Dear Mr. X, I think that you might be jumping the gun. Keep in mind that Obama has already said that they will be returned. But my fundamental question to you that still remains unanswered is, are not some of these immigrants/refugees entitled to refugee status? I implore you to answer this very important question.

Dear Snarky. I don't know what you said, and I don't know what you meant,
but I wouldn't mind being stranded on a desert island with you. It would not be boring.

Longmire continued. "The Obama administration's band-aid fix has been to ship a good portion of these immigrants — many of whom are weak, emotionally vulnerable, sick, and confused — to other sectors as far as San Diego county in California and release them with no obligation other than to show up for a hearing in 15 days.
“Most of those released will abscond and never show up for their hearings, taking their chances that ICE won't have the time or resources to go looking for them," she added. "Until they can get to where they want to go, they're overwhelming local community resources in cities like Laredo, El Paso, and Tucson that haven't had enough time to prepare for this ‘solution.' This is an awful way to showcase what cartel and gang violence is doing to children and their families in Central America, and it's a humiliating example of what our government's inability to develop solid immigration and border security policies can cause.”

WOW! I know we keep hearing about the numbers, but to see so many pictures of them all packed into rooms like sardines...Unreal! And that is a LOT of men and adults compared to small children. There is no way all these adults are going to find jobs here! This spells disaster.

Dear Queen of Swords,
"Since the countries they are coming from are the same today as they were yesterday and the day before, why hasn't Obama been paying attention to the warnings that a mass exodus was being undertaken? Is he really THAT inept or mentally unfocused?
Americans are not heartless. It just pisses us off royally to be used, tricked, lied to, and treated as if our taxes are a never ending source for slush funds (read: non profits and their associated business connections) that feed these so-called poverty initiatives. We The People that pay ungodly amounts of our hard earned money to fund this sh*t are fed up with it. We are Taxed Enough Already."
I can assure you that Obama is not THAT inept or mentally unfocused, and I agree that Americans are not heartless. I would ask you though, what should be done with these people? Obama has already said that they will be returned. A planeload of Hondurans has already been returned. I would ask you if these people are entitled to due process of US law. Please tell me what you want.
Mara Salvatrucha is perhaps the most dangerous gang in the country at this point. Originating in El Salvador, the gang has gone transnational, with members across the United States (in 42 states) and in countries like Guatemala and Mexico. Read more: www.businessinsider.com...
La Raza President and CEO Janet Murguia said it sickened her to hear Americans against illegal immigration chanting "USA! USA!" at protests around the country.
Singling out the Murrieta demonstrators during her keynote address at La Raza's annual conference in Los Angeles on Monday, Murguia accused them of having "cloaked their hatred in patriotism" by shouting "'USA! USA!' again and again."
"It made me angry," she said. "In fact, I was outraged."
Murguia did not say anything about the "Viva La Raza!" chants from pro-amnesty advocates in Murrieta. She also failed to mention that the number of illegal immigrant children who have unlawfully entered the country drastically spiked in the year after Obama enacted DACA in 2012. And a Pew Research report, based on data obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, found that nearly 90% of these children are teenagers and not just "little kids," as Murguia claimed nearly all of them were.
