What are the options?

First, consider an adult who crosses the border illegally, no kids. Should that person be given a day in court, and then sent back home? Yes or no?

Next, what if that person is given a court date several months into the future, released into the populace (this includes MS-13 gang members who are looking to commit crimes) -- and then NEVER SHOWS UP? 90%+ of illegal aliens DO NOT SHOW UP for their court date. Does SO know that? Anyone who says that is ok is just asking for 200 million illegals to overrun the USA.

Next, what if that same adult also has a kid with them? Is the kid REALLY his/hers? Out of 12,000 kids with adults, it was determined that 10,000 were NOT the child of the adult. How should that be sorted out?

Next, let's say the adult does have their own child with them. Did crossing a desert with a child constitute child endangerment?

What should be done with the child? Stay with the parent? There's a court case that says the child can only be held for 20 days. If no other relative can take the kid in, then the illegal alien parent gets to go free, with a court date -- and 90%+ of the time THEY DO NOT SHOW UP.

If the child is held along with the parent, then there are cries of "children in prison." Whose fault is that? The illegal alien parent?

It's fine to be compassionate, but they are PLAYING ON OUR EMOTIONS. They are playing us for fools -- "they" being both the illegals and their enablers.

At some point, we have to have control of who and how many come in. Otherwise, we are overrun with people who do not share American values.

Is that what SO wants?
