The fact that this video has over 1k dislikes is deeply concerning.

I understand, illegal immigrants are not allowed in this country, but separating children from their parents is just inhumane and can damage a child mentally.

I've seen that this audio exists but I couldn't bring myself to listen to it until just today. It makes my skin crawl and it's so horrific....
Seriously how can anyone be in support of this?

It's sad when people used the bible to justify this.

This surpasses any political argument. If you don’t see what’s wrong with this we have a difference in morals not politics.

Exodus 22:21
“Do not mistreat or oppress a foreigner, for you were foreigners in Egypt.”

this hurts even more when you consider that this video’s uploading date is father’s day in latin america.

This traumatic experience increases these children's chances to become poorly adjusted adults with nothing to lose. Poorly adjusted adults with nothing to lose are the people who are most likely to commit crimes in order to sustain themselves. Therefore, it is in none of our best interests for this policy to exist.

South Americans would not be in this situation where they are forced to immigrate illegally, if it were not for the CIA installing authoritarian governments, funding and arming cartels and making legally seeking asylum or immigrating so insanely difficult.
We should've taken responsibility for the damage Nixon and Reagan's war on drugs did to South America, a long, long time ago.
But this does not stop a disturbing amount of people from blaming South Americans for their authoritarian governments and crime, when it was out of the people's hands. Why hold your country accountable when you can just shift the blame towards the minorities? It works every time, and so many gullible people fall for it.
We annihilated South American society, took no responsibility. When the consequences started affecting the homefront, rather than address the problem, we create an anti-South American narrative within the media, especially conservative circles, to alienate and dehumanize them. The increasing hostility towards South Americans in the US led to immigration red tape, so thick, it can take up to ten years to get a green card.
Despite our treatment of South American countries, they have stood by us as loyal allies against Chinese and Russian interests.
Until recently.
I'll leave why up to interpretation, but it's not rocket science.
If you, for some reason, think an expansion of Russian or Chinese influence should not be our concern, forward your question to the men and women inside Russian/Chinese dissent camps/gulags.
There's a small problem, though. You might have some difficulty communicating with them.
Why?
Corpses aren't very talkative.

Humanity has evolved into some kind of nightmare.

People need to start remembering the chant, "THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING!" It's been used many times in the past to point out injustice. This seems one of those times.

People are ridiculous thinking that people willingly cross the border for the fun of it. These countries have intense issues such as gang violence and poverty in which parents seek the best future for their children. It’s inhumane for this government to blind the fact that this country is made up of immigrants yearning to succeed in this country.

This breaks my heart

Some of the comments made me lost faith in humanity...

First what happen to separation of church and state?
Second you site the same Bible that told humans to help the poor, the needy.

You have to be a proper psycho to think separating children from their parents is all right.

From Italy a question to U.S.A. citizens: Are going out of your mind or what???

I honestly can't understand how something like that can happen?
