DNA tests of migrant children arrested at the US-Mexico border with their families have revealed the minors were not related to the adults accompanying them
"In these cases, they are misrepresented as family members"
A record number of South American immigrants have passed into the US in recent months using a loophole which allows those arriving with children to avoid detention and swift deportation.

This is known and was pointed out, Democrats refuse to address it.
In a pilot program conducted by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) DNA tests were being taken of immigrants who are suspected of arriving at America’s southern border with children who were not theirs.

I would agree on the surface, however, presuming even 10% are suspicious, 30% of that is about 3,000 potential traffickers every month. Taken in context that is a huge number, trafficking 3000-6000 kids per month.

Well the number is much less than what is being pushed by the misleading thread title.
Also, I'm sure that while that's a lot of kids being trafficked/abused/raped it's still probably somehow below whatever number "is too many"(a number we seem to never get told) that's needed before people address the matter more seriously.
As for numbers we do know, they have atleast given us one number. ONE, ONE single death of a child is enough rip guns out of everyones hands.

If Democrats take over, we'll be a sh'it-hole nation like Venezuela in 5 years. Migrant problem solved.

There's an even more frightening statistic than this.
Fathers have been torn from their families in the UK, mothers too. Splitting the family apart. I mean, the parents went to jail for breaking the law, but those families!!! I demand every criminal with a family be released immediately.
This will not surprise anyone with common sense at all.....

The headline seems a little misleading, if you read the article and see the quote,
In a pilot program conducted by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) DNA tests were being taken of immigrants who are suspected of arriving at America’s southern border with children who were not theirs.
In other words, their not saying that 30% of all immigrants arriving in the US with minors have been found to be unrelated... But rather that 30% of immigrants who were already suspected by border control of not being related to the minors they arrived with have been found to be unrelated.
It's actually a pretty low number when put into perspective.
It'd be like saying only 30% of people that are suspected of drug possession and are pulled from there car and put face down on the concrete actually end up having drugs on them.
