When I have time I will read that link NJ supplied. Thank you for the link If those stats are true that is surprising and shows my thought that we actually forcibly deport very few parents of anchor babies is wrong.
Of course it is sad when a family is separated but it is not the fault of the government anymore than it is the fault of the government who sentence people who are also parents to prison.
edit to note
This report shows the deportation of people who "claimed to have an American born child". In the report it mentions the categories of " claimed" and" verified". In my cursory look at NJ's informative link I didn't see any stats for removal of people with " verified" American born children.
Of course we can believe these people when they " claim" they have American born children.
After all they have been so obedient of our laws so far>
That said I am sure there were some parents of anchor babies who were deported in that group so I admit my thought that we didn't deport more than 100 actual parents is wrong.
And so to make sure families aren't separated I am sure the deported parent took their families with them.
