      By 2014, under the Obama administration, Homan began to argue that separating children from their caregivers would be an effective means of discouraging illegal border crossings.

      “Most parents don’t want to be separated”, Homan told Dickerson. He argued that this fact made separation an effective tool for immigration enforcement: “I’d be lying to you if I didn’t think that would have an effect.”

      The man is evil.

        If you ever say the words, “we should separate kids from their families as a deterrent”, you should be immediately shunned from society. Your job should fire you. Your colleagues, your family, your friends should all pretend like you do not exist. The entire community where you live should write you out of their lives.

        It worked WONDERS for early modern societies.

    DEPORTING Children of People TRYING to Immigrate LEGALLY is going to INCREASE our LEGAL Immigration and will NOT Deter People from Following our Rules! After ALL I’m ONLY Against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION and am NOT a Racist!
