  First, because they believe they have authority to investigate the legitimacy of allegations under an archaic 2000 year old “two witnesses” policy.

  Second, convictions in criminal courts bolster civil litigations which costs WT money.

  Not every location mandates reporting. Where it is not they won’t. Even where reporting is mandated they do not do it with full transparency. Elders may be instructed to contact law enforcement anonymously.

  Immediate reporting would benefit local elders. It does not benefit the WT organization.

  Their goal is not to spend money and they use outdated theological gymnastics to justify their silence. In addition to not paying out on lawsuits, those donations keep rolling in from the publishers, because the publishers also believe the WT policy on CSA is justified.

  alright, so what is the deal with the thousands coming to the states right at election time seeking asylum?

  i'm not up on this, usually try not to be, but how can this not be manipulative?

  it's either manipulative in the size of the group and pressure that creates, or in where it started or who started this, etc.

  The United States has accommodated 20% of the world’s immigrants.

  Its time to hang out the no vacancy signs.

  He will pay a $1000 fine, a few hundred for fees and restitution and avoid probation by throwing $50k at an attorney.

  His status as a douchbag remains.

  But damn he plays a good Trump.

  $110,000,000 to cover deployment of 15,000 troops.

  Who will not be shooting at anything.

  Who will be setting up tents, constructing bunk beds, installing electrical and plumbing, air conditioners, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, passing out decks of cards.

  Does anyone else see the madness?

  How can it possibly be a myth that illegal immigration is a social burden?

  Did you not read above what I posted as far as the expenditures made just detaining the children?

  There are currently @ 2,400 children still in the detainment process costing the government nearly 60 million dollars per month.

  I do not think these stats are biased because they have been generated by advocates for these children. Likely to get them out of the tents and into the fields, or school, or with therapists and social workers.

  Guess what? All that costs millions of dollars too.

  I know starving citizens, families living right here in Los Angeles.

  I’m certain that is something common throughout the nation.

  If we cannot help destitute citizens, why are we spending millions in detaining illegals?

  Trump is determined to detain many many more.

  All that cost; tents, air conditioning, beds, linens, food, water, medicines, court, on and on, being spent on illegal immigrants by a country that can’t help it’s own starving citizens, is a social burden.

  There is only one way to solve it. Nobody comes in until we get a handle on our own citizen plights.

  Until they drop their two witness rule in cases of child sex abuse and actively, transparently report every allegation of child sex abuse to the police immediately upon discovery, they can shove their bullshiting attempt to look like they care through flowery honey dripping words in their trash magazine straight up their ass.

  It costs nearly $800 per day per child in these “emergency” tent cities. Compared to the nearly $300 per day at the over capacity permanent facilities.

  It is estimated that 400 children cost 5 million per month.

  Previously the children would be farmed out to foster homes or relatives. That process could take up to 3 months.

  Now there is a bottleneck because people are afraid to foster, family or not, because vetting often leads to arrests of illegal relatives in the fostering family.

  Now we are going to hold every immigrant in the tent cities. No more releasing with gps ankle bracelets to wait 3 years for a court date.

  I don’t even want to do the math on cost.

  Detaining immigrants in tent cities, while they wait for court dates, is not going to stop the flow of immigrants.

  Now instead of them having to find a place to live and a job to pay for what they need, we are handing them everything, including their children that had been previously separated from them.

  This is supposed to deter them from trying to come in? Insanity.

  The US welcomes 1 million legal immigrants per year. 500,000 enter illegally per year.

  I don’t think the world can look at the US as a douchebag when it comes to accommodating immigrants.
