What's the point in arguing about what-ifs? The children were deported. In real life. There's no need for hypothetical scenarios, focus on the actual point of the article and thread.
- miltonlost 1y ago> What's the point in arguing about what-ifs? The children were deported. Anyone arguing in what-ifs agrees with the deportation but can't be that blatantly racist on here. Ignoring this specific case allows them to muddy the waters. Anyone playing Devil's Advocate consistently are usually part of the devil's party.
- rdtsc 1y ago> The children were deported. In real life. I am not sure what you're arguing for? Take the children away in real life and hand off to a random foster family. Sometimes they can stay with aunts or uncles. Sometimes there are no aunts or uncles. > There's no need for hypothetical scenarios, focus on the actual point of the article and thread. Ok, so what should we discuss about the article? To help the conversation move along it's easier to say "here is what I think" as opposed to tell someone "don't think or say that!" and leave it a that.

- rdtsc 1y agoWhat about the mother? Do we know if she wanted the child to come with her or stay?
- SauciestGNU 1y agoThat's where court proceedings to establish custody would be necessary. But regardless, it's illegal to deport a citizen, especially to a third country where they are not a citizen.
