Oh I don’t know, my grandfather was a breaker boy at 8 years old. Ya ever worked in an underground coal mine at 8 yo?

So are you saying take a Muslim child along with you to rob a bank and then demand that the child go to federal prison with you when you are caught--all this in the name of UK compassion and the European Union a la May and Merkel and Clinton?

Surely they must be pitting kids in jail with their parents. If not, Mr. Black would not be criticizing us for not doing it.
We jail parents, apart from their children, who are convicted of committing an imprisonable offence. We don't allow border officials to house asylum seeking children away from their parents. We are not about breaching people's fundamental rights in that way, and I am proud of us for acting that way.

So, in England, when a person is arrested and put in jail (or gaol) that person's children are put in jail too? I doubt it. More anti-American fake news.
If they are convicted by due process of an imprisonable offence, we jail them apart from their parents, but we also ensure that there are adequate arrangements to alternatively accommodate their children eg: with grandparents or other family members, foster carers, social services. We don't lock them up away from their parents. When the parents are convicted of a felony, your point might carry weight, but that's not that case at your border.

Ob@m@ left a mess. We have tens of thousands of foster children of our own. Sessions said on TV that when the immigrants are legal, the families stay together.

What kind of parent involves a child in the commission of a crime? Why aren't rich Europeans accepting Latin American immigration into their countries on a massive scale? Why did Clinton send Elian Gonzalez back to Cuba?

The European countries have already taken and are continuing to take hundreds of thousands of refugees from Africa and the Middle East - yet you criticise us for so doing. Please make up your mind - do you want us to take refugees or not?

We have taken in millions from all over the world although we don't need any more illiterate immigrant labor yet you think that we should put up illegals in 5 star hotels. Ted Cruz introduced a fix in federal law but if the Dems vote for it or allow it ro pass it will destroy their best political issue. No one said a word about Ob@m@ putting children in dog kennels. Both Clinton and Ob@m@ said that the unaccompanied children would be sent home. Clinton sent Elian Gonzalez back to Cuba but Bill is a rapist.

Why do Muslims always want to go to a Christian country? May and Merkel want more Muslims for the votes as well as the cheap labor. One Dem said that we need Latinos to clean our toilets (Latrinos).

Hillary has been on both sides of this issue and even CNN told her to make up her mind and that is why she put lipstick on her forehead.

Is it okay to separate mother and child via abortion?

More whaboutism. Do you want us in Europe to accept refugees or not? If not, be prepared to do your part. If yes, then don't whine about the number of immigrants we have. Make up your mind

Europe and the USA should shut down immigration. Gazans should move to UAE.

Do you think it is okay to separate mother and child via abortion?

On what Biblical grounds should we turn away refugees? Why should Gazans move to the UAE? Gaza is their home, the UAE isn't. That's like me suggesting that New Yorkers should move to Mexico. And, no, I don't agree with abortion, but that has nothing to do with this thread

Well, if you want more refugees, open your doors to Latinos.

Breaking up families; incarcerating children in 100F tents in the desert, mistreating the poor and vulnerable in their hour of need., etc Hardly pro-life, or indeed pro-family.
Simple solution; Stay home with your children.

Then they have themselves to blame.
They are declaring asylum from violence in their country. Being half Italian, you should recognize the name called to many of them who snuck into the country "Without Papers" . it's a pejorative but one somewhat based in fact....but not only Italians.
