The trend with this topic is "golly abducting children is bad, but po president has to enforce the laws and whatnot so whaddyagonnado womp womp build the wall." It's crap. You don't take children from mothers and put them in camps. It's been done. -- You received this message because you are

That's bollocks. The topic isn't immigration in general, it's the government abducting children and putting them in camps. That's what Grant discussed on the Blahg, that's what I'm discussing here. It's not what a civil, moral society does. It's evil. Have a nice day. -- You received this

Joe, I love your passion, but I believe there is more challenge and nuance here than you realize and it seems at best disingenuious to put all blame on Trump (whatever else a person may think of him) when our immigration laws and border have been broken since at least the Reagan era (who

I like the part where Richard acted shocked that I said Trump was abducting children, then supported the policy of abducting children. The art of doublespeak is strong with this one. Who btw is now talking on a Riv forum after renouncing Rivendells. -- You received this message because you

Of course its not a good thing to separate children from their mothers, but it is sometimes necessary to temporarily do so, at least until DHS can figure out who these people are. Its not like they have documentation proving who they are. Keep in mind we have cases of human traffickers using

I just listened to the song by Tom Russell "Who gonna build your wall" that Grant mentioned on his latest Blag post. Pretty good song, but Russell misses the point. Its not the rich Republican fat cats who want the wall built, its the average working class joe who hasn't had a raise since the
