Sessions: Families that enter the US illegally will be broken up
First off... "Right now we are dealing with a massive influx of illegal aliens across our Southwest border". This administration needs their lies fixed. Didn't Donald say that illegal immigration was at its lowest record since over 20 years or so? Hmmm. It's almost surreal how they contradict themselves all to just get a rise out of their swamp backwater supporters.
Secondly, the parable of the Criminal Immigrant is largely a myth.
But back to the topic at hand. I get it, while being an undocumented alien is not a crime, it’s a civil infraction, and it only becom a crime if they violate the deportation order, which they sign, prior to their first deportation, I do get it, the law states that illegal immigrants should be deported and that those without a visa aren't to be allowed into the United States. So Trump's crackdown is really just what he believes him following the law, following the logic that if you're in the US and you don't want your family to be separated because they're outside the US, then easy: leave the US and go where your family are.
But... separating families? How does that sound coming from the party of family values? Or those only count when they're of Real Amurkins? Your thoughts?
