what Trump is

Regardless of what side of the divide you're on with trump you have to admit he doesnt toe the line like the rest of the sheep. He believes in what he believes in and not what hes told to believe in (most of us are brainwashed by media).

He has made more progress in north Korea than any other politician ever has.

Like it or not, this tactic of locking kids up away from their parents will work in the long run.

"Millions of Americans are descendants of illegal Irish immigrants. Literally millions."

No they are not, they were legal migrants, they all signed on and went through American customs, even during the famine the Irish people went through the right channels.

That was when they needed people, the people arriving were given nothing, not education, not money, if they were lucky they could work their ass off their whole life for a scrap of land.

America shut its borders a long time ago, Clinton sent the army to start building a wall with mexico, and every president since bush has been in agreement about a wall with mexico. Trump just doubled down on it.

There are a couple of thousand illegal Irish in America, and if they are caught they are sent back to Ireland.
