“You’re talking about officers in tactical gear going into communities, being videotaped in the streets, putting kids in car seats, carrying baby formula. Then what do you do with those families?” said Jason Houser, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s chief of staff from January 2022 until March 2023. “Are you going to go into neighborhoods in Philly, New York, Baltimore and start tugging people out of communities? That’s what they want. It puts law enforcement and the communities at risk.”
People were infuriated by children being separated from their families and put in cages, but it was all happening “elsewhere,” so there was a disconnect. Militarized mass deportation will be very different. Trigger-happy feds targeting families and dragging them out of their homes en masse. Shootings, violence, and the sheer terror of it will all be happening in every community and not just at some distant border.
Even some of the “cruelty is the point” crowd are going to have misgivings when they see this policy in action.

They were?
Who’s organizing the massive caravan on track to hit the US Border, just in time for the Election?

[Jesus] did live in Egypt for three and a half years. But it was not illegal. If He had broken the law, then He would have been sinful and He would not have been our Messiah.

Let me know if you need more quotes from prominent Christian leaders endorsing children in cages.
And he has the Christian vote. Multiple Christian leaders have stated that it is the will of God for him to be president and you can not be a good Christian and not vote for him.
Once again we will see the churches be an active helper in the process of oppression and democide.
Isn’t that shit already happening?
Pretty much forever.
Obama built literal cages for children.

But I’m sure GW was doing something similar, and wouldn’t be surprised if Bill Clinton did too.
Lately people want to act like if Trump does something, we can’t be mad at anyone else who’s done it, however we still have to be mad at trump.
Somehow saying everyone needs held to standards isn’t popular with either party now.
Obama built detention space for families and so did every other administration.
Trump started a specific policy of taking babies and children away from their families and housing them separately on purpose. What a moron to try and “both sides” this one.
They were talking about camps…
Camps aren’t a new trump thing that may happen if he gets a second term.
Okay you’re just calling them camps though.
Was Ellis Island a camp?
Did Ellis Island lock them in literal cages indefinitely?
We’ve don’t that too, during WW2 to Asians, that still doesn’t mean we should accept bad shit because at some point it was or may be worse
That’s the whole point of what I’m saying…
Nah you were trying to both sides standard practices, blaming Obama for some reason, and you are falsely conflating practices nobody really has a problem with with Trump’s policy of wanton family separation.
No, someone asked about camps…
I’m sorry I can’t explain this in a way you can understand, but I dont think repeating it again will help, have a good life tho.
Not quite. Separating children from families started under Obama, after the courts ruled that family detention centers were illegal.
