Six children have died in custody. So far.
And there's no telling how many more have died on their dangerous journey to the boarder facilitated by the drug cartels, and being accompanied by strangers.

When the State takes a person into custody, the State is responsible for the well being of the detainee. The State is acting in loco parentis with respect to a child being held.

If your neighbor's kid died while in custody of his or her parents, I'm sure you would not have such a glib response. You might wonder how could a parent allow a child to die on their watch.

Hey phoney outraged idiots, Those photos of children in cages were during the Obama administration. Criminals are routinely split away from their children. And,A huge number of these children are being brought across the border by smugglers and perverts. They can't even determine whether those are their real parents or not

Thanks 👌

Bard, it appears that the waste that you left behind is drawing flies.

"Over the last few days, stories of bureaucratic sadism have poured forth from America's southern border. ... The New York Times reported on a mother deported to Guatemala without her 8-year-old son.

Senator Ben Sasse, a Nebraska Republican, dispatched this argument in a Facebook post on Monday. "The administration's decision to separate families is a new, discretionary choice. Anyone saying that their hands are tied or that the only conceivable way to fix the problem of catch-and-release is to rip families apart is flat wrong," he wrote. Some in the administration, he added, "have decided that this cruel policy increases their legislative leverage."
