[Inhumane] Second child dies in US custody this month

Walk in circles around the point. Do you honestly think no effort was made to help those kids by officials? Why would they want that on their hands?

also I guess this doesn't help the stereotype about immigrants haboring diseases.

Why was the child not taken to doctors by his parents in Mexico?

 

People did give a **** about the kids. The parents didnt

 

It's not WHAT they said, but it's WHY they said it.....at least in my humble opinion.

Yeah, that's not true. There are hundreds of people that die every year during the trip trying to illegally immigrate to the US. it's not uncommon to have 400-500 of them make it to the border and die there in any given year, there's likely hundreds more that die before they make it to the border. Any parent that would put their children in danger like that belong in prison....and if you have them in prison, you might as well put them to work to help deter others from doing the same thing to their children.

 

use your words

 

He was diagnosed with a cold. And perhaps the father worried more about getting arrested or separated from the child... who knows.

 

Use my own words to report what happened? The article provided a clear timeline to what happened... what would my words add to it?

 

Most of the people coming are running from violence - so stay and die or pack up your life in a backpack and hope you are allowed to request asylum giving at least a chance of surviving.

 

Deep down the wingnuts know they don't have the same grit or willingness to sacrifice for their kids. This fuels much of their fear and hate.

 

This is false. They've been offered work permits, food, education, healthcare, shelter in mexico while applying for Mexican asylum. They choose not to apply. They have been offered safety. Nobody to blame but these awful parents. Stop glorifying them.

 

Sure.

 

how bout instead of name calling, why dont you explain what is it he said you dont agree with?

 

keep thinking they're here for "asylum"

 

It doesn't matter why they're here. When you take custody of people you're responsible for their well being. Even prisoners of war have that right. You folks want to treat these people as if they're not even human. It's pathetic and embarrassing.

 

Don't know for sure, but he was within a few miles of the nearest official port of entry when apprehended...

 

I posted a definition that defines that poster's history. He needs help.

 

Don't know for sure, but he was within a few miles of the nearest official port of entry when apprehended...

 

You expect too much from that particular poster, it's best just ignoring him when he resorts to foolish ad hominem nonsense as an attempt to compensate for not having a valid argument. It never leads to anything positive engaging him when he's just in the mood to hurl insults.

So in your mind they were about to travel south back to the border and file asylum paperwork at the official port of entry after they had already crossed into the country illegally? That's brilliant.
