It should be the sanctity of life, not merely of birth. It should be that compassion does not end with the first breath but the last. It should be that morality has no borders, no nationality, no race. It should be that those who oppose the cruelty they see in abortion oppose the cruelty they see in their President towards the many who suffer unspeakable daily wrongs. It should be our better angels that guide our hand and our policy. It is not.
There is a terrible hypocrisy in those who turn a blind eye to the atrocities committed by Mr. Trump against Muslims, minorities, women, against people whose only crime is seeking shelter from the storm. To profess loyalty to such a man based on his opposition to abortion, if that is even a position truly in his heart, is to make a lie of those who would tell us of the inherent worth of every being from the moment of conception.
And for the ones reaching out to us, only to have their children literally ripped from their arms, like babies from their womb, they know only of broken hearts and of man's inhumanity to man.

This zero tolerance of ripping children from their parents is the most heartless policy. It brings to mind the Nazi ‘s separation at the Gates to the camps and ovens.
Surely, this will be dealt with up in international courts, and we all will be stained forever in history.
And that silly so called liberal theological Pope representing the Catholic Church in it’s medieval survival is not helping.

Any lawsuits on the way? Some of the child mental health organizations are suing Sessions for child abuse. Good case for that.

Could this be the issue that dethrones Trump.
No.
The children are not white enough for there to be sufficient outrage in America.
This is how the Nazis stated before they built the crematoria and the camps. Fortunately, we in America have a free press and a few good citizens who will stand up and fight against this most pernicious outrage.
And, if our Bottom-of-the barrel Attorney General bothered to read the HEBREW BIBLE, he would have seen that it says, only once, to Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself, but it says on 36 SEPARATE OCASSIONS, to LOVE THE STRANGER IN YOUR MIDST, BECAUSE YOU WERE ONCE A WANDERING STRANGER IN A FOREIGN LAND.
