So much for ‘they were brought here through no fault of their own. I guess promoting the dream act is popular these days.

About 7 of every 10 individuals under 18 years of age, who were apprehended by U.S Border Patrol last year -- 16,067 individuals -- were unaccompanied, according to the latest federal statistics.....Most of the these apprehensions occurred along the U.S.-Mexico border, which is also where most illegal cross-border activity takes place

They saw it coming.

President Barack Obama announced Friday that he will be bypassing the House of Representatives and the Senate and grant de facto amnesty to tens of thousands of illegal alien under the age of 30 with the stroke of his pen on an “executive order," he may or may not have miscalculated the anger that his action would ignite, according to several lawmakers, heads of non-governmental agencies and law enforcement officials

So what do they do once they get here? Are their parents just dropping them off at the border and hoping for the best? Even if I lived somewhere that was really terrible I wouldn't just send my kids off on their own to another country!
