Ariz. rushes supplies to site holding migrant kids
Washington Post ^ | June 7, 2014

Angry about the federal government sending from Texas to Arizona immigrants who are in the country illegally, Arizona officials say they are rushing federal supplies to a makeshift holding center in the southern part of the state that’s housing hundreds of migrant children and is running low on the basics.

Conditions at the holding center are so dire that federal officials have asked the state to immediately ship the medical supplies to the center in Nogales.

The Nogales holding center opened for children because the Department of Health and Human Services had nowhere to turn. “They became so overwhelmed and haven’t kept up with planning,” the official said.

Meanwhile, the mission in Benghazi was left to fend for itself.

Precisely! Imagine the outrage in the MSM if this were happening under Bush!

Why can’t the state of AZ bus them to NY City, or DC and drop them off? Sounds like a plan to me.

Makes me wonder if there isn’t something much bigger afoot here!

Assuming the so-called detention center is overwhelmed and apparently more dumping by the Feds is ongoing, then doesn’t the overwhelmed detention center made to look ever more like a refugee camp?

And then, if it is recognized as a Refugee camp, and catches the scrutiny of the UN as a Refugee camp, then how long before we find the UN types coming into the US to observe, perhaps administer the day to day operation of the “Refugee” Camp?

It appears many of these children are being let in rather than being smuggled across the desert. Why are they not being turned away at the border? Once they’re in this country it’s kinda hard to keep them from becoming our problem.

Maybe Sheriff Joe should make arrangements for the vile little illegals.

Why don’t they just escort these people back across the border? Why is this so hard to accomplish?

And what a way for the Feds to deal with their arch enemies in AZ. To intentionally dump people, create a crises that of course, creates the need for UN Intervention! I see Blue helmets and charges of crimes against humanity.

My my, these ‘shadows’ have a lot of bright flourescent light shining....and these ‘shadows’ are funded and staffed by state and federal governments!

Where is the budget oversight? Either the cost of these mass transports were planned for ie known in advance or they are being done by the seat of the pants in which case funding must be requested and approved in the present day.

And if we can afford to fly and bus them between states, we can certainly afford to repatriate them.

This is nothing more than a finger in the eye of those who oppose illegal immigration, mainly us white folk, the Governor of Arizona, Sheriff Arpaio, you know the racists that wont kowtow to Emperor Barry’s agenda.

Just another in the Cloward-Piven strategies to disassemble the United States’ power, influence, and treasure.

After reading all of the comments made in the original article and here on FR what strikes me as odd is why no one sees this situation as a deliberate act of bellicosity by the State of Mexico against the United States. No one has urged getting tough with the Mexican government or seeing this for what it is, namely a hostile economic and cultural invasion of the southern U.S. border and sovereignty by a country which is essentially an enemy of the U.S. In any other part of the world a government which allowed and encouraged its underclasses to break the border of another country and illegally obtain benefits from the defacto host country to the extent Mexico has done over the past thirty years would be faced with the real threat of military reprisals. We even have Mexican cartels controlling vast swatches of U.S. territory. Yet no one has placed blame for this where it truly belongs, at the feet of a hostile enabling government in Mexico. It’s like Congress is ignoring the two thousand pound elephant in the room. We have involved our military for years and years in imbecilic civil wars in dozens of countries which pose no threat to our existence and provide no benefit to us after we stupidly commit to them, at the expense of billions of dollars and thousands of U.S. soldier’s lives. Yet—yet— we cannot bring ourselves to defend our own overrun borders. Our elected federal officials took an oath to defend the borders and the Constitution. They are all in violation of that oath.

Why don’t the Feds let them stay in the White House? It has LOTS of unused rooms.
