AN FRANCISCO — Chanting “Stop taking the children,” immigrants, activists and tech workers on Tuesday protested the Trump Administration’s hard-line immigration policies that are separating children from their parents at the Southwest border and causing outrage and debate on Capitol Hill and around the world.
“I can’t stand to hear one of those children cry and we’re hearing thousands of them,” said Judith Gips, 61, who teaches immigrant children in King City. “We’re going to take these children’s cries to get together and make ourselves heard. We have to take risks ourselves to help people who have risked everything to bring a little bit of decency to this country.”
The rally in front of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in downtown San Francisco drew several hundred protesters, blocking off a stretch of Sansome Street. It came as the Trump Administration doubled down this week on its “zero-tolerance” policy for illegal border crossers, arresting parents and taking more than 2,300 children to shelters over a recent six-week stretch. The sounds of crying children at a U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility begging for their parents picked up on a secretly-recorded audio tape were posted this week by ProPublica, creating a larger and more impassioned backlash to the policy.

You can tell that they weren’t prepared for The Donald’s executive order.
And now they just look like idiots screaming to stop a practice that’s already been stopped.

“I totally agree. Stop taking the children. Turn them and everyone else back at the border.”
Call their bluff... take the children and kick the adults out. However, when living in Tejas years ago it was not unknown for certain folks to throw their kids in front of traffic so as to get an insurance settlement. So much for “family values”.
Many of these kids cried when their parents turned them over to coyotes.
womp womp.
Notice these shallow thinkers don’t understand allowing these individuals to stay just creates problems. The countries they fled stay cesspools. These people are injured and exploited enroute. Why don’t the extremely wealthy liberal entertainers and digital mega Bucks contribute money to fight crime and provide better living environment in the invaders countries. Dollars go bunch partnering these poor countries.
Just another day in San Francisco
Can’t believe they’ve been doing this for almost 20 months now.
Dried out old hippy hags with no husbands, kids or lives.
WHO are these protesters funded by?
In Houston this week’s protest was put on by the Socialist party.
There is another coming up in next weekend planned for marching from city hall to Ted Cruz’s office (bet they don’t have a parade permit). It has 5 groups involved including organized labor unions (gee labor unions for scab illegal immigrant labor).
Your plan is perfection and simplicity at its finest.
Anna Marie Stenberg, 69, climbed the high fence at the delegate entrance at the Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday. She was one of four people arrested and later released on federal charges. An attorney argues they, like others, should not be charged.

They have no lives at all. I have never seen a group of people turn against a guy that they watched on TV for so long (And loved) and spew so much hatred. It’s unbelievable. Almost demonic. Well, it is demonic. Honestly, I didn’t vote for Trump or Hillary, but I should have voted for him. I didn’t know the Left Wing were all going to lose their minds, and become this Satanic Cult against him LOL.
