This lady makes a rather good point. A significant number of these kids coming here and crossing the border are doing so as refugees, not illegal immigrants. We do have some responsibility towards refugees and should see to caring for them properly. We are always quick to force others to take in refugees across the globe, but not often do we do it here in the US. The system needs ramping up to determine who's an actual refugee and who's not. Then we can deal with them properly. Refugees always remember being taken in and make pretty good citizens in time. This is something we need to address and right quickly. The house and the senate need to get their heads out of their asses and move. Immigration as a whole they won't address in anything approaching a timely manner, but this is different.
