dax regardless of your views your style ITT is pretty terrible and unproductive. (Even for the pit.)
cRusty, there were numerous references to Concentration camps just in the last few days by the left, and left leaning media. That's pretty disgusting (but typical). .
My "style" is simply to point out that LibBot nation by and large didn't give two shits about how people were treated at the border until now, and of course will not acknowledge the idiocy of the previous administration in helping to create this mess. The picture of the girl holding the sign about Obama inviting them in, and then kicking them out tells you all you need to know how how eff'd up their policies were.
Now you've got parents sending kids out on their own, or people using kids as pawns to get asylum because of all the mixed messages.

They absolutely are concentration camps, just as the British used them in the Boer War or the US used against Native Americans or later against Japanese Americans during internment or, yes, the concentration camps that Nazi Germany used. Just because there are uncomfortable parallels to more evil things that have happened does not mean that the term is not apt. Taking people's rosaries and wedding rings or saying that the children "are going to take a bath" and then never being taken away from their parents has some pretty terrible historical resonance even if people aren't being exterminated.
and FTR Hillary can eff off.
So what do you do with the 80% of the kids who came to the border without adult supervision or with people who are not their parents (and in many cases are bad people).
In most cases they are held until they can figure out where to put them.
But again, I am appreciating that LibBots are now suddenly so very concerned with what happens to kids at the border, when the exact same types of things were happening under prior administrations, and we never heard a word about it, and very little media coverage.
