Heck, most are being sent away to relatves here through the fastest means their parents can find. It may be illegal, it may be dangerous although it seems less so than staying put, but it gets kids to safety.

Many of those relatives are parents according to the article. And presumably they are also here illegally otherwise they would have brought their kids with them.

Really what's the point of having a border anymore? Does it only exist to stop drug dealers, smugglers, and terrorists?

What taxes are those? income tax? lol......neither do the 1% in this country.....they live off the LOOPOLES that give them more money in their pocket.

Those relatives pay SALES TAXES, GAS TAXES.....communication taxes(cell phones) and electric taxes(when they pay their bills) and they pay property taxes when they pay their rent.

To establish a home. Often one parent comes, the family follows in a year or two. It's far easier to acclimate kids to totally new surroundings when they can be brought into a stable situation.I would imagine a lot of these kids are from prior marriages as well. Parental rights still apply.

Most of them have family here. Including their parents. They should be reunited with them. Any others with a story to tell where they wee personally accosted, recruited or harangued by gangs is a refugee. Barring family, they should be placed in a sponsoring foster home until they are 18. Plenty of people are stepping up. Seems there's very little trouble integrating these kids once away from the haters and out of the limelight at the border.

There were similar problems with the Mariel boatlift refugees. Very little is different here. Although there's probably fewer felons in the mix, Castro isn't exactly emptying the prisons into the mix.

Applying our Pro-Life Convictions to the Border Crisis

Posted by streetcarman1 on Sun Jul 27 15:50:27 2014, in response to Nearly 90% of the Central American kids...., posted by bingbong on Fri Jul 25 22:51:58 2014.

fiogf49gjkf0d
From the Huffingtonpost.com:

Applying our Pro-Life Convictions to the Border Crisis

Daniel Darling

Vice President of Communications, The Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention.

Posted: 07/24/2014 2:47 pm EDT Updated: 07/24/2014 2:59 pm EDT

Perhaps there isn't a more gut-wrenching series of images than the ones of crowded detention centers filled with refugee children and their mothers, who risked life and limb to enter the U.S. Southern border and escape often volatile and violent conditions in places like Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador.

Immigration is a complex issue, provoking passionate responses on all sides. There is genuine frustration with the federal government across many administrations and Congresses. Solutions seem varied, with people of good will on opposite sites of reform efforts.

But I hope we can all agree to see the human side of this problem. As someone who has devoted much of my life to defending the sanctity of human life and the dignity of the family, I'm concerned about the rhetoric often employed when talking about these people, mostly children, who have recently crossed our borders illegally.

Followers of Jesus believe in the dignity of every human life, from natural conception to natural death, regardless of their usefulness to society. This is why we recoil, in horror, at the savagery of Kermit Gosnell's abortion mill, we cheer when a legislator like Wendy Davis is defeated in her attempt to stop common-sense legislation that bans the killing of human life after twenty weeks. This is why we advocate for pro-life crisis pregnancy centers, many equipped with ultrasound technology that allows a mother to view the life within her womb at the earliest stages of development. This is also why we advocate for the dignity of developmentally disabled children, often tragically aborted on the altar of convenience.

In Psalm 139, King David writes poignantly of his own conception. Each child, the psalmist reveals, was "knitted and formed" by the loving hands of the Creator. No child enters the world outside God's watchful eye. Our Christian faith demands that we view every single human life with infinite worth and dignity, created in the image of God.

So it should disturb us to hear utilitarian arguments employed in the immigration debate. I've seen refugees described as "invaders," "aliens," even "lepers" intent on destroying our way of life. But each immigrant, regardless of their status, is a human being, created in the image of God. Especially children. It was Jesus who commanded us to "suffer the little children to come to me and forbid them not" (Matthew 19:14).

Though many are here, desperately trying to escape the often-volatile conditions in their native countries, sober reality tells us that we can't save all the world's children; well-meaning compassion must be met with wise public policy. The government does have a right to secure its own borders.

And yet those of us who take our pro-life convictions seriously should also guard against a kind of subtle utilitarianism. Followers of Jesus, who consider children a "heritage from the Lord" should view, with suspicion, arguments that label children as an obstacle to a flourishing civilization. This kind of America starts to sound less like the home of Lady Liberty and more like the home of Margaret Sanger.

Well-meaning Americans will continue to disagree on the exact policy prescriptions for the border. But hopefully we can all agree to see each in each undocumented child, the image of the Creator. My hope is that followers of Jesus begin to see immigrants as less of a threat to their way of life and more of an opportunity to fulfill the Great Commission and be a part of God's sovereign plan to gather a people from every nation, tribe, and tongue (Rev 7:9; Rev 5:9).
