Originally posted by Charles View PostAnd after that being separeted from their parents. Feel free to try to ignore it. I think this way of deliberately turning your blind eye to children suffering tremendeous harm is what causes more and more people, including me, to conclude that you guys are not really Christians.

The left may have overplayed their hand here. By portraying this as such an urgent crisis they may find themselves forced to make some compromises (like maybe on the wall for instance) in order to get legislation passed.
Of course I tend to believe that many of them don't want anything done so they can keep trying to exploit it. For them these kids are nothing but disposable pawns to be used in attempt to amass power.

"Correction: The original version of this story misstated what happened to the girl in the photo after she [was] taken from the scene. The girl was not carried away screaming by U.S. Border Patrol agents; her mother picked her up and the two were taken away together."

The quote originates from before Marie Antoinette was old enough to spout such nonsense. It wasn't attributed to her until well after the first French Revolution, and no one during the first French Revolution even tried to use the quote or something similar as propaganda against her. It was allegedly in reference to famine... and yet there was no famine during the reign of her husband. Additionally, Marie Antionette's own letters do not provide evidence of a mindset that would lead her to say anything like that.

Given how easily and readily this administration lies, I have to admit I'm dubious. And "a few" does not square with the need to open a fourth "tender age" detainment center. I'd prefer the data come from a more impartial source. I cannot claim it is wrong - I just am seriously suspicious.The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
