In a Monday letter to a Mexico City Vatican conference, Pope Francis wrote that the tens of thousands of Central American children illegally crossing into the United States should be “welcomed and protected.”
Just days after President Obama visited Texas and pledged a solution to the US border crisis, the Pope said migrant children’s human rights are being violated.

Come an’ get ‘em, popey
then ship’em to the vatican.

Well by all means, let’s ship a few plane loads of the little rascals to The Vatican!

This guy has some serious work to do regarding the treatment of children within the organization he’s running.
forced to emigrate? Nonsense. They were not driven from their home, they chose to leave.
They are getting much better treatment than the Tea Party by the IRS.
“Welcome. Here’s a gift bag with a brochure on how to legally become an American and some cookies. Now, get on this southbound bus and go home.”
