I think genuine fears of some immigrants give way to irrational Islamophobia. Europe is a very different situation than our southern border.

Reminds me of the same reaction here after 911. Bush overacted in regards to invading Iraq (Cheney et.al), but at least his public statements were even handed.

Hungary overacted led by an anti-semite

Kudos to Trump for doing the morally right thing here. Some will say he had a crises of faith. Others will say the pressure got to him. I don't care... he did the right thing.

**** is wrong with you people?
yes, the human traffickers need to make a living too.

Ironic.......

Immigration arrests at southwest border creep up but still at historic low

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ows/580846002/

The number of people caught trying to cross the southwest border with Mexico increased for a third straight month in April, but overall apprehension numbers remain at historic lows, according to data released late Thursday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
.................................................. .

Border-crossing arrests are at historic lows — but Trump is still bemoaning a 'drastic surge' in illegal immigration

More Irony.




1 In 5 Immigrant Children Detained During ‘Zero Tolerance’ Border Policy Are Under 13
Beyond specialized medical care, younger children have different food and housing needs and require more personal attention.

The Trump administration has detained 2,322 children 12 years old or younger amid its border crackdown, a Department of Health and Human Services official told Kaiser Health News on Wednesday. They represent almost 20 percent of the immigrant children currently held by the U.S. government in the wake of its latest immigrant prosecution policy.

Their welfare is being overseen by a small division of the Department of Health and Human Services — the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) — which has little experience or expertise in handling very young children.

MSM is responsible also, for their lying bias anti-Trump 24 hour coverage.

They are at an all time low because Trump is a deterrent. Just guessin' -- but it probably has something to do with his zero tolerance for criminal activity.

With all your experience as a farter (oops I meant father), why don't you volunteer for a baby sitting gig? Take the rest of your socialist-globalist, bleeding heart comrades with you.

What is ironic,is, it was not at all necessary to blow up existing immigration policy as it was EFORE TRUMP.

The long term trend began long before he blew up families.

I think the new dating nomenclature for the USA should be:

She left her husband (middle class) and 3 children behind and kidnapped the youngest for a trip across South America to break into America illegally.
Throw her out and take her coat.

Typical fact-free diversion.

I love baby sitting. You should try it. But perhaps have a qualified social worker present to re-assure the soon to be scared shitless kids.

Did I say social? Oops!

I heard Trump claim "millions" of immigrants would infest the U.S if there was no "zero-tolerance" enforcement. Considering the long term trend of diminishing immigrants on the southwest border, how is that possible?

More Hypocrisy on this Immigration Issue

One thing is for certain and we can always bank on is finding with a leftist is an overflowing abundance of Hypocrisy; it abounds within their ideology. Of course, they are so self-deceived, their deceit has blinded all of them to it.

Most conservatives know that no self-respecting socialist, globalist, environmentalist whacko would ever deny that the entire world is facing a monumental, unparalleled, earth-shattering, sky-falling OVERPOPULATION CRISIS that is putting all human life (and perhaps all life) at imminent risk of extinction. We're right there -- tottering on the brink of self-destruction.

So, Liberals, how do you justify your immigration ideology that says that all human beings have some God-given, inalienable right to invade our land and come squat on it? How do you justify, Catch and Release One and All? How do you justify the mentality that America is one big Happy Open House Party where all are welcomed to enter?

If the world is on the precipice of disaster because of a population crisis that is threatening the global environment and the earth's resources, then shouldn't one of the U.S. responses to that crisis be to immediately control our own population? Why would we want to put our own finite resources at further risk by allowing untold millions in our land? Why would we want to invite all those young kiddies in when someday they're going to grow up and have more kiddies....and those kiddies will grow up to have even more, etc.? (Or is there a secret plan for forced sterilization? Or plans for expanding the mission of Planned Parenthood?)

Explain to me, please, how More = Less. Explain to me how increasing our population doesn't put the U.S. at much greater risk on many levels. Even Slick Willy understood the risks involved! (Reckless pointed this out yesterday.)

I'll be waiting with bated breath for all the "rational" replies.

Your entire, visceral, knee-jerk reaction is fact-free.

Do something for once in your miserable, whining, cry-baby, angry, complaining life. Contribute to the solution to the earth-shattering problem you have unearthed. Go volunteer for a baby-sitting gig. What better way to celebrate this past Fodders Day.
