This is a huge part of the problem with the Trump administration. They leap first without anything thought. It's like "this sounds like a good idea" but they clearly don't think it through. This problem with children and immigration is the perfect example. Do you really mean to tell me that someone somewhere along the line didn't say out loud "Hmmm, maybe taking kids away from people who commit a misdemeanor and placing said children in detention centers isn't a good idea".
Didn't someone say say "Gee, the image of a four year old boy with a government issued silver blanket behind a chain link fence is going to be a bad visual".
No one thought about this.
Then when they decided to reverse the policy they panicked and issued a executive order too quickly that only confused people and made things WORSE.
WTF? These are all lawsuits waiting to happen.
You people need to think about this. This is a misdemeanor crime. Imagine you are driving down the road and get pulled over for speeding, they find a joint in your car, and suddenly you are arrested and your kid is transported a thousand miles away and you have no idea where they are. If that isn't bad enough, when they are returned back to you they are returned with lice.
NO ONE wants open borders. But we need to be humane here. Arrest them, document the arrest, and then quickly send them home. The next time they are caught in the country instant one year in prison. If they have kids, their kids get deported back to their home country right there and then. If they get caught at third time entering the US illegally it's ten years in prison.
The system they put in place is worthless. So they come to the country illegally and we detain them and feed them and house them? How does that deter people? It's costing us a lot of money to do this.
