“Round them up”??

I see this going REAL well on TV . . .

Thousands of crying children being rounded up (maybe the crew that kidnapped Elian Gonzanles is still around) and put unto croweded buses (or may cattle cars?) and being herded into detainment facilities until they can prove their immigration status. Yep - the MSM would LOVE this!

What kind of STUPID does the GOP need to be? Let’s just give the MSM MORE reason to claim we are xenophobic, racist, uncaring vermin!

Why not just ask them (or their parents) for their documents first? Do we really need to detain children just because they don’t speak english? It does take a day or two in a new country to be able to do so.

There are humane ways of enforcing the law. “Rounding up” children is not one of them.

That's the next step.

No, but we do need to "detain" adults until they can prove they are here legally.

No, but "rounding up" the adults is.

Did it ever occur to you that there are a myriad of ways to ‘round up’ these children, and not all of them lend themselves to bad TV?

And while I’m at it, you really think not rounding them up will keep the MSM from claiming we are xenophobic, racist, uncaring vermin?

Where have you been the last couple of decades?

You ought o come over to Little Tijuana sometime, I guarantee you will change your mind within 48 hours, so much so that you will probably start rounding up the little thugs yourself.
