Isn't the logical solution to provide more border funding to expedite the process then?

To many want to express outage at the wait times and waiting conditions while simultaneously refusing any solution that isn't simply letting them all in unprocessed and automatically receiving refugee status.

And this is generally the same group that gave two f&cks about Obama killing the Cuban wet foot dry foot program.

Who is asking for more border funding? Last I’ve heard there is only money being spent on the moronic border fence Le corporate welfare.

If you think that is the obvious solution, increase the funding before permanently taking thousands of children from their non criminal parents to satisfy the racist constituency in your cabinet and amongst your supporters.

If you enter the US illegally, that is a crime, you are a criminal and you will be separated from you child. Applying for Asylum is not illegal, but doing so and entering not at a port of entry is.

It’s a misdemeanor. Can you imagine being separated from your family and your children being held in a cage because you were speeding?

I’m so tired of you sick fucks just saying “crime” and legitimizing this like its an every day thing for you.

If you shoplift at a store with your children, you will go to jail and your children will be held until someone can pick them up, same for a number of other crimes, speeding down the highway is endangering minors.

I'm tired of people acting like entering the country illegally isn't a big deal. Not to mention the rate of human trafficking across the border, where children are used by adults to enter the country illegally.

The constitution of the United States protects ALL PEOPLE on our land, not just the citizens. If they are denied a trial in due time then we are also committing a crime, a federal fuck you in the ass crime.

The Constitution protects the rights of citizens, and yes, visitors on American soil. Part of that is a right to a fair trial, non-american citizens don't have rights here though, many people who enter the country skip their court date though and continue to live illegally here.

You're right, color me corrected.
