DHS Chief: 2-Year Extension for ‘Dreamers,’ Young Illegals Who Entered on Their Own
CNS News ^ | 06/05/2014 | Penny Starr

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson announced on Thursday that the more than 500,000 illegal aliens who qualified for legal status through a DHS directive issued in June 2012 can now “renew” their status for two more years.

But the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, now applies not only to those who were brought to this country illegally by their also illegal parents. It states that those who crossed illegally on their own as children may also be eligible, because they are “Despite the acrimony and partisanship that now exists in Washington, almost all of us agree that a child who crossed our border illegally with a parent, or in search of a parent or a better life, was not making an adult choice to break our laws, and should be treated differently than adult law-breakers,” Johnson said in the press release announcement.

So at first it was "the kids were brought here by there parents so it was not their fault", and now it is extended to those that enter by themselves because they are not “making an adult choice to break our laws.”

I just read another article that the Border Control can not keep up with all the children pouring over the border.

It is the height of tyrannical government arrogance to assert they can willy nilly choose which laws to obey and which not. They are tyrants. It is the WORST thing George W. Bush ever did in creating the DHS.

This is part of the desperate dash to remake the country and bring it down by submerging us in a human wave of dependent Democrats by 2016. The law means nothing. The coup leaders in Washington have a new outrage every day.

How many of these children pouring in from the south will be killed, raped, or forced into sexual slavery before they make it here? How many will die from starvation, accidents or heat exhaustion?

The WH has blood on its hands from this massive miscalculatoin.

Surge in kids illegally crossing into U.S. alone strains Border Patrol

Numbers far worse than Obama administration had admitted

Chief Vitiello paints a picture of a government struggling to cope, leaving the children suffering poor conditions, agents unable to focus on major security threats and little sense that it will get better.

Known within the Homeland Security Department as Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC), their numbers have skyrocketed this year, forcing the department to siphon manpower and money from its other critical border duties.

The United Nations will soon be setting up refugee camps on our southern borders.

To the criminals running Washington, this sounds like another benefit. It is the Cloward Piven strategy to overload the system until it collapses.

Yes, I read that most of them are from Central America, trying to escape the violence from drug cartels, so we need to take them in.

We have already set up the camps:

In a morally responsible world, they would be charged with child abuse.
