Trump should never have separated the children from their parents.
Australia had 'family' units in detention centres.
If Trump thought the parents and the children should've been separated for a short time because of the vulnerability of the children, he should have microchipped the children and parents, and/or very carefully documented them and their parents.
Well that would've been better that what was done. At least the parents and children could've been reunited.
The cruelty was the point.
Bambi likes his cages offshore somewhere so he doesn’t have to look at them or think too hard about the conditions inside.
Not true.
He likes it best when they don't come at all in people-smuggling boats.
They = asylum seekers.
Nothing wrong with being a refugee or asylum-seeker. I'd likely be doing the same thing if I were in their circumstances.
But, you have to be genuine.
Application should be made overseas, or refuge sought in UN camps.
"For a better life" is not always a genuine reason.
ScoMo was instrumental in enacting 'towing back the boats' when Tony Abbott was Prime Minister in 2013.
It was the Left in 2008 who opened the floodgates again, declaring the Right's policy "racist and too harsh."
50,000 came on 800 boats...like a taxi service from Indonesia.
Eventually the
Left, overrun, drew a line in the sand, declared that anyone who arrived by boat after a certain date would never ever ever be settled in Australia.
Some of course would not listen, and arrived by boat...they were sent to re-opened detention centre on Nauru, and to detention centre on Manus Is PNG...housed in shipping containers....by the
Left.
Some on Nauru took the money being offered by the Right after 2013 and returned home...others went to America in that swap deal for suspected terrorists or something PM Turnbull negotiated with Obama, that Trump attacked but still honoured.
Now there are no boats coming, no asylum seekers drowning at sea, maybe some still in detention hoping for the Left to gain power again.Australia takes refugees from the UNHCR camps.
A nice, orderly, legal, refugee resettlement program.
