That _ **is** _ deliberate. Not bothering.

The only way these people could have escaped moral accountability for this is if they had kept careful records that were destroyed in an accident (verifiable as such).

But if they just didn’t bother to keep records, then they were _deliberately_ consigning the children to permanent separation from their parents.

VT’s post seemed to me to be heavy with irony. If anyone read it as a straight expression of opinion, of course it would look very Trumpish.

If Franklin Graham were to express a scintilla of approval towards me, I’d feel a need to remove myself from society while I did some serious soul-searching, in the hope that I could identify and correct where I had gone wrong.

But then, I have a decent set of values.

Heh - considering the order that that post appeared in, I thought you were referring to **VT** , who indeed would have been most honoured to be associated with the man.  
Didn’t know about the guy until that post. Sadly, [now, though,](https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/427946-franklin-graham-trump-doesnt-try-to-make-up-lies-but-he-has) I do.

Maybe he can conjoin his evangelical organizations (Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association) with Sam Brownback’s Office of International Freedom (of which he is the Ambassador-at-Large) and call it the Holy Unctuous Preening Righteous-As-Shit Don’t-fuck-with-us, Priory of the Ordained Immaculate Gated Community of America.

I prefer "Damned to Hell for ALL Eternity For Hypocrisy and Lying and Being a Lousy Collection Plate Stealing Shitstain "  
Matthew 23:13-15

“But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut the kingdom of heaven in people’s faces. For you neither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel across sea and land to make a single proselyte, and when he becomes a proselyte, you make him twice as much a child of hell as yourselves.

They end up put up for adoption. They’re not good enough to become US citizens along with their parents, but they’re good enough once taken away from those same parents.

This is just [one article](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/deported-parents-may-lose-kids-adoption-investigation-finds-n918261) on the subject. I’ve seen others about migrant kids who got separated, put up for foster care, and their parents have been denied the return of their kid “because that would be disturbing to the child” who’s grown up knowing no other parents than the foster ones: remember, while Trump’s administration has been caging them, separating children from their undesirable parents isn’t exactly a new policy for the US government.

> Look, we all agree that the situation is terrible, but let’s assign blame where it belongs, and that isn’t with Donald Trump. Are the migrant parents not at fault for risking their lives to walk hundreds or thousands of miles so their children can eat and not be murdered, and for believing antiquated legends of a United States where they’ll be treated fairly and with compassion? Sure, it’s bad for the traumatized children ripped from their parents’ arms and absorbed into a system they can’t comprehend, run by people they don’t know speaking a language they don’t understand, but once they get a little older and we explain it to them slowly, they’ll agree that the blame lies with their mother and father, whose faces and voices they’ll probably have forgotten anyway. As for the parents, they can always have a half dozen more kids. They were going to anyway, right?

May I steal this, please?

How about Boko Haram? As I understand it, their [original batch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chibok_schoolgirls_kidnapping) is getting a little long in the tooth for their taste.
