Ok, blame Biden if that makes you happy. Now what?

Replace biden with someone who doesn't encourage border surges, and stop electing people who do so.

Is "This" the utopia so many had hoped for? really??
Biden is doing only a little better than Trump on this one thing so far.

There is a much more severe crisis going on here -- a spiritual one -- for anyone that does not do "Love your neighbor as yourself" or 'welcome the stranger'.

We should worry not about just the worldly side, political stuff... but about eternal things.

We should try to be on the right side of this --

You also have to look at the practical side. What if 100 people showed up at your front door and demanded to come in? Would you be able to accomodate them all? Even if you tried, then the 1,000 or so that are waiting to get into your neighbors' homes would see your attempt and then join the 100 you're letting into your home.

What is going on now is not kindness. It has been cruelty to children and unfair to the people of this country.

Our president is a civil servant in secular matters. He is not our Pastor or spiritual leader.

That's right. And I don't expect a lot of help or benefit from any president. Not even one who in retrospect did several things pretty good and is underappreciated, President Carter. So, even the best isn't that helpful in terms of really helping us. Our true help comes from the Lord, and never much from a political leader, no matter their claims or rhetoric or stunts.

Not so much desperation but invitation from Biden.
1) Biden is following the same immigration practices that were being followed prior to Trump entering the White House!

2)Apparently "The Donald's" good-Christian would much prefer to witness the trauma of separating children from their parents or get the added satisfaction of just "unceremoniously" dumping under-18 children back on the Mexican side of the border - without giving a second thought as to what they'll be forced to do in order to survive!

3) Assuming that there is no less love for their children by parents in Central America than in the rest of the world, what does it say about the political, economic and social conditions that current exist in those nations, that would justify parents allowing them to risk crossing the border alone!

That's unfortunate. I believe we should. If we did things would be much better for all involved. We are not to ignore the things of this life.

Secular rulers are also of the Lord. Some not Good, others pretty Good, or very good.

Reinstitute the plan Trump had. It worked.

In 2019, the surge of illegals on the southern border was more than double that of 2017 or 2018, all occurring during the Trump Administration when the plan that "worked" was in effect!

It should also be noted that the number of illegals being caught at the border during 2019 was also more than double when compared with the last years of the Obama Administration when there was no Trump immigration plan and Joe Biden was serving as Vice President!

Did President Trump suddenly suspend his immigration policies in 2019 and issue an open invitation to attract illegal immigrants to the southern border, or was it the result of other factors beyond his control?

The 2019 surge of illegals demonstrates that despite the accusations from conservatives, the President in the White House is not necessarily the determining factor that governs the numbers in any particular year!

Year 2019 does not begin in October, look at your own chart. No year begins in October. Your chart shows the surge going up in January 2020. Mid January at that.
It should also be noted that the number of illegals being caught at the border during 2019 was also more than double when compared with the last years of the Obama Administration when there was no Trump immigration plan and Joe Biden was serving as Vice President!

Biden invited them in. Bringing up Obama is not going to change that. Children are suffering in all this. Your chart begins in the last few months of the years listed. Most of those years are a year ahead of what is listed!

Is that the major concern? Because they weren't doing so well where they came from. Which is why they are here.

Many of them might be here because they heard our government hands out free stuff to everyone. Or they get told that America is everything it is portrayed as in the movies. I've actually met exchange students who came here believing that to be the case.

Were they living in crowded cages or in concentration camps back in their own countries?
