Why is this ok? This is CBS News with a video clip of a boy found wandering across the border between Mexico and Texas, so you can be sure there is no right-wing bias. It breaks my heart that children are being abandoned and dumped not only by their families, but by the bands of people they walk with. This makes me sick. A situation has been created where there are kids that were was abandoned by mom and dad some time ago, or stolen and were left to walk with some group which then abandoned him as well. This kid’s whole goal was to make it into the U.S. He’s not the only one.
Just prior to the election last year (October 21st, 2020), there were 545 children in U.S. custody where the government couldn’t seem to find their parents. The news headline said “Parents of 545 Children Separated at the Border Cannot Be Found”
It continued on to say, “A new report shows hundreds of cases in which the deported parents of migrant children who were taken from their families cannot be located.” New York Times however didn’t seem to have a source for that report.
New York Times said there were 545 kids that were separated from their families that couldn’t find their parents. No one stopped to ask why, they just said, “migrant children taken from their families.” Ever wonder why we couldn’t find the families? The answer will be evident, very quickly.
As of April 6th, 2021, kids are entering into the United States as part of groups, cartels and non-family members at a rate of 492 a day over the last month+. This surge is staggering and increasing nearly on a daily basis.
Let’s put that 492 kids over a 30 day timeframe into a number you can do something with. That’s over 14,000 children that don’t have parents in this country. Separated, not by the government – but by circumstance. The problem did exist, but now it’s out of control
As of the end of March – Over 18,000 children were in U.S. custody and the number continues to grow.
Reach out to your local Senator or Representative. We must put a stop to this.
