The U.S. Is Tear Gassing Toddlers At The Border - Duration: 4:49.

Over the weekend, agents for the US Customs and border patrol began shooting canisters

of tear gas from the United States border into Mexico, targeting women, children, toddlers,

infants, and everyone else in those areas.

A lot of the right wing responses that we have seen from this is that it's not the women

and children.

Those are very few in that massive crowd.

Most of this is angry men coming to the United States because they hate President Trump and

they hate the United States.

So they're coming here according to right wingers on, uh, social media.

Um, first of all, no truth to that whatsoever.

You can see the pictures for yourself.

We've all seen them.

They've been going around social media.

They've been shown on the corporate media.

We see children screaming

after getting tear gassed by US Customs and border patrol agents.

There's no denying what's happening.

The evidence is there.

The pictures are there.

We know what the United States is doing and it's borderline a war crime to be using these

chemical agents against a civilian population.

I mean hell, even if we were at war, it would be illegal to use these under the Geneva protocols,

but that hasn't stopped our border agents from shooting these things at women and children.

I mean, you know, you think of the picture, the little girl, they're screaming, she doesn't

even have shoes on.

She doesn't even have pants on.

The mom is wearing what is obviously one of the child's shirts because they don't even

have enough clothing and we're tear gassing them.

In my lifetime, 35 years, I've never seen anything like this from the United States

on our own soil.

I know we've committed some horrible atrocities overseas.

I've seen the photographs from Abu Ghraib and all the torture that went on there, but

I never thought I'd be in a situation where I would see it come home, but it has.

We have in my lifetime, and I know things have been worse in this country, but we've

hit a rock bottom.

We have not been this low as a country since I was born.

We haven't been this low as a country since segregation or slavery, but that's where we're

at right now.

We are gassing children.

Trump has closed the border illegally.

By the way.

He does not have the authority to do that and we're committing war crimes were committing

crimes against humanity.

These are the kinds of things that if somebody else was doing this in another country, we

wouldn't hesitate to go invade them.

I mean, it wasn't.

One of the big things with Saddam Hussein was that he was using chemical weapons against

his own people and here we are using chemical weapons because that is what tear gas is classified

as.

We're using chemical weapons against children who are legally seeking asylum.

They have not done anything illegal.

Now, according to some of the border patrol agents, they were throwing a quote project

tiles.

So you think that a, a child, you know, even a teenager thrown a couple rocks are a few

sticks.

I mean, that's a reason to gas them and burned their lungs and burn their eyes and mouths

and noses and everything else because you got hit when you're in full riot gear with

a small rock.

This is insanity.

This is a police state and this is the lowest that I've ever seen this country hit in my

lifetime and honest to God.

I don't know if there's any coming back from this, the way the right wingers are defending.

This tells me that this is not going to stop.

Somebody needs to be held accountable for this and not the just the people on the ground

shooting these canisters.

Yes, they should be tried for war crimes and they absolutely could be under the Geneva

protocols.

Again, we signed into that and they're still doing it.

Any soldier that participates in that, even if they're just following orders, is guilty,

but so are all of the ones at the top who made the decisions.

There needs to be investigations, there needs to be prison sentences, and we need to show

the rest of the world that we're not as gross and dirty and deplorable as we're coming across

in these recent media reports.

Fr. James Martin: Why is the U.S. tear-gassing migrants? - Duration: 3:11.

- Yesterday the US Customs and Border Protection Agency

fired tear gas at migrants trying to seek asylum

in the United States at the border crossing at Tijuana.

How did our country reach the point

where we are tear gassing mothers and children?

One reason is because of the widespread myths

about these brothers and sisters of ours.

Myth one, they are illegals.

First of all, no one is an illegal person

and seeking asylum is recognized as a universal human right.

Current international agreements about asylum

stem from a desire not to repeat the fate of Jews

during the Second World War

who were denied entrance to many countries.

And one requirement for asylum

is to be physically present in the United States

which is exactly what these people

from Central America are trying to do.

In fact, it's illegal to dismiss asylum seekers

without hearing their cases.

In other words, they are trying to follow

both international and US law.

Myth two, we can't afford them.

Many people believe that the US and many European countries

shelter a huge amount of refugees.

That is false.

The majority of the world's refugees

live in poor or middle-income nations.

Eight out of 10 of the world's refugees

are sheltered by developing countries.

In 2016 for example,

Turkey, Pakistan, and Lebanon

hosted the highest number of refugees,

a combined total of 5.4 million refugees.

Of the 15 million refugees worldwide,

86% reside in developing countries.

By contrast, the United States,

one of the wealthiest countries in the world,

is allowing in only 30,000 next year.

We can afford to welcome these refugees.

Myth three, they are mainly criminals.

Claims that these migrants are criminals,

that this exodus harbors terrorists

from the Middle East are unfounded.

Are there a few criminals somehow mixed in?

