“But theres a sizeable group who know that the men and women picked up in yesterdays raids are not the “blood-thirsty illegals” some want the country to believe.

And that is their children.

It is reported that 400 children have been taken in by friends and extended family members in the Cactus, Texas area alone because their parents were caught in the raid.

Needless to say, yesterdays government action scared the children, of all ages.”
