It's so fucked up. Most of these stories go a little short on the reporting. I was interested in the minor's ethnic background (understandable to protect minor's privacy). Seeing that Tennessee inbreds went heavy for trump, fascism, and against The Constitution in 2020, I'm going to guess that a lot of these shady 80 types are also very vociferous in voicing their outrage at pigment diluting their blood.

This is important because they'll bitch about people coming across the border, and blame the President if he happens to be a Dem If he's not this time around, then pivot to "lib" cities or states. Why do people come across the border? For work, for a better life. I can't blame them, I would hope that I'd have the courage to make the journey if I were in a similar situation.

You made it across the border, now where do you go? If you are an underage, undocumented person, hell yeah, find some red state and you too can illegally do this dangerous job for minimum wage. School? Oh, don't worry about that. That's not important. We're trying to drop the mandatory school age down to 12. Teens should have the right to work full time, same as marriage.

Yet, whenever steps are made to address the paperwork issues, these formaldehyde-smelling, regressive, idiot Republicans bitch about too much gov't. Or the policy placing an undo burden on the business. If companies are people, they sure need to be getting the people's judicial treatment, and not the rich people hands-off bullshit.