No more than with any other group in the past

and that would include the immigrants

that came to this country in the last 200 years.

Italians, Irish, Germans, and on and on.

People fleeing Honduras for example

who are mainly women and children

face some of the worse violence, inequality,

and corruption in the world.

Criminal gangs, rape, and persecution all on top of poverty.

There's a reason that they're risking everything

to come here.

They are fleeing crime, not bringing it.

So before you dismiss these people as illegals,

as too expensive or as criminals,

please know the facts.

And even if you want to dismiss these facts,

remember what Jesus said about welcoming the stranger.

He didn't say welcome them when they had the right papers.

He didn't say welcome them when you could afford it.

He didn't say welcome them when there is zero risk to you.

Jesus said welcome them.

Nikki Haley condemns 'reckless Russian escalation' in first US remarks on tensions - Duration: 7:26.

One day after Russia fired on and seized three Ukrainian vessels in waters between the two countries, the U

S. is condemning Russia's actions in its first remarks on the crisis amid new fears of a dangerous escalation

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley blasted Russia's "violation under international law," saying it was "yet another reckless Russian escalation" and "no way for a law-abiding civilized nation to act

" She did not mention Russian President Vladimir Putin by name. Haley, who has announced she will leave her post by the end of the year, said that she spoke to President Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo Monday morning and that her remarks before the U

N. Security Council "reflect[ed] the concerns at the highest level of the American government

" But so far, neither Trump nor Pompeo have directly addressed the crisis, although Pompeo met with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin last week to reaffirm the two countries' strategic partnership

"I would love to see [Trump] tweet about yesterday's incident, and I'm looking forward for that," Ukrainian Ambassador to the U

N. Volodymyr Yelchenko told reporters Monday. Sunday's incident was a dramatic increase in tensions between the two countries, nearly five years after Russia invaded and seized the Ukrainian peninsula Crimea and began sending arms and troops to lead a separatist movement in eastern Ukraine

What has been a simmering conflict with occasional flare-ups of violence and over 10,000 killed seemed poised to break out into a new war

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko appealed to the U.S. and other allies Sunday "to coordinate effective measures to protect Ukraine

We must stand united!" "As my country's president has said many times, the United States would welcome a normal relationship with Russia, but outlaw actions like this one continue to make that impossible," Haley said Monday

Instead, the U.S. "will continue to stand with the people of Ukraine against the Russian aggression," she said, including through sanctions on Russia for its illegal annexation of Crimea

But she added that the administration expects Europe "to lead this effort" through a peace process known as the Normandy format, with France, Germany, Ukraine, and Russia

Other Western leaders have been quick to vocalize support for Ukraine, with NATO and the European Union issuing statements Sunday as events unfolded

Ambassadors to NATO met Monday to discuss the crisis after the military alliance's Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg spoke to Ukrainian President Poroshenko

U.S. Ambassador to NATO Kay Bailey Hutchison attended that meeting, a U.S. official told ABC News

While Haley said the U.S. would stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, there was no indication yet that the U

S. would take any new steps to penalize Russia for the aggression. During the U.N

Security Council session, Ukraine's ambassador called for increased sanctions on Russia

"The sanctions are the only real tool to at least make Russia start thinking of their behavior," said Amb

Yelchenko said after the meeting. But he did not say whether or not the U.S. indicated any support for that

For its part, Russia has defended its actions as a response to a "dangerous provocation" by Ukraine, saying the three ships violated its sovereignty by entering this part of the Black Sea that is shared by the two countries

Two Ukrainian small artillery ships and one tugboat were passing through the Strait of Kerch, a narrow waterway that separates Russia from Crimea and over which Russia recently constructed a bridge

As they attempted to enter en route to the Ukrainian port Mariupol, Russian coast guard vessels intercepted them, eventually opening fire and then seizing them with special forces

The two artillery ships were damaged and six sailors were injured, according to Ukraine's navy, with the vessels and personnel still detained by Russia

Russia said Ukraine engineered the crisis for political purposes ahead of its presidential elections early next year

President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin may meet on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Argentina next weekend

All of Us Research Program | Asian American Community Spotlight - Duration: 1:00.

The All of Us Research Program is

an ambitious effort to gather health information

from one million or more people across the US.

Researchers will be able to use this information

to uncover new, more precise ways to prevent and treat disease,

and to keep people healthy.

The Asian American community

is the fastest growing demographic group in the US.

There are needs that go along with that population growth:

healthcare is pretty central among them.

The majority of the people do not speak English.

So, having culturally appropriate services

is a must in our community.

We know we have diversity in culture, in language,

but we also have diversity in our healthcare risk.

Immigrants come here for better opportunities for their children.

You invest a little more now,

and then you get the pay offs in the future.

This is an opportunity to be seen.

This is an opportunity to be heard,

and this is an opportunity to contribute to an initiative

that may potentially change lives going forward.
