CNN article from July 2014....
Unintended consequences: 2008 anti-trafficking law contributes to border crisis
Who were the Congressional Leaders back then ?
Perahps, but to a child it is the same. You've seen the pictures..some of these children live in cages, on concrete floors with alumium foil blankets eating institutionalized (Meaning what they would serve you in Jail) food.

Or removed from the source of their trauma.
I suppose we could just not investigate their circumstances and let them potentially be at the mercy of traffickers.
But hey, anything to make Trump look bad right?

The HHS is trying to help these children, not jail them. The best thing someone concerned about these children can do is donate their time, energy and money, to help the HHS.

Most crossing are pow's from an unjust war on drugs.
Excuse me, I need some mud boots as the floor of this thread seems to filling rapidly with bullcrap.
NA that is just what is running down your leg.
That is the only source of such and it is not mud.
Seriously though the war on drugs does indeed play a large role in all this and it is very much being ignored.
At the end of this and if for some reason we had a wall with a big door in it we still would not have addressed the underlying conditions that is leeding to the vast amounts of hurt these drug pushers are putting on people all across the world.
In a better world we would be looking at the solutions as well as all the factors.
That's not the United States' problem. Seriously, Mexico has a corrupt and ineffectual government. What you're calling for has a solution, but it isn't the solution you want and (IIRC from the Syria bombing discussion) it is a solution you'll piss and whine about as much as you are pissing and whining about this solution: treat the Mexican drug and human trafficking cartels as terrorist organizations, and blow the snip out of them using the US military. That's how the west handles countries in which global threats have escaped the control of their own domestic leaders.
If we did take that path, by God we'd better build the wall first, electrify it, dig a moat on both sides, and position snipers every 20 feet because that crap will flow into this country like floodwater through a gully if we actually "solve" the cartel and Mexican corruption issues.
Your comment is presumptuous
something in my gut tells me that hhs would rather kill me than let me help inside a facility

This cartoonish "Evil Island" persona attached to the president over something that is clearly not so, is presumptuous. Also asinine and intellectually lazy.

So you made that post, and virtue signaled without doing your research again, not surprising
And yes you can volunteer with HHS and NHS on the border, all you have to do is submit the application.
So when will you be leaving?
