    They are the same, in both situations you have people detained for breaking the law, in one you think that the family should stay together, in another you are fine with the family being split up.

    I personally have known of an entire family of a mother, father, 3 brothers, and a sister that went to jail at the same time.....but they were American citizens so no one cried for them when they ended up being separated in different facilities to do their time.

    Again, there's nothing at all "cruel" about separating illegal immigrants while their deportation is being finalized. Nothing at all.

    Keep on wallowing in your ignorance. It doesn't change the facts, nor does it change the cruelty of locking children in cages. I would bet the family you mentioned didn't have their children locked in cages.

    Speaking of that family, I've said before that it can happen, but it almost never does.

    You're the one trying to ignore facts here kiddo.

    That family had their children locked behind bars....does it really make that much of a difference if they are in a brick cell with bars or in a chain link cell? A cell is a cell.

    The fact that American families can be separated when they are caught all breaking the law should make you realize that illegal immigrant families being separated when they are caught all breaking the law isn't "cruel" or out of the ordinary.....but then again, you are just trying to push this in a cheap effort to get political points because you are worried about the midterms so it's no big deal.

    I don't know the specific case you're talking about the family, so I can't really comment on it. What I do know it isn't the norm for American families to all be arrested. So the situation, in general, is vastly different than the situation at the border.

    Evangelical leader Franklin Graham: "It's disgraceful, and it's terrible to see families ripped apart and I don't support that one bit,” he told the
    Christian Broadcasting Network.

    The norm is for people caught breaking the law to be arrested. In the instance of an entire family running a drug operation, they are all breaking the law. In the instance of a family that are all illegal immigrants, they are all breaking the law.

    In both instances, the entire families will be detained and separated pending trial/deportation and there's nothing wrong with it. At all.

    You could make the crime just about anything and the answer is the same.....yet you think it should be handled differently when it is illegal immigrants because.....?

    Literally nothing that I said was wrong....and you probably know that or you'd have pointed out what you were talking about specifically.

    I was hoping that by keeping the answer very short no one could lose the point.

    That quote reads like a sentence that would proceed a "But...", so I clicked the link. But... "I blame politicians for the last 20, 30 years that have allowed this to escalate to the point where it is today." He still won't blame Sessions or Trump for this atrocity. He's not wrong about the malpractice our national politicians have committed the last few decades. But, he commits malpractice by not including the current Administration's role in this.

    wow... while it most likely won't actually result in anything, it is amazing that the Church is bringing charges against sessions...

    speaks volumes. That's almost every religion that has spoken out. Where are you Scientologists? And Satanists? Step up!

    The Stephen Miller of the D&D. Probably all stems from being rejected by a girl or not being allowed at the cool kids table in the 8th grade. Hate in your heart will turn facts into small roadblocks to drive over on your quest to finally win something in life. In this case that quest is owning libs on the internet!!

    Just really makes one want to hug our kids and wife and be thankful you get to live a normal life of happiness and that you try to make good decisions in life. There’s a lot of people like Boobie now in this country that don’t know how good they have it and live in a cesspool of grievance and feel like they need to bring everyone else down to their level. Pretty sad and still the only poster where the ignore feature has been fully justified.
