I don't like it. I think it's inhumane and unnecessary in the vast majority of cases. If one of the immigrant parents has committed a serious crime, then, yes, segregate him or her from their kids. Otherwise, we need to keep parents and kids together if the parents' only crime was trying to enter America illegally to build a better life.
So, when citizens break the law and go to jail, the children should go with them? Many face jail over things like not being able to afford to pay their taxes and there was a threat of jailing people for not buying healthcare insurance.
People who break laws should expect consequences and that means separation from families.
Obama separated families and his administration is the one who put those children in cages. Not a peep from the left then.
Do you have a problem with Mexico not doing anything for their poor citizens? Isn't that why they leave? In fact, some might say they have good reason to leave shithole countries. Yet you guys had a meltdown when someone calls them shithole countries. If they are so great, shouldn't people be flocking to them instead of escaping them? Make your damn minds up.
