When the Government Takes Your Children: John Moore/Getty Images/FOTO, 14 June 2018
Night has fallen in McAllen, Texas, a bordertown of about 130,000 people, flanked by the Rio Grande River. A Honduran asylum seeker — all of 2 years old and dressed in a bright pink sweater — cries as her mother is searched by U.S. Border Patrol agents. The next stop on their arduous journey — one that began one month and some 1,500 miles earlier — will be a U.S. Customs and Border Protection processing center where they will be forcibly separated in keeping with President Trump's new zero-tolerance immigration policy.
John Moore, a Pulitzer Prize winner and photographer for Getty Images (which owns FOTO), has witnessed the struggles of illegal immigrants for the past decade, collecting his often heartbreaking pictures into the book "Undocumented: Immigration and the Militarization of the United States-Mexico Border." But nothing could prepare Moore for this administration's inhumane tactics of separating children from their parents while their cases are adjudicated — a process that can take months or even years.
"As a father myself, it was very difficult for me to see these families detained, knowing that they would soon be split up," Moore says of his recent ride-along with the Border Patrol. "I could see on their faces that they had no idea what was about to happen."
During the course of his June 12th visit, Moore photographed everything from asylum-seekers rafting over the border from Mexico to agents chasing immigrants through sugar cane fields. Here, he tells FOTO what he saw on the ground.

Remember that tiresome little twit Stephen Miller? The obnoxious dweeb-boy racist toadie from Santa Monica who because he resented the less wealthy latino guys who got all the girls in high school "grew up" (one minute later) into the creative slime-mold who "crafted" that brilliant adornment of murican political history, the original Muslim travel ban?
Seems the family separation policy is lil Stevie's latest wonderful contribution to this nadir passage of the dying empire through its soulcrushed Now into its GREAT SELF DRIVING FUTURE.
You didn't really think Drumpfie actually made it up himself didja? No, "we" did it "as a people".
