You want me to be outraged that Trump wants to cut programs that would help homeless children? I am. Are you?
I am OUTRAGED that President Obama in EIGHT years never got rid of homeless children. I am. Are you?

So surprising that conservatives would actually say they'd "spit" on veterans who didn't share their alt-right Trumpian views.
That's not an answer. Show me an instance where any news organization wasn't outraged at a story about child trafficking. Asserting there's no outrage without any supporting evidence isn't an argument.
It should be. Aren't you outraged at your fellow Christians?
No, that's what it is to YOU. You don't get to tell me what I mean.
Oh well. You can always move to Russia.
How does the saying goes. Oh, yes, I think it goes something like this 'what is good for the goose is good for the gander'.
No can do, LOVE THE USA.
So do I.
However, my post was directed to someone else.
It depends on the definition of outrage.

Show me one that was.
You do remember when our soldiers coming back from Vietnam WERE PHYSICALLY spit on. I remember. Do you?
They did not 'say' they would do it. THEY DID IT.

It's a riot that they call it breaking up families.
I mean, we put criminals in jail all the time.
What do you think happens to their kids?
They certainly don't go live int the jail with their criminal parents.
No, I was a young teen at the time and I don't have a memory of it, although I know of it - and it was wrong then, and it's wrong now. Are you willing to say the stated intent now is of the same mindset and also wrong?
What do you propose should have been done? I'm all ears.

I also was a teen then and I did SEE IT done.

ILLEGAL immigration has been allowed to get out of control (thank you to PREVIOUS president), so, the solutions at first will SEEM to be 'horrible'.
The four pillars of 'rude' President Trump IS a start. https://www.natlawreview.com/article/four-pillars-trump-s-immigration-plan
If you have a river that is bringing everything toward you and your family and you know it will DESTROY you and yours, what would be the first thing you would do? Obviously, put a 'wall' as best as you can to stem the tide, would you not? You or I would not SOLVE the neighbor's problems first. Why? Because you MUST protect YOUR family FIRST; otherwise, YOU would be considered to be worst than an infidel, would you not?
What is being ASKED of the USA is to FIRST fix the neighbor's problems while their own is drowning.
I would be outraged if my children were being mistreated. As far as I have been informed by the different news outlets that has not happened. The children at the border are being treated much better than children at Mississippi just to give you an example. Where is our outrage about that? There is none. Not from the DEMOCRATS or RINOs or anyone else.
If I understand correctly by today all the children will be unified with their parents and I also understand that the Democrats are outraged by 'rude' President Trump using his pen exactly as 'suave' President Obama. Go figure.
I wonder what is going to happen with the Flores agreement.
Let's not forget 'rude' President Trump is going against the Flores agreement by using his pen.
But you didn't answer the question. Are you willing to say the stated intent now is of the same mindset and also wrong?
But you didn't answer the question. Again. You were "OUTRAGED that President Obama in EIGHT years never got rid of homeless children" and I asked you what you proposed Obama should have done about "homeless children," which are a different group of the groups (vets, etc.) you wanted to see more outrage over rather than the thousands of children Trump took from their parents.
So again: What do you propose Obama should have done about the "homeless children" you were OUTRAGED about?

annabenedetti, I did answer your question, every single one of them.
You reject the answers given because they do not follow your mind set.
There is a BIG DIFFERENT in me saying 'I want to punch' someone than me 'physically punching' someone. There are times when I am sure you get frustrated and you say things where you are simply venting and you really do not mean to physically do what your ears heard.
We live in an atmosphere where THE THINKING of a person is being questioned and not what the person do.
If someone say to me personally, 'I want to punch you', I will not take it the same way as that person 'physically punching me'.
I have a tendency of letting people say whatever they want. They are entitled to their opinion, exactly as I am entitled to mine. What is happening lately all around, not just here, is that people cannot have opinions.
The open debate of ideas are being squashed. I know, just yesterday, I said to my neighbor 'President Trump', I had not finished pronouncing his name and her color changed totally and completely. Me, I, and myself very ably changed the conversation because I know that there is no way that a conversation can be had.
Yes, I did answer the question annabenedetti. That you reject my answer belongs to you.
No, I was NOT outraged with President Obama. I was ASKING where was the outrage THEN where in eight years President Obama did not eliminate homelessness. I was not outraged with President Obama THEN because even if President Obama came out and said (like Roosevelt and Johnson) that they were going to eliminate poverty, I know that is IMPOSSIBLE (EVEN IF PRESIDENT TRUMP said the same thing) because Jesus said, 'You will always have poor people.' And, NO, Jesus did not say that you were not to help people in need.
Nothing. It is NOT the President's obligation to feed you. One of the reasons we have all this nonsense going on is that the government has taken over the job that the Church (all denominations) is supposed to do.
Again, annabenedetti, I was NOT outraged with President Obama, I was asking WHERE WAS THE OUTRAGE THEN from the Democrats, Republicans, RINOs, ACLU, NAACP, etc.
Sometimes I wonder if I am writing Chinese.

Well, let's take a look...

Someone's taken advantage of your trust in them.
So how are Trump's new policies doing?
Illegal immigration rises for third straight month despite Trump crackdown
Arrests for illegal border crossings rose for the third month in a row in May according to statistics released Wednesday by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
The hike shows more people are seeking to illegally cross the border despite President Trump's efforts to crack down on illegal immigration, the signature issue of his presidency.
The rising number of arrests has frustrated the president, who criticized his Homeland Security secretary at a Cabinet meeting this spring. Trump has also been frustrated with Congress's inability so far to fund a wall on the Mexican border — a structure the president said Mexico would pay for during his campaign.

So why is this happening? Trump cancelled Obama's policy of targeting convicted criminals as a priority. Resources that were used to find and deport dangerous criminals are now being used to catch and separate mothers from their children. With the expected results.
I can imagine you knew nothing about ILLEGAL immigration about 40+ years ago. I know of people (good people) working and then ICE coming in and taking them away as they has 'stolen' other people's ID and using it as their own (imagine stealing your ID 40+ years ago). So, from where I am sitting the government using its power to deport ILLEGAL immigrants was active even so many years ago as it is today. Nothing new under the sun so the Bible says.
