Treating humans like animals : Wed Jun 20, 2018 8:18 am  

The leader of the free world has now decided to tackle immigration by separating children from their parents and keeping them in cages.
Under what circumstances can this ever be acceptable and why isn't there worldwide condemnation for the world's newest fascist dictator, who has also pulled out of the UN Human Rights Council.

As soon as i heard this was happening, flashes of the film Schindlers List came to mind. A very dark day for a nation who fought against this 75-80 years ago

There is a world of difference in enforcing strict immigration controls and putting young children in wire cages.

As for the UN Human rights, although they may not be perfect, I'll take them over a power crazed leader (Trump) all day long.

If any of America's (or The West's) "enemies" were doing this, Trump would be calling them crazed lunatics and wanting to drop bomb on them and your agreement with THIS POLICY, really does make you quite special.
There is NO justification, in a civilised world for such treatment, get a grip.

My opinion differs to yours, I think Mr Trump is a strong leader, not a precious little flower.

Believe what you want from the propaganda press.

Propaganda press ??

I suppose it's just more fake news ? and yet "we" cry foul when our citizens are poorly treated abroad.
America and it's Leaders need to be "The bigger man" and lead by example and not lower themselves to the level that Trump seems happy to go to.
A clever leader can reach their objectives without resorting to such actions.

As I say, we disagree. Far left, far too embroiled in the 70's, lamenting the railways, Rover, Coal Pits, The Stone, Iron and Bronze Age, there are no Wooly Mammoths, fossils consigned to there place in history.

The WORLD is changing, keep apace.

Keep pace, it appears that you are the one wanting to go back into the dark ages when tyrants were allowed to do whatever they choose, without reproach.

It's the silent masses that give dictators their strength and it's oly when enough people are brave enouth to speak out that their power will wane.
So, you keep nodding you're head an allow people who may not be able to defend them selves to be victimised.
Keep your eyes closed and keep on crossing to the other side of the road.
You'll be just fine, until you actually want some help and then it may be you that is crying in a darkened room where no one can hear your screams

You can try and patronise me all you want, like you can keep defending everything the MAJORITY find unwelcome.

My eyes are WIDE OPEN, but keep trying to belittle me, it's funny watching a sad old soviet wasting his final keystrokes.

What am I defending that "the majority find unwelcome"
Are you talking Mexican immigrants into the USA or, something else ?

I'm liking the "old soviet"
