No Borders?

To start off, I want a border wall. This emotional outburst on taking children away from parents is a media that hates Trump fueled hysteria.  It happens every day to U.S. citizens, when they break a law, especially a felony offence and their are children in the home. People go to jail and children are separated from their parents. It happens every day. Why should it be different for non -citizens that break the law and come here illegally? I know of a girl, I met her when she was 12 years old when I was living in Tacoma. She was the product of a john and a prostitute. She never knew her father. Her mother was incarcerated most of her life for drug or prostitution offenses. She was separated from her mother most of her growing up years. She had five younger siblings, the next three younger sisters were adopted by an Aunt. After there the Aunt said no more. The next one was given up to the state of Washington for adoption. The one after that was adopted by a different Aunt. I do not know if there were anymore siblings after that. Even our own children in this country get separated from parents because of the illegal activity of the parents.  One of my ex -wives had three children, one was raised by her Grandmother and Grandfather. The second child by the other grandmother and the third child by an Aunt. It happens every day, once again, this separation was caused by a drug addiction and this ex was unable to raise her own children. I believe this ex got her life together but it was to late for her and her children. Divorce separated children from at least one of their parents on a full time basis. Its cruel and it hurts the kids involved. My daughter was a 3.2 - 3.4 GPA student. The first report card after I was out of the house she slipped to 1.17 GPA and then dropped out. Perhaps I sound calloused, I am not. I tried to be there for my daughter as much as I could. I tried to take the first girl mentioned in this post to visit her mom in prison. I bought her school clothes and back packs etc. The point being it happens to our kids when parents break the law. So if these people are so open to open borders, open their own homes to any one that wants to enter. Last year, I had neighbors, grandparents who were raising two of their grandchildren. The oldest attended college locally. The grandparents moved to Texas with the other grandchild and told the one in college he could come to Barbara and My house  and stay if he needed to. With out clearing it with us. That is open borders and I did not agree to open my home after the fact. I could not believe they told this kid he could stay with us with out talking to us first. That is what open borders is like. Think about it. These people coming across the border from other countries, do you have any idea what they are like? Can you imagine giving your daughters birth control to prevent them from  getting pregnant if they are abused by smugglers during their journey here?  Bottom line we need to lock the doors on our borders just like we do our homes and only let in the people we want. My ancestors came from Europe, but they entered legally. I am not against people coming here, just do it legal and don't think just because you lived across the street from me for 4 years, when you move to Texas that you can send your 18 year old to live with me. I lock my doors and want to lock the doors on our borders.  God bless, LVZ.
