How people _feel_ about a picture or video is not a valid argument against rule of law.
My spouse is a legal immigrant. Following the rules, and contributing positively (as opposed to breaking the law and joining welfare rolls) yielded a green card.
It doesn't matter if you feel bad for the child. It doesn't make what the parents did legal or right. The real tragedy is that the child's parents broke the law to come here and the child is paying part of the cost.
The immigration debate hasn't caught up to the maturity of the gun control debate, where the left is at least no longer (really) surprised when nobody changes their minds after a school shooting. But it'll get there. Once people realize where the butter is on their bread (or where the cyanide is on the bread), you're not going to change their minds with Hollywood productions and media campaigns.
