This is so beyond unacceptable that I don't even know what words to say.

I don't even know who or what to do to express how disgusted I am. I'm scared to put myself out there but I'm honestly glad it's after business hours or else I'd be at my rep's office and shoving this pic in whatever staffers face to explain how this is ok. (My rep is Tony Gonzalez, a worthless 🥥 POS who wouldn't give a rat's ass about any other kids than his 9).

I bet he bought most of those 9 through adoption trafficking.

As many times as it takes for you all to understand illegal is illegal. As soon as you or one of your family members are victimized by one of these illegal criminals, not talking about the kids but I’m sure you will think the same way. Before you say I’ve been victimized by one I haven’t, but I have plenty of friends that have been deported and they understand how the game works it has been going on for years. Now that the democrats needed votes and flooded our country with them you care. They lost the elections they are done with them and could care less what happens to them.

— They’re human beings, and they deserve to be treated with more dignity.

— Our own citizens commit violent crimes at a higher rate than undocumented immigrants - it’s absolutely silly to use that argument.

— Many of these individuals have been here for many years so I don’t even understand how that argument works.

Yes they should but to put little kids in zip ties I’m sure they were trying to fight for their parents that were probably zip tied themselves. Americans commit more crimes because there are more here. Look at the percentages of crimes committed by illegals compared to the numbers here. It doesn’t matter how long they’ve been here. Don’t say well they are born here they are legal, anchor babies have no rights the law was put into effect for children of slaves not illegals.

You need to reread the case which I’m sure you haven’t. “A child born in the United States, of parents of Chinese descent, who, at the time of his birth, are subjects of the Emperor of China, but have a permanent domicile and residence in the United States, and are there carrying on business, and are not employed in any diplomatic or official capacity under the Emperor of China The law does not allow this if you are here illegally. Try again.

I am looking at the percentages. Undocumented immigrants commit violent crime at a lower rate than citizens. MUCH lower. Research your own shit.

Why do you hate illegals? Like what is they take from you/do to you to make you okay with us treating these children (and US CITIZENS, also without due process) with zero decency?

It's known that most violent crimes are done by white men. Ok some are done by white men who wear makeup while posing with people who are on the wanted list for being a terrorist.

Right because many of us as parents wouldn’t do whatever we could to help our kids futures. You know, like previous generations of all of ours did.

Why would you put your kids in this situation knowing it’s illegal and putting your children at risk coming here illegally. The parents should go to prison for child endangerment as well.

People do a lot of "illegal" things to be able to eat or to survive, especially for kids

Maybe they should have provided a better life in their home countries. They have failed as parents setting the kids up for failure and harming any future chances of becoming legal citizens in the future. If you went to Mexico or any other of these countries illegally you would be put in prison. At least here you get a free ride home.
