There is only one correct way to view the estimated 52,000 unaccompanied minors who have streamed through the United States-Mexico border over the past year and who are now crowding federal detention facilities: children fleeing desperate, dangerous places who need our help.
Instead, they have become political pawns to the anti-immigration forces who are intent on demonizing the children as a way to push their own agenda.

I have compassion for all innocent children.
Now send the illegals back to their parents and native countries where they belong.
These so called Immigrant Children don’t deserve a damned thing from any American.All they deserve is the Right to Freely return to where they came.
This Government has enough trouble dealing with our own Veterans,Elderly and poor who need assistance.We need to stop throwing our limited Tax Payer dollars away on parasites that have NO Right to be here No matter what the Clown a Prince Does.
These aren’t “immigrant children.” They’re infected and infested illegal alien minors and invaders.
The attention should be on the fact that the children are being used as tools for the agenda. Anger directed at the children plays right into the hand of the puppet masters. Focus is needed.
I watched video of a 3 year old toddler walking up a path to a waiting US Border Patrol officer who swept her up into his arms. At the bottom of the path was a woman — presumably her mother — making sure she got there.
All the officer had to do was tell the toddler to go back to her mother — and do that about a dozen more times and this would stop.
Our border patrol officers have been reduced to child trafficking coyotes and that is not their job description.
These people calling for compassion need to personally house and support all the “children” in their own homes.
What?
Not enough room or resources to do so?
What makes them think the country as a whole has the space and resources?
My grandfather was an immigrant. He came to these United States through a legal port of entry, with his parents, as a child. He was granted permanent residency ... anglicized his given name ... earned his naturalized US citizenship the usual way, over the course of several years. He went to school, legally ... worked, legally ... founded a small business, legally ... served in the US Navy, legally ... founded another small business, legally. He was one of the most patriotic (as in Red, White and Blue American patriotism) men I have ever known. His sons served in the military, as did many of his grandchildren; some of his great-grandchildren currently wear the uniform. Others found jobs, legally, or founded businesses, also legally, or otherwise contributed positively to the Republic.
THAT, friends, is immigration.
This horde of illegal aliens pouring across our southern border is an invasion, never mind that some of the invaders are children.
Build large trebuchets to fling illegals back across the border. Charge for the right to shoot ‘skeet’ practice on the targets as they fly.
(Or at least send the message that ILLEGAL border crossings are dangerous and provide a NEGATIVE expectation).
The Berlin wall kept people in because they believed it was dangerous to cross. NOBODY inadvertently wanders into North Korea or Red China.
They come, because they believe they will benefit by so doing.
Thank you...
and that is why it is the illegal aliens and their AMNESTY supporters who are the anti-immigration crowd..
I am compassionate, I want people in those god-forsaken countries to do something to fix their problems in those countries, so they can live well in their own countries.
The jeers and taunts should go to the treasonous politicians who have orchestrated this invasion to advance their own particular anti-American political agendas.
And in particular, Baraq Hussein Ubomba, King of Amerika, deserves jeers and taunts (not to mention impeachment, trial, conviction, dethronement, and punishment to the fullest extent of what used to be the law).
They are children, for heavens sake, many of whom are trying to reunite with their parents. They deserve our compassion

Why do these illegal aliens who you think are planning to join other illegal aliens “deserve” anything ???
What did they do that made them “deserving” ???
Those parents deserve to be in jail for abandoning them...
and they all deserve to be deport...
together as a family of course...
It wasn’t that long ago that the left was insistent that Elian GonzAlez be reunited with his father in Cuba.....a boy should be with his father, they said, as they raided where he was living with relatives and forcibly returned him to Cuba.
I owe those so called “children” NOTHING. They are not Americans. They are foreign invaders coming here to raid our treasury. Even Barack Huseein Obama wants to give them 2 billion dollars of OUR money.
What? Can't you read?

Obama is taking the whole country. These are the actions of an invading army led by a US government that has declared war on America.
The Obama regime will deploy riot squads to make sure contagion-laden buses get through to American cities and towns. The US government is ready to shoot citizens in order to protect foreign criminal invaders.
=========================================
IS HE NUTS? The flaccid Boobama can't seem to summon up the b***s to close off the border but he vindictively calls out riot police to attack real Americans....
Must be time to call in the men with the white coats.
A DERANGED, DISEASED PRESIDENT Americans recognize a dysfunctional president who is clearly deranged ---- paranoid that he might lose power in mid-terms.
Boobamba is not thinking constitutionally----he is using the very same MO used by his boobish buddy---Hugo Chavez.
Boobamba blundered bigtime w/ the odious Obamacare and he does not have the votes to hold onto power, so he is importing votes to secure his position of power over Americans.
I guess I’m just not as incensed by Obama being Obama as I am at an anonymous editorial board supercilious enough to presume to tell me the “correct” way to think.
With all due respect to kids or adults in any country living under a crappy government, President Obama is the President of the United States of America...not Honduras or El Salvador or Costa Rica. The US simply can not take care of more poor people. We already have enough on our hands taking car of the bottom 47% in this country. I say this not to be mean or bad. I say this is fact. Our system will be pulled down if we keep adding takers to the government. Is anyone listening?
It is not our job to import the miserable and desperate in the world. If anything, we should be exporting freedom and capitalism. Central America, South America, and Mexico have wonder natural resources...much more than the US has. There is nothing special in the US about the dirt vs the dirt in say....Chile. Those countries need to get their act together and we do those countries a disservice by taking the pressure off of them by accepting their most desperate people.
It’s all so much freakin’ common sense. When will Obama’s term be over? I want a leader who likes our country!!
This is Obama’s version of Carter’s Mariel Boatlift.
