ICE secretly kidnaps autistic boy during bathroom break

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

Houston, Texas

With a 15 year old autistic boy - prime target for gangs - and a daughter.
I've had so many MAGA tell me crossing the border to Asylum shouldn't be legal, or if it is, it should be rare:

they need to be sponsored, like from a church, or contact the Embassy and wait to come here (through the two to five years of hoops) responsibly.
They have to really, really need asylum, because asylum is for victims who deserve it, not some poor family claiming trying to save their teenage kids from become throw-aways or forced into life of crime, or a mom and kids fleeing an abusive paterfamilias. They really just want jobs and benefits, most of them aren't really hurting that badly...
Poor people are supposed to beg or become criminals in shit hole countries. God put them there for a reason, so as not to infect us in 'Murikkka.

To MAGA and most American conservatives, the undocumented are just coming over looking for jobs and benefits, which causes an undue burden on real taxpaying Citizens. It's Harden's "Lifeboat Ethics" Principle - however, everyone using that principle to justify their racism, or selfishness, or just contrariness, always ignore the fact we could have the resources in place to reduce the refugee crisis and those "peasants" would stay in their home regions if not for the bloody selfish patronization of a couple dozen wealthy bastards and a few hundred greedy, sociopathic CEOs who want to corporatize the world for their own comfort or sense of control.

their freaking PARENTS that they've done so, for DAYS?!?

And this is apparently just dandy with the "pro-family" maga cultists from all I've seen online.

To any of you lurking, be you maga, or said fascist thugs, please accept my heartiest FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING FUCK.

You are EVIL, and you are traitors to the United States of America. Full-stop.

10. The damage

I worked with children and adults with autism. With children, just a slight change in their schedule would send them into a meltdown. Granted this children is 15 but still, depending on his coping skills and level of functioning any progress he has made in the last 15 years maybe totally destroyed. This makes me sick to my stomach. Could they not tell he was not neurotypical. It's unbelievable that they just don't care. These people are sad sorry excuses for humans. Gorillas have more compassion than ICE. They have damaged this child. The extent is not known but it could be massively devastating. Family needs to sue somebody cause their child is going to need lots of services if he is going to be able to return to some level of what's normal for him. I can't think of any other word other devastating. There just isn't a word in the English language that fully explains the damage they've done.
