Bidens plan tp award 450 grand to kids seperated from parents at the border is insane. They should not be made wealthy for their problems.They will get plenty of free stuff from the gov't. But we are a wealthy country and they should not be punished for their problems. And 450 will only incentivise more child smuggling. They deserve some kind of support. 50,000 seems like a fair amount. If properly asministered that should be enough

They came to America illegally. Why should they be given anything? They were separated from their children temporarily. Anyone arrested is separated from children. What is the big deal? Why do we continue to be the dumbest country on the planet when it comes to immigration?

I disagree. $450,000 is ridiculous as is $50.000. These people involved in illegal entry into the US should be handled for what it is. Deportation to wherever they came from. We have too many kids in this county that need a home to come home to, and a meal to grow with, and an education to succeed with in life. These politicians only think in terms of how can I buy more v**es in my next e******ns, and not in how we can better serve our Nation.

Fine. You write the check. I worked for my money and I am damn tired of seeing it frittered away.

In the best of worlds they should get nothing. But we don't live in that world. We should, of course close the border. End of problem. Expell ALL i******s. But untill that happens no one over 18 deserves a dime.But kids should be helped.

Why is it so hard fir some to accept what law says ?

They were not illegal !

dennis2146 Loc: Eastern Idaho

Right up until those i*****l a***ns APPLY for asylum status they are STILL I*****L A***NS and have broken American law by even being in this country. The very minute anyone crosses into America without permission is against the present I*********n L*w. Why is it so hard FOR you to accept what that part of the I*********n L*w states?

Check out THIS I*********n L*w:

I have no problem with any of your sources but...

1,you have no idea that any of those apply to these people do you other that opinion ?
2. Per the law people seeking asylum can cross anytime anywhere so they were not illegal if they were crossing to seek asylum were they?


You are assuming. And nothing more .

dennis2146 Loc: Eastern Idaho

I posted the law just as you did. Do you see something wrong with what I posted? Prove me wrong then.

You seem to have the idea anyone in the world may simply come into America and there is nothing to stop that from happening. I have arrested i*****l a***ns numerous times and they all were sent right back to where they came from. It is against the law to cross the American border without permission. Why is it so hard for you to understand that premise even after I pointed out the law to you? Are you stubborn or just slow witted?

What number of people crossing the border illegally constitutes an invasion? Would 500 million chinese immigrants be an invasion? 500 Terrorists? 200,000 in one month across the Southern border. Over 1 million, this year.?? My belief is that the Biden administration is allowing the great number of people illegally crossing the sothern border so as to change the social structure of the population. For the sole purpose of maintaining Democratic party power.and with the ultimate goal of a socialist country. I can see no other purpose. All that said, the young children are innocent of all this and should get some kind of help. You want to set the age at 10 years> OK with me

Can you read
“”” I have no problem with any of your sources ”””




Yes if they are coming to seek asylum —- that is the law!! I quoted it to you!!



Very True UNLESS they ask for asylum . Then they can cross anywhere any time and are NOT illegal . In fact the law goes further than the crossing itself doesn’t it. In the first sentence:

“””” Any alien who is physically present in the United States.....”

They certainly aren't legal. If they would pursue the necessary steps to comply with our laws, that would be one thing, but someone who starts out by breaking the law with their first step into the country does not seem to offer much promise to become lawful and productive residents.

Alafoto Loc: Montgomery, AL

How many of the people who cross illegally do you suppose have applied for asylum since arriving?

DennyT Loc: Central Missouri woods

I have no idea just like you .
