A sad story indeed. No question that parents need to consider what might happen to their children if they make the journey to America rather than go through regular immigration channels.

In other news, The Pope also endorses same sex unions. Pardon me if I have zero respect for what the Pope thinks.

And the number of kids who arrive WITHOUT their parents. We can't just dump all these people in the country. There's a process.

Of course that IS a possibility. But then they have voluntarily put their children in the hands of the American government and have no legal standing IMO.

In the end, if you want to fix illegal immigration then you have to fix the places these people are fleeing from.
Any ideas?

Yes, the citizens need to make a stand. The cost is paid with spilled blood. We did it. Others can do it.

What happens if those making a stand are starving, homeless and have no weapons?
This takes us back into the tenuous business of interfering in other people's countries and wars.
