They did this with no real means to reunite them.
They announced that DNA testing will be used to try to search for parents and connect them with their children.
I suppose this is a step in the right direction.
But separating kids from their parents without a plan or means to rejoin them?
This would be less monstrous if
- They had put RFID chips under the kids scalp.
- They had clipped livestock ID tags to the kids ears.
- They had tattooed a number on the inside of the kids forearms.
But no. They didn't bother to keep track.
They are just brown children of brown people and not worth the effort to track.
The people who took care of the kids after separation seem to have some level of morals. Most of them, not all.
The demonizing of "others" like immigrants and Muslims is a tool of fascism. This whole immigration "debate" is nothing but fascist theater. Immigration isn't a problem in the US. We need the people, we assimilate immigrants better than any nation in the world. The fears of crime and job loss to immigrants is not based on evidence.
But the fascists need a target because they've got nothing else.
