The Border Crisis

If people are so worried about pushing this burden on border areas then how about asking individual families, from all over the country, to adopt these refugees.

I bet all those kids will be with a family before the end of the week.

If no one wants to adopt them then no one can complain when they get sent back. But I bet more than enough families volunteer.

There is no way that can happen within a week, simply because of the legalities of it.

1. They HAVE to make sure that their parents ARE NOT in the US, and if they are, they have to sign these children over to adoption. YOU CANNOT, just adopt children out without their parents ok.

2. Fostering these children would be a better more legal way to go at this point....and a call for that has already gone out.
 
Beat it! Country’s full!

Okay folks, you heard the lady, back into the hole. We'll try Canada.
 
We have veterans living on the street, but being the world's orphanage is a pressing concern??

Anything to distract from the more pressing concerns that our government may or may not be equipped to address.
 
Again, this is not an Illegal Immigration issue. These are political refugees and this is a humanitarian crisis. These kids aren't sneaking in and inserting themselves into our workforce. They are seeking out and turning themselves in to border guards.

As refugees, per GW, the law states that they get a hearing.

It's sad that the country who champions freedom, and is far more stable (comparatively) to provide assistance to these innocents, now want's to ignore our own laws and toss them back to the wolves.
 

Apples and Oranges, AND....totally different process. They had a process, at the moment, the processing today of all of these people is close to non-existent.
 
Didn't the refugees turn themselves in to border patrol without trying to cross illegally?

Why are they wasting tax dollars to send the military to the border?

I don't see them as refugees.

They cross illegally, AND THEN turn themselves in. Our border patrol are set almost 50 miles off of the actual border. That is in compliance with what the Federal government has mandated. Gov. Perry told the President that fact, the President did not know that fact. So they are actually over the border before they ever see their first patrol. The Border Patrol has to patrol that far off simply because there are just not enough of them...so the National Guard will be able to move forward all the way to the border. Right now, there is NO ONE there because our Border Patrol are processing people at the moment and right now there are as many DPS as can be spared doing the job of the Border Patrol.

Many have had a paper that is written in their language, and English all of the questions that the Border Patrol will ask and the answers they need to give in order to be able to stay.

I've seen some of the notes they are using, its pretty crazy.

What's the government going to do about the incoming kids' medical records, or lack thereof?

This is all assumption on my part....but as a teacher I KNOW, that they will not be able to be enrolled in school etc....without proper shot records, etc.

So, I am thinking that those that will stay in the US, and are in temporary shelters will have doctors come in (I know that some are already doing this) and they will get a proper examination, shots, etc in order to enroll in school. Those that have family here already and have been reunited with that family, will have to do the same, either through a districts health fair, or on their own before enrolling in school.

Now, you will have those that end up with family and do not enroll in school, do not make their court case, which we are finding that a good 80% are not making it to see the judge, and the judge is simply rescheduling at this time. That percentage will probably remain about the same. THOSE CHILDREN will be the ones that fall through the cracks. But, any that plan on going to school here, will have to have the proper medical paperwork and school nurses are extremely good about making sure, at least in Texas...I can't speak for other states.

Many are also being examined in the processing centers, but I think that has not gone so well because of the sheer numbers.
 
I still find it absurd that the self-proclaimed greatest, and most powerful country in the world can't handle 50,000 kids, when it expects countries in the Middle East to handle millions.

I am disgusted with the Republicans, who dare to call themselves Christians who are using these poor kids as a political pawns.

I only wish there was a hell for them to burn in.

Anyone who wants to send these kids back should go to Central America on a freight train to understand the hell they come from.

Shame on Obama for not doing more here. And now he is actually trying to alter the law that would let these kids have a proper hearing.
 
The guest on tonight's Daily Show said it far better than I ever could. Both parties should be ashamed with how they are acting. I'll post a link later today from the interview when it goes up if someone doesn't beat me to it before I wake up. These children are refugees escaping horrific narco-cartels and deplorable circumstances and deserve their day in court to be heard as per US law grants them.
 
Those that are already here, there is not much that can be done at this point, but we cannot allow something like this to happen again.
 
The thing no one seems to be talking about, is actually doing something about the problem.

Central America needs an intervention.
 
KKK Issues Call to "Shoot to Kill" Immigrants, Leave Corpses on Border

gp6epcx4guszig4oyttl.png


In a video that would be funny if it didn't revolve around violent bigots, representatives of the Ku Klux Klan confirmed the organization's call to shoot border-crossing immigrants from Central America to advance its goal of a "white homeland" in the United States.

In the remarkable new video from Al Jazeera America, reporter Robert Ray rendezvoused with two Klansmen in a compact Chevy and followed them from a North Carolina town to a rural wood, where they articulated the Klan's murderous objectives.

The Klansmen purport to represent the "Loyal White Knights" of North Carolina, described by Ray as "the largest active KKK operation in America"—although the talkative guy in the silly white hood—identified by Al-Jazeera as "Robert Jones," a grand dragon—has a shoulder flash identifying him as a Virginia-based Klansman, along with thong sandals and a gut that protrudes through his cassock and over a purple rope-belt.

"These people are criminals to begin with when they cross our country," the white knight says of the mostly-underage immigrants currently collecting at the U.S.-Mexico border:

"They're gonna continue to break the law when they're here. they're bringing with 'em the third-world diseases...

If we can't turn them back, I think if we pop a couple of 'em off and leave the corpses laying on the border, maybe they'll see that we're serious about stopping immigration."


The objective of these bubbas, as always, is "A white homeland," Jones says. "I believe we will have it here eventually one day," he adds, thong sandals and all.

These racist ***holes disgust me
 
Yep....I have an ex- grand dragon that lives in my school district. He is definitely all of the four letter, five letter, etc names we can come up with...
 
An honest racist. Kind of refreshing.

The stuff about disease – think Drudge started that – is a classic. They said that about the Irish and the Italians.
 
Yes, the disease line has been over done, however they are finding a few chicken pox cases here in Texas, a couple of TB, but not much more than that....quite a bit of lice more than anything else, etc, which heck you will find that in every elementary school in the US.
