Do not separate parents and children at the border.
Separating children from parents is inhumane and immoral. Secretary Kelly assured Wolf Blizer they will be taken care of. The goal is to stop people from bringing their children with them to the border. What country are we living in?
Why is this important?
I read the following the evening, on the CNN website, "Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly confirmed he is considering an initiative that would separate immigrant children from their parents if they enter the U.S. illegally.
During an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer, Kelly said he would do "almost anything to deter the people from Central America to getting on this very, very dangerous network that brings them up through Mexico and to the United States."
When pressed by Blitzer about whether DHS personnel would separate undocumented immigrant children from their parents, Kelly confirmed he was considering such protocol.
"Yes, I am considering, in order to deter more movement along this terribly dangerous network, I am considering exactly that," he said. "They will be well cared for as we deal with their parents."
Why it cannot happen is obvious. This is still the United States of America.
