a) Yes, this is too bad and something should be done.
b) Here comes the Dem talking points on "those horrible republicans who want to split up families."

Cry me a river!!!

Come here legally and you wont be putting your children through this. Enough with the anchor babies. Time to change that ridiculous law.

And we are also very upset because the agents chose one of the most sacred days for Mexicans: the Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe.

HERE WE GO! Ethnic insensitivity for arresting them on a Mexican holy day? WHat is next? No counterterrorism operations during the ramadan?

"And we are also very upset because the agents chose one of the most sacred days for Mexicans: the Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe."

"The bankrobber was very upset because agents chose the sacred day of Christmas to apprehend him."

The second one soumds silly, huh?

I used to have a lot of friends who smoked pot. Over the years those friends got older, had children and stopped smoking pot.

The reason they stopped smoking pot?

They put their children first and aren't going to risk getting arrested and imposing that situation on their children.

"I've been here for 47 years and I've never seen anything like this," said the 65-year-old Mexican immigrant. "And we are also very upset because the agents chose one of the most sacred days for Mexicans: the Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe.".

It's something Mexicans celebrate in Mexico. Maybe ICE wanted to make sure these Mexicans got back to their country on time for the celebrations?

Man I wish I could get away with these sorts of excuses the next time I get a traffic ticket!

"But it's my saint's day!"

"If I don't speed I won't be able to make it to work on time!"

"Who will care for my kids who I purposefully endangered by breaking the law?"

Pathetic. Deport every last one of these illegals and prosecute everyone who knowingly hires them to the fullest extent of the law.

...what is going to happen to the more than 100 children whose parents were rounded up and arrested?

Perhaps this is one of the things they should have thought about when they decided to sneak into this country illegally. The bad news is the you and I will likely end up paying for their support one way or the other.

[FormerACLUmember]

Leave my country, please. That includes the future gangbangers you got at home.

[AppyPappy]

No agenda here /sarcasm

[Rakkasan1]

so they're from Dumass?

[3AngelaD]

We really need to do something about birthright citizenship so these children can be reunited with their parents in Mexico.

[MinuteGal]

Boo-hoo, you've got me crying for you (not)
You broke the law and now you're boo-hoo-hooing, too (tough)

This is Rudy Guliani's approach to crime in NYC: arrest even the smallest offenders, and pretty soon everything gets cleaned up. The point about immigration all along was that we didn't have to deport 12 million. Just deport a few, and the rest will get the message; and put a few employers in jail, and the rest will comply with the laws.

[RinaseaofDs]

I think this is hilarious! This is typical of the MSM. Let's just blow past the whole 'Here illegally' part, and the part about STEALING SOMEONE ELSES IDENTITY.

It's all about the kids of the criminals that got sent away. Here's a tip, send them home too.

[Last Laugh]

When a parent who is a citizen gets arrested and goes to jail, and there is nowhere else for the child, what do they do? CPS.

If it's good enough for criminal citizens, it's good enough for criminal invaders.

[Doogle]

..they certainly don't have any worries about exposing their children to crossing a desert, or piling into the back of a non-airconditioned windowless truck do they?

[NRA1995]

"Their parents may be here illegally, but those children are American citizens"

Call me mean-spirited, but given the way we're being taken advantage of, that is the FIRST thing that needs to change! Beyond that, they can all cry me a river.

"If the (immigration) agents had been planning this raid for a long time, why couldn't they wait a little longer, like January," he added. "They spoiled our Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe and our Christmas."
