Editorial: The international crisis of unaccompanied migrant children at U.S. border
Sacramento Bee ^ | June 8, 2014 | Editorial

Posted on 06/08/2014 9:49:06 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Thousands of children and babies, alone or with their mothers, are swarming into the U.S. along Texas’ Rio Grande Valley. Many of them are coming from Central America, so many the U.S. doesn’t know what to do with them all.

Where are the international aid groups, such as World Vision and Amnesty International? Where is the United Nations? Where are Angelina Jolie and other celebrities who advocate for endangered children worldwide?

Sadly, it’s hard for many of the champions of children to recognize a humanitarian crisis when it happens this close to home.

The Arizona Daily Star reported Saturday that Jimena Diaz, consul general of Guatemala in Phoenix, visited the center Friday and said there were about 250 children from Guatemala, with the rest coming from El Salvador and Honduras.

Diaz told the newspaper that the children are being kept in separate groups, divided by age and gender. Most of them are between 15 and 17, Diaz said, with a few much younger than that. Teenage mothers with their children are also being detained separately, he said.

It is the policy of many Latin American countries to encourage their poor, illiterate, criminal, and unhealthy citizens to illegally “migrate” to the US. Our anchor baby program lures Asian and other groups to “birthing vacations” in the US.

There is no question we have created an attractive nuisance. The question is what will be done about it. The answer - nothing. The great experiment in individual liberty is finished.

Sending them back to where they came from originally-bypassing Mexico-is probably cheaper and no one can accuse la migra of abusing minors...

If it is true that they came to Mexico from someplace south of there, then we will be doing Mexico a favor-one we can remind them of when we need to.

since mexco allows these children to cross their whole country from parts south, for every one that comes across OUR border, send ten mexkins home, maybe that will entice them to monitor their own southern border...

well, i can dream, can't i???

“In fy 2013 the Border Patrol had detained approx 2k unaccompanied juveniles. This year the Border Patrol has reached 60k.”

It’s impossible to believe that Obama’s people aren’t involved in this. Classic Cloward/Piven strategy to bring the system down by overwhelming it. The timing is perfect while the amnesty issue is being shoved at Congress, and Obama’s ICE and Border Patrol refuse to enforce our immigration laws. Asymetric warfare and a complicit federal government.

Obama did what he could last week…

a crisis that United States’ flawed immigration policy doesn’t have the power to fix alone, even if Congress miraculously found the will to vote on a reform plan that addresses the issues of today

Well, we see where the media is going to take this one.

ICE and the Border Patrol aren’t refusing to enforce the law. It is De Facto illegal for them to do so. Proper enforcement of immigration law gets you suspended, fired or prosecuted.

MESSAGE TO SEN INHOFE---Sen Inhofe should notify Army officials that these are minor children......Child Protective Services should detain them under laws covering “suspected runaways”.

Sen Inhofe, the US military, and the state, should officially contact the governments involved specifying that they are required to seek out the parents of these Mexican, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemalan children so that they can be returned to them via their respective juvenile justice systems.

Sen Inhofe might emphasize that the countries involved might not want to be party to child abandonement, as the world looks on.

AS yefragetuwrabrumuy INSIGHTFULLY POSTED By US law, these separated children are legally chattels of their parents; the state cannot release minors until there are responsible adults to care for them.

=================================================

MEMO TO SEN INHOFE: If necessary , Sen Inhofe should expose the corruption in American CPS agencies. One news report that interviewed ex-Child Protective Service agents, exposed that the entire CPS..... aided and abetted by the Virginia legal system...... is designed to separate mothers from their children.

The price is right.

(a) For every child taken from the parents, the Federal government pays CPS approximately $5,000 dollars. (b) If the child is a minority, more money is paid. (c) And if the child has a disability, the feds payout even more in taxpayer’s money to separate children from parents.”

NOTE: The reporter who exposed this corruption kept getting death threats directed at him AND his family for covering this story.

Amazing how this just now happened and the media just discovered it.

You'd almost think this "amnesty for the children" campaign was orchestrated out of the White Hut, but that would never happen.

Children are not doing this by themselves. Who is running this operation? ......there is massive collusion, and a conspiracy, among conniving Third World govts to organize this massive invasion of our country.

This is part of the armed insurgency---calculated to weaken US ntl security---so that the advancing forces (and those already here) can complete the takeover conniving Third World govt have planned.

Children? Michael Savage recently saw clandestine photos taken at a so-called “youth” holding facility. These aren’t children.....unless you consider a 20-year old Guatamalan sporting gang affiliation and prison tattoos “a child”.

==========================================

OBAMA'S PERMANENT DEMOCRT MAJORITY HAS A SPANISH ACCENT Obama has done everything in his power to suck-up to illegals except fellate a latino on the steps of the Capitol.

We need to make it plain that Dems are in collusion w/ corrupt, greedy Third Worlders. The T/W has designs on the US---- and all that we possess. The calculated plans include manipulating vote-crazed politicians---making backroom deals to exchange US tax dollars for votes.

Calculated T/W connivers figured out that organizing hyphenates into pressure groups and exchanging votes for giveaways is the way the Democrat party operates.

===============================================

Amnesty is a Third World ticket to the endless gravy train---US taxpayers are forced to finance Third World pressure groups---all of them, lined up w/ their hands out for zillions in "foreign aid."

LYING IN WAIT FOR OUR TAX DOLLARS---THESE IMPOVERISHED COUNTRIES CURRENTLY HAVE ORGANIZED PRESSURE GROUPS INSIDE THE US (here illegally): Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominica Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico (stateside)l Salvador, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela.

Where are the former CIA/FBI agents who are tired of the one giving the American people and the mili/tary the finger?
Where are they to go and investigate how these people are coming en masse via Mexico to our borders?

Knowing this administration, we probably have busses coming from Guatemala via Mexico with a payoff and nod to Mexico to allow it.

Where are the brave investigative agents/reporters who are willing to go to Guatemala and follow this people to see how it’s being coordinated?

It’s sad, people were dumpster diving to get the dirt on Sarah Palin, but no brave souls or whistle-blowers to blow this incursion of illegals into our country.

I like your solution.

And this is no “humanitarian crisis”. It is an invasion, plain and simple, planned by the Soros Administration and Mexico in order to bring chaos and to destroy the rule of law in our country.

...he answer to the question as to why the big pickup in minors - Mexico stopped jailing minor illegals - they issue a notice to leave the country and release now. They have 14 days to leave the country or face arrest.

***
And I am betting that the Soros Administration and Mexico put their heads together to come up with this policy. A brilliant strategy for destroying our civilization by overwhelming the native population.

I wish I could believe that, but this is a deliberate plan of invasion carried out with co-operation between Mexico and this corrupt administration as part of a plan to destroy our civilization.
