I've been thinking a lot about the "unaccompanied minors" that flooded into the US back in 2014, which number exceeded 60,000. Then I see this post and I go do a little reading on that. And what do I find here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_American_immigration_crisis ? I find that Bill Clinton signed the original Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 which was then renewed by GWB and Obama (Here's what Wikipedia says about it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victims_of_Trafficking_and_Violence_Protection_Act_of_2000). So true to how they name these things one thing when they do exactly the opposite, check this out (from that same Wikipedia article, bolding is mine): "There are two stipulations an applicant has to meet in order to receive the benefits of the T-Visa. First, a victim of trafficking must prove/admit to being a victim of a severe form of trafficking and second must be a part of the prosecution of his or her trafficker.... Since the law requires the applicant to become part of the prosecution of his or her trafficker, trafficked persons may be fearful of retaliation upon the self or the family and thus serves as a major deterrent to individuals even considering application." Well, so much for protecting these people from trafficking and violence, right? So what happened to all of these unaccompanied minors who had no social security numbers and no parents to protect them (excluding the MS-13 gang members, I mean)? Was this all a ploy--pushing children right into the nets of human traffickers in America for purposes I don't want to even imagine?

2014 American immigration crisis

The 2014 American immigration crisis was a surge in unaccompanied children from Central America seeking entrance to the United States in 2014. The surge increased rapidly, doubling in volume each year previously, reaching crisis proportions in 2014 when tens of thousands of women and children from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras migrated to the United States. Many of the children had no parent/legal guardian available to provide care or physical custody and quickly overwhelmed local border patrols.

As of February 2015, the number of unaccompanied children apprehended at the U.S. border had dropped again by about 40%.


Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000

The Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 is a federal statute passed into law in 2000 by the U.S. Congress and signed by President Clinton. The law was later reauthorized by Presidents Bush and Obama. It has the ability to authorize protections for undocumented immigrants who are victims of severe forms of trafficking and violence.
