These are the people who are supposed to hate immigrants and minorities, yet they are the ones trying to stop immigrant and minority babies from being murdered. And, despite how this case may be presented, it's not as though they're holding the girl against her will and forcing her to remain pregnant. They simply told her that if she wants an abortion she must return home to Mexico for it. If she wants to remain in custody, the federal government is not going to play any role in facilitating the abortion of her second trimester baby. She could go home if she wants. She is not being held hostage. But this demented judge has decreed that she has a right to an abortion in our country, and it must be carried out without delay.
Of course, there's more at stake here than human life, although there's nothing else at stake that could be more important than human life. The Justice Department has argued that we cannot give pregnant minors an incentive to cross the border illegally in order to get abortions, which will often be tax funded. And these girls certainly cannot have a "constitutional right" to an abortion in the United States because they are not United States citizens. The best thing, then, is to get them the care that will preserve their own dignity and the dignity of their unborn children.
This is not only the legally and morally correct approach, but it's the only approach you can support if you want to lay claim to the "compassion for immigrant children" banner. If your compassion for immigrant children involves having them dismembered with a pair of sharpened forceps (a D&E abortion, which is the type this child will suffer at his stage of development), then I would suggest that your notion of compassion is rather insane.
