Under the law, the Border Patrol agency is required to take in these children, screen and vaccinate them, then turn them over to the Department of Health of Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR). The ORR assigns children to shelters until the agency can identify sponsors and once children are placed with sponsors, their cases work their way through the immigration court. Earlier this month, Jonathan Ryan, an attorney with the immigration advocacy group RAICES, told ThinkProgress that the Bush administration “changed the treatment of how kids go through immigration court.” Ryan added that the law was a “recognition of the need to protect these kids and at the time, the need was the war that’s pushing kids out of Central America.”</p> </blockquote> <p>None of Caesar's laws are being broken.</p> <p><a href="http://thinkprogress.org/immigration/2014/06/20/3450988/republicans-unaccompanied-children-crisis/">http://thinkprogress.org/immigration/2014/06/20/3450988/republicans-unac...</a></p> </div></div></div> Wed, 06 Aug 2014 21:43:06 +0000 rmrd0000 comment 197882 at http://dagblog.com It brings tears to the eye to http://dagblog.com/comment/197881#comment-197881 <a id="comment-197881"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/197870#comment-197870">Theactual operation of the</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>It brings tears to the eye to see these little shoes. </p> <p><a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Revelation%2021:4/">Revelation 21:4</a></p> <p><strong>4 </strong><a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Rv7.17/"><em>h</em></a> He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and  <em><a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Rv20.14%3B1Co15.26/">i</a> </em>death shall be no more,  <em><a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Is35.10%3BIs51.11%3BIs65.19/">j</a> </em>neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”</p> </div></div></div> Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:57:28 +0000 Resistance comment 197881 at http://dagblog.com As you cannot find a http://dagblog.com/comment/197880#comment-197880 <a id="comment-197880"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/197855#comment-197855">So you cannot find Scripture</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>As you cannot find a scripture that says the governing authority of United States must be ignored or that Christians should meddle and tear down it's established laws that govern border protection or immigration laws.  </p> <p><a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Romans%2013:1-2/">Romans 13:1-2</a></p> <p><strong>Submission to the Authorities</strong></p> <p><em>13 "Let every person <a href="http://www.esvbible.org/Tt3.1%3B1P2.13/">p</a> be subject to the governing authorities.
