I think what you are doing is conflating several issues to defend a monstrous policy. Nobody has argued that kids don't get separated from their parents. This is the point you keep arguing but it isn't what the uproar is about. What the uproar is about is the cause of Trumps Zero Tolerance policy facilitating extremely large numbers of unaccounted for children and kids that are ripped away from their parents.
Please stop arguing something that nobody but yourself is arguing and while I am at it I need to clear up other key points with yourself and Trumps other supporters defending this.
Look, it doesn't matter who else did this and when it was done even if Trump didn't lie which he did. The policy is monstrous. Others doing it doesn't absolve his policy. This idea that you and other here have that if you can show where Obama or Hillary or someone else did the same horrible thing it is acceptable is bat shit crazy. It isn't acceptable for any of them so why go through the exercise. Since none of them are president.
Lastly, I see here where so many people make this point. Well, when you break the law this is rightfully going to happen. If you have kids and were picked up by the cops you are not going to see your kids. I see this nonsense lately too. Let me start by saying what we do in this country. Looking for asylum is not breaking the law. Get that through your heads. They are looking for a better life for their kids. Like someone in most our American families did that weren't slaves. They are taking the calculation that whatever happens by coming to this country is better than the extreme atrocities in their home land. America has set the standard for when this happens. They are not necessarily allowed in but we do not break families as a matter of policy. It is inhumane no matter how you try to explain this away. We look for other solutions.
