Alright, quick post on this Trump policy of separating families at the border because Iâm sure some fuckface is gonna come digging through my blog and ainât nobody got time for all that.
1. The policy is extremely unpopular. Itâs not hard to tell, but surveys show that about 66% of Americans disapprove of the policy (source)
2. There is literally no law requiring the separation of families. None. This was a policy literally enacted last month. No other administration has done this.
3. This is a Trump administration policy. Not the democrats. Not Obama. Not HRC.
4. Many if not most of the people being caught at the border are seeking asylum. That is not a crime. In fact, they are doing what they are legally supposed to do. Per US law, you have to be at en entry point (a border) or already on US soil to request asylum.
5. The Trump administration has all but flat out said that theyâre holding the kids hostage (something they undeniably are 100% responsible for but are trying to blame on Democrats) to use as leverage for getting Dems to agree to fund âthe wallâ.
6. On that note, the wall isnât going to happen, itâs an idiotic impractical idea that would be a massive waste of tax payer dollars
7. CHILDREN, some infants, are being taken from their families without consent. Often times the families are lied to, being told theyâre taking the kid for pictures or a bath and itâs only hours later the families realize their kids arenât coming back
8. These children are locked in cages for 22 hours a day. They donât have furniture, a basic lack of privacy, are over crowded and oh yeah, TAKEN FROM THEIR FUCKING FAMILIES. If you think this wonât have lasting impacts on them you are an utter fucking idiot
9. Regardless of whether the families committed a crime (they didnât) itâs inhumane to separate families, to keep kids in cages, to lie to parents so they donât even know where their child is, how theyâre doing and so on. If youâre focused on the âherr derr illegalsâ bullshit and completely ignoring the kids being snatched away from their parents in a strange country where they may not speak the language and locked in cages for 22 hours a day. FOR NO REASON. And if you donât see the problem with that, you are a garbage human.
10. Thereâs been nothing to show that this is working as a deterrent.
11. There is NOTHING biblical about this. Do you honest to God think Christ would be ok with this? For real? Yes, the bible says to follow laws. But the families DID follow the law. Not to mention an unjust law doesnât really fall under that. The Bible straight up says (paraphrasing of course): Treat foreigners and strangers in your lands with kindness and love. Welcome them. Pretty sure it doesnât say âlock them in cagesâ
12. We shouldnât be making decisions about our country based on the Bible in the first fucking place.
Might add more later but Iâm about to pass the fuck out. Just a heads up, if you try some whataboutism shit I will drag you to fucking hell.
