The writers allowed their political views and lack of knowledge to write a story that is completely inaccurate. Unfortunately people who believe television are misinformed. Agents do not RIP children from their parents. People, regardless of whether or not they're illegal or a United States citizen, if they perform an act that is against the law, they get arrested. Their children DO NOT get to go with them to jail. If these individuals JUST WENT THROUGH A PORT OF ENTRY, they would NOT be separated from their families UNLESS they have a previous criminal background. If they have entered the US illegal previously, they would more than likely be detained and their children sent to a detention center. In addition, the last scene where those children are on mats, with the fences around them is when they are processed through the system when they first get here, NOT after. Is this sad, absolutely. Some people do want to come here to make a better life for themselves and their children. However, there are laws that must be followed but it appears as though people just want to cherry pick every law they do or don't like or that benefits them.
