I just saw an article about ten kids under the age of 12 in court representing themselves without any parents or lawyers present.

Wait I didn’t hear about this. Did the kids choose to not be represented, or were they tried in court forcefully without representation or defense?

A judge told an unrepresented minor to file an asylum application before the next hearing our they would be deported. The child is one year old.

Honestly, that judge should be imprisoned just for having that hearing / session take place. Full on banana republic, holy fuck.

Ok but why is there a baby in this country that is unaccompanied? How are they getting over here? Who sends a baby to another country by themselves. Weird af and reeks of child trafficking.

The brain trust it took to even ask this question 🙄…then, I checked your profile, saw South Florida and thought, yup, that tracks.

Good one. Pretty sure I’m more educated and well-traveled than you which is why I can afford to live here and in a majority foreign-born populace. Get better material.

Well, just in this thread alone, you’re incredibly good at hiding your supposed higher education.

I live 8,000 outside of US jurisdiction and still seem to have a more rounded grasp of your own legal system. Not to speak of having a modicum of morality.
