There was a critical part to the influx of Central American
children into the United States that I was not aware of until now but if we had
“secured” our borders like I stated in the previous blog, the issue would still
not be an issue today.
The new information concerns the treatment of children from
Central America and not children from Mexico, etc. Children from Mexico or
other South American countries are immediately sent back (deported) to their
country of origin.
Children coming from Central America cannot be immediately
deported but must undergo a complex process mandated by a law passed a few
years ago (2008) specifically to combat and deter sex trafficking.
So instead of changing the law or blocking this particular loophole
and allowing immediate deportation of children from Central America and more
importantly, removing the main reason these children are being sent here, Obama
wants billions to process these children.
Unless the law is changed, these children will continue to
come here. Our government is desperately trying to find housing for these
children but state governors as well as ordinary Americans are trying to block
these efforts knowing that these children will become and remain wards of the
state for many years since the process to send them back is broken.
Well this is a fine mess we are in because of the ineptitude
of our government and all those that work for our government…now what?
