They deported the parents. Would you leave a sick children under the custody of a state who thinks you're sub-human due to your skin color? They had no choice but to bring the kid back with them to Mexico.
why did they deport a family traveling for medical care? they weren't sneaking across the border.
They didn't actually cross the boarder at all, in this case. They were already in Texas and drove to a different part of Texas.
Remember that whole "Constitution-free zone" thing the ACLU has been harping on about for a decade or so now? The shit happening right now is why we should've heeded the ACLU's warnings.
I've been on about that for about 3x as long, and roundly met with blank stares and outright denial. Once again, not at all happy about being proven correct.
It sucks being right about horrid shit.
Because the cruelty is the goal.
Because of their skin color
Because they weren't the right color
Because they’re racist and got off on being evil.
There's a quota.
Trump isn't happy with the numbers they are deporting.
