    So you want to abolish child protective services for doing the same thing, correct?

        Your major complaint about the protesters is they're untidy. Seriously? That's really the pathetic crap you're opting for? Go away and come back when you're a serious person.
        Remember folks, this comes from the same deranged mind that has declared US Southerners worse than Nazi’s and can’t seem to notice his own hatred isn’t much different than he accuses Donald Trump of having. Anyway, in reality land genicide actually means killing people for reasons due to stuff like racism and if taking children from parents is now genocide, I wonder how many governments he’ll declare immoral for doing the very same thing. There’s tons of horror stories of children being taken from their parents for the most absurd of reasons. He doesn’t care about their suffering because he can’t use them for political advantage.

          We can now add "genocide" to the long and ever growing list of things that starlight is pig poop ignorant about but insists on pontificating about

            And the US had millions of people within its boarders that are not here legally. Do you deny this?

            I wasn’t aware that it was a crime to remove people here illegally. Now go ahead, name these human rights abuses. I’ll wait.

              Well, you can use all the dramaqueen language you want, but you still haven't cited a crime. Do you even know what genocide is? Apparently not!

                Doofus, kidnapping and genocide are crimes. So is failure to comply with the court orders saying "no you can't do that, that's criminal, reunite the children with their parents immediately", which they are still in serious violation of to this day.

                  Yes, they are, but they have actual legal definitions and conditions, none of which have been met here, darlin.

                    Still clueless about what genocide constitutes I see. Apparently you're just dimly aware that it's a bad thing so you start hurling it about in the same way a five year old who hears swearing and mindlessly parrots it does.

                        I'm waiting for him to look up genocide and try to justify using it to claim "crimes" in the border crisis.

                          So therefore every government is committing crimes and should be abolished. Don’t you love it when your own logic cuts off your head?
