Hopefully this thread title is less polarizing
than the one about toddlers and cages,
which thread is now closed.

Apparently, Amnesty International has the job of tracking down parents for the hard-to-find cases. Is the US Government paying the bill for their work? I certainly hope so.

Who would be so cruel as to tear children under five from their parents' arms and separate them for so long? Those little ones will be traumatised for life.
Evil.

Hopefully less Polarizing? Facts are not innately bad. Monsters are.
We should not avoid truthful issues in hopes that they go away secretly. There is no rule that if the truth is offensive we must never risk offending anyone by mentioning it.

If someone keeps sea lice or sharks a secret at your local beach you will be bitten.

Do not forget the men who champion taking children immigrnts are Jeff Sessions and Trump.

Honduras and Guatemala seem to get the most frequent mentions,
in these stories of the countries south of the border.

Hereabouts there are many workers from Ecuador and Brazil
however the two Central American countries undoubtedly are
included in the local population,
judging from the complaints about coercion by immigration agents locally.
