What if you woke in the morning and you were standing on the
Mexican-American border and you saw 100s of children from the ages of 3
- 13 from Central America heading toward you across the border? What
would you do?
1. Put them in an empty warehouse in L.A.
2. Forbid the press or members of congress to visit them.
3. Turn them over to Catholic priests at a seminary.
4. Herd them all into a concentration camp in the desert to live in tents.
5. Give them food water, a bed, a room, clothing, a shower, a lawyer
and medical care.
6. Arrange a photo-op with Barack Obama.
7. Do nothing.

What if you woke up one morning and the U.S. was being invaded by

What if they were refugees? What if they were frightened mothers and
children? What if they were minors fleeing drug gangs and sexual
predators to join their mothers? What if they were asking for asylum
from terrorists?
What would you do?
1. Just shoot them?
2. Do nothing?
3. Ignore them?
4. Detain, arrest and put them in jail?
5. Let them lose on the streets?
6. Load them on a bus and send them all back to Tijuana and shout "Go
back to where you came from! USA! USA!"
7. Load them on a plane and fly them down to Central America.
8. Let one stay in your home.
9. Give them shelter and food to eat and help them get a lawyer.
10. Send in SWAT teams to root out and rip babies out of their
mother's arms.
11. Blame the President and the U.S. Congress.
12. Demand that the federal government secure the border.
13. Demand that the federal government pay all expenses to house them.
14. All of the above.

What if you found out that the children were trying to join their
parents in the U.S.? And, what would you think about deporting
thousands of refugee children back to Central America?
What if you found out that U.S. SWAT teams were going into homes and
ripping children from their parents and sending them back home alone?
According to to U.S. law, a child seeking asylum in the U.S. cannot
be deported. Go figure.
"It's a huge humanitarian crisis that is testing the leadership
skills of President Barack Obama and the capacity of agencies charged
with controlling our borders and dealing with asylum requests."
