    I think that’s true. There is no question the Trump policy is harsher because under “zero tolerance” the parent is being charged with the crime of crossing illegal which automatically results in separation because alleged “criminals” are always separated from children until their case is adjudicated. This is where the problem lies. In the end though child separation was deemed ok under certain circumstances...it wasn’t evil but it was necessary. It still isn’t evil now...it is just a question as to whether it is necessary. 


    If it's unnecessary then it's cruel.  There were ways to enforce "zero tolerance" without forcing the separations.  Namely, they could have appointed substantially more judges or magistrates so that they could process the cases more timely without violating the Flores consent.  If they could do that, then they could have kept the families together.  Either they didn't think through that (stupid) or they didn't care (cruel).

    I think it’s a combination. Necessary, cruel, coupled with standard bureaucratic stupidity. In other words...government at it’s finest.

    I pointed out somewhere else that of the 3 biggest policy blunders of this administration, Miller has led two of them; travel ban and this.  He's a neophyte and an ideologue.  That's not a good combination.  The third was the Obamacare bungle, but that was all on Trump since it wasn't really a "policy".  Miller might be a worse human being than Trump.

    I’m pro choice but listening to militant abortion rights supporters cry over kids and throw around the word “evil” is far more laughable. 
    How many “militant abortion rights” activists have killed how many “pro-life” activists, Professor? Talk about laughable.

    Holding out hope? I am neither hoping or not hoping. As I have said let the evidence come forward and let the chips fall where they may. So far it seems pretty clear where the chips are leaning. We’ll have the origin report on Crossfire Hurricane soon enough.

    It’s done everyday throughout both of our countries. A parent commits a crime and a child goes into the system. Nobody likes it but it doesn’t keep that parent out of jail.

    People rarely go to jail for misdemeanors.  This is a bad analogy. 

    Are you arguing that you would prefer the child gets separated and stays in the US while the parent is deported vs keeping them together and deporting together?

    Really? That was the shooter’s motive? And the pro-choice side egged him on and congratulated him after? You making stuff up again, Professor? To fit your alt-right narrative about those “evil” liberals?

    It depends. If truly refugees crossing at legal port of entry then keep together and allow entry provided refugee status verified. If truly refugees crossing at illegal port of entry then short term separate and allow in together once parental/refugee status verified. If parental status can’t be verified than hold child separate until it can be determined who nearest relative is. Return child to that relative. If not refugees but simply entering illegally deport both together once parental status is verified.

    There needs to be incentive for someone claiming refugee status to come through a legal port of entry and/or embassy. It is choosing an illegal port that may result in separation.

    No kidding. Any pro-lifer (or anti-abortion) person that is ok at all with violence including murder against a doctor or anyone involved in performing or supporting abortion is a big time hypocrite and a felon.

    Ill stop now cause like I said I don’t want to derail thread into abortion. But your death penalty argument is not correct.

    Here's a larger question:
    After all this time, are people on BS' side of the fence just ignoring the fact that people are trying to come through the legal port of entries and that there's just huge bottlenecks so they have no other choice but to turn themselves in at other spots? Or are they really this uninformed?

    I'm going with uninformed.

    After all this time, are people on BS' side of the fence just ignoring the fact that people are trying to come through the legal port of entries and that there's just huge bottlenecks so they have no other choice but to turn themselves in at other spots? Or are they really this uninformed?

    I'm going with uninformed.
    Are people on the juggler’s “side” suggesting this is all just one big bottleneck misunderstanding? Or are they really this niave?

    I’m going with...

    Really? That was the shooter’s motive? And the pro-choice side egged him on and congratulated him after? You making stuff up again, Professor? To fit your alt-right narrative about those “evil” liberals?
                                                                                                                     
     
    Who am I to guess the motive of a nut job progressive’s need to murder a bunch of conservatives during the days of feminist women’s marches.

    It depends. If truly refugees crossing at legal port of entry then keep together and allow entry provided refugee status verified. If truly refugees crossing at illegal port of entry then short term separate and allow in together once parental/refugee status verified. If parental status can’t be verified than hold child separate until it can be determined who nearest relative is. Return child to that relative. If not refugees but simply entering illegally deport both together once parental status is verified.

    There needs to be incentive for someone claiming refugee status to come through a legal port of entry and/or embassy. It is choosing an illegal port that may result in separation.
    Forget legal vs illegal port of entry.  Let's assume they will be deported.  Should the family stay together during the process or be separated?  Notice I said "family", not alleged family or anything like that.

    The anti-choice individuals who murdered abortion providers were pretty clear on their motives; no guess work required. If your stance is "who am I to guess?", then why did you guess earlier when you suggested it?

    Their motives are certainly readily apparent.

    Under your scenerio where they are in fact a family that will be deported then of course deport them together.

    Well we had a militant progressive shoot up a bunch of conservatives. We can only guess which conservative issue is the one he is most passionate about. I have a feeling it is a combination of issues that certainly include the fact they are pro-life. Are you suggesting Scalise being pro-life is the one issue that militant nut bag is ok with?

    Nope. You see...those militant anti-choice crazies think those having and/or providing abortion are “evil”. When people feel that way some end up thinking that stopping that “evil” through violence is good. I explained how I take issue with using that terminology of “evil”. I tried to outline how people are wrong to use it in reference to Trump and immigration policy as it will only lead you down the same path as the militant anti-choice. “Evil”, “Vile Human Beings”, “Nazis”. You are heading down a path that can only lead to bad outcomes. Some that agree with you...like Mr. Baseball shooter...will take matters into their own hands. It will not help your cause.

    I am suggesting two things. One, that you couldn’t come up with any other counter to Halifax’s question so you picked one that is irrelevant, because in your example the shooter hadn’t stated any motive, and two, that it makes no sense to say “I really couldn’t guess”, while you are guessing.

    At risk of turning this into another abortion debate, I’ll never understand pro-abortion people bring up deaths when arguing FOR abortion. 
    To help  you better understand. ......no one is pro-abortion.
    But many people on here, around the country and the world, including the members of PearlJam, are pro-choice.

    I’ve always found it interesting why people that are ok with abortions happening are always so quick to point out that they are not pro-abortion.  Nonsense.
