The fact is that the majority of these children have left their parents to come here.
They are not coming here to be with their parents, they are coming here to try to become citizens.
We need to return these children to their parents.
They are also breaking the law.
Are we a nation of laws or do we just make it up as we go?

50,000+ children-- some with only their birth certificates, possibly some with not even that. We are being led to believe that these children wandered thousands of miles through danger and desert without their parents.
That Cuban child had a father that wanted his son in his custody.
These children-- what about these children? This is nowhere near the same situation.
Now for abortion, the Supreme Court has set the law so that abortion is legalized. We are a nation of laws and the Supreme Court of the land has spoken. Why attempt to create laws that circumvent the intent of the Supreme Court? They intended for American women to be able to have access to safe and healthy ways to kill their unborn children.
Some conservatives will go out of the way to prevent the killing of an unborn child that they don't know and probably will never know.
Now we have 50,000+ children staring us in the face, from behind bars. What do some conservatives suggest we do with these children?
They want America to wash her hands of these children. They are not our children-- but neither are the aborted ones or the ones that will be raised in horrendous environments becuase the mother was forced by circumstance (not love) to give birth and to take care them.
These children are already alive, full of promise and potential right in front of us, but these, they aren't ours.
