gee, first it was separating all the families at the border was kind of like, well, it's a deterrent to discourage others not to make the trip. then it was well, they broke the law, it's not like any of us can retain custody of the kids when are are sent to jail...
now it's, well, wait, we have to test each one through dna, ya know, they might be trafficked!
considering that some of the mothers are now saying that they were told when the kids were taken from them that they'd never see them again, they would be deported without them, and the kids would be adopted out...
got to ask..
just who is trafficking the kids here?

Personally, I think this is a fantastic idea. Everyone knows that you can't possibly be a parent to a child that isn't biologically related to you. It's a pretty foolproof plan. Science: 1, Immigrant Liberal Swine: 0
They are conducting DNA tests to see if those so called “parents” are actually their parents or in fact their sex slave owners. I say the extent we go through with the expenditure of these procedures to protect these children shows a very valiant effort by this administration.
This is also a really good point. It would be a really bad idea to ask the children if they were being used as sex slaves and/or had been kidnapped. They would be incapable of answering truthfully, because Mexican children are just future bad hombres biding their time (also, their feeble minds can't comprehend English). There is no chance that anything could go wrong here.

no, there are a few concerned groups and businesses donating the test kits. they are concerned because there is doubt that the gov't could actually reconnect these kids to their parents any other way.

Do you know the percentage of children brought in by people not their parents?
I saw a number as low as less than one percent.
I know even that's too high but really this is not an issue with these families who have been separated.
Like the MS13 numbers the number of smuggled children has been wildly exaggerated.
Of course when it turns out to be legitimate paternity or maternity those numbers won't be shared.
Like the nearly one thousand additional children they are reporting this week that was not mentioned last week.

DNA tests wouldn't have been necessary were it not for their incompetence to begin with.

Incompetence begets incompetence begets incompetence.
I don't want to accept this idiocy, one right after another, but damn. It's a very sad joke now.

Speaking of dumbassery, taking someones word for it that the child they are bringing over is theirs, when we have busts every week in the US for child sex slavery, and the majority are coming from across our southern border.
I cant believe you actually posted that with a straight face

I think Mexico should and could be doing a whole hell of a lot more than what they are doing currently to alleviate a lot of these issues we are having at the border, would you agree?

If they had bothered to do any paperwork on these families, they would know who the kids are, who the parents are, and how they could put their finger on each one.
It's BS.
NUECES COUNTY, Texas – Authorities have arrested a woman accused of selling one child and trying to sell two others.
KRIS reported that 29-year-old Esmeralda Garza was jailed under a $100,000 bond in Nueces County on a charge of sale or purchase of a child.
The suspect is accused of selling a 7-year-old boy to two men. Authorities said two more children were in the process of being sold, a 2-year-old girl and a 3-year-old girl.
Garza was arrested after a raid Friday morning in the Corpus Christi area and may face additional charges. Two other people with the suspect were arrested on drug charges.
