Taking Migrant Children From Parents Is Illegal, U.N. Tells U.S.

I take it that you are new to this discussion. Ignore the NYTimes. They're running a narrative. Stick to the facts and common sense. (Also, use the proper vocabulary) No one is taking migrant children from parents. Indeed, no one is separating illegal alien families, parents and children, if they are simply caught and returned across the border. The only "separation" occurs when illegal aliens request a hearing (as in when they are claiming asylum). Adult illegal aliens must be held securely until a determination is made. Should their children be placed in such holding facilities? Obviously not. Thus, the children are placed with family members currently residing in the US. This has been the policy and practice for some time, long before President Trump's Administration. Problems occur when the families holding such children go missing (probably illegal aliens themselves who don't want to be found). It is not a simple problem, one that cannot be resolved through political and ideological banter.

If I break the law ( say I rob a bank) I get locked up, I am separated from all my family. Why, because I broke the law. If you enter the US illegally YOU broke the law ! You and your family suffer because YOU broke the law.

First, they are not migrants. They are illegal immigrants who BROKE THE LAW by entering the US ILLEGALLY. Second, we DO NOT report to the UN. We have the right to secure our country. Third, they would not be separated from their parents if their parents did not break the law. So now people are blaming the country for enforcing their laws and not blaming the parents who break the law. Hypocrisy.
