The Is it not more cruel to have sent your child alone, across the border to begin with
This is a different issue.
Don’t you think minor children who arrive in Hawaii are mostly accompanied by a parent or guardian, on a plane, when they “cross the border?” Do you object to Hawaii reps protecting these minors with their legal rights?
There are no direct flights from Mexico to Hawaii.
Taking a recent example of ICE actions with teachers on Maui, let’s move it to a hypothetical on Big Island. A person in Leilani rents his home, all of the tenant’s paperwork checks out. The tenant moves out, he’s been gone for a year. You move back in. One day multiple SUVs pull up into your driveway, a group of unidentified persons surround your home, beat your door down, tell you to get on the floor, they zip tie you. You ask “what the” but you’re told to shut up as they ransack your home. You can finish up the rest of the scenario.
Afterwards, do you thank the ICE agents for their diligence in finding non-citizens, even though they didn’t, and think to yourself it’s an honest mistake, no harm no foul? Or do consider getting lawyered up?
Might not a 4 year old in Hawaii need a lawyer if subjected to similar circumstances because they might be as innocent as you are?
