Forums - Politics - 5 Year Old Child Labeled as Potential Threat to the USA (Handcuffed)

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/donald-trumps-team-says-5-9725070

I know, we shouldn't create a thread for each single news regarding Trump, but seriously? Common sense was banned aswell as it seems.

That kid was held handcuffed for 5 hours?

"The White House says a five-year-old boy was held for five hours and reportedly handcuffed because he could have been a “threat” to the United States."

Is this true?

Welcome to America, kid...wait.. he already is an US citizen.

"The plight of the 5-year-old who was reportedly handcuffed and detained sparked immediate protest, especially after Senator Chris Van Hollen identified the boy as a U.S. citizen who lives with his family in Maryland."

But looking at google, there were several 5 year old children handcuffed in the past for various reasons. 5 year old children must be in the top 10 threats to the USA.

I don't know.

IMO it sends the wrong message worldwide, but wanna like to hear your opinion on this one.

Good luck Americans it's going to be some 4 years provided Trump survives that long.



If this is true, it just goes to show what a racist, fascist xenophobe this president is.

What if he stay for 10 years lol 



Ah yes. That "five year old boy" is actually Babyface McGillicuddy--the legendary hitman. He keeps slipping through the cracks. We almost got him. Damn.

Finally some common sense, kids killed more people in USA than terrorists did last year.

Oh and don't blame this on Trump, it's not like they phoned him up and said "we got a five year old here, shall we handcuff him?". That's not on him, it's on the individuals that dealt with the situation and screwed it up.

Then maybe the President should recognize it as a screw-up? His Press Secretary Sean Spicer doesn't seem to think there were any issues with it.

"If they are a five year-old, that maybe they're with their parents and they don't pose a threat, but to assume that just because of someones age or gender or whatever, that they don't pose a threat, would be misguided and wrong."

No... if a five year-old doesn't have a bomb strapped to him I think it's safe to assume he does not pose a threat. 

I think handcuffing a five-year-old for five hours is misguided and wrong.

So umm... pretty obvious question but where were the kids parents? Why weren't they with him?

Who knows what happened to the parents.

Yes, this is not directly on Trump. There seem to be a lot of chaos at the airports thus we see a lot of people being handcuffed like students and such. But this method is still being defended, so....
