Liberals wailed loudly about how wrong it is to be tear-gassing children. I’m old enough to remember when they were totes cool with setting them on fire.

It's because they weren't illegal.
After this mess was over, the local sheriff said if the ATF hadn't come in like an invading army, that Koresh could have been easily picked up in town when he came in for supplies. The ATF, the FBI, and the IRS are all too big for their britches in many cases.
Here's the straight dope on Obama's border patrol use of "chemicals".

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has used 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile, or CS, since 2010, and deployed it 26 times in fiscal 2012 and 27 times in 2013. The use dropped after that, but was still deployed three times in 2016, Mr. Obama’s final full year in office.

Use of CS rose again in fiscal 2017, which was split between Mr. Obama and Mr. Trump, and reached 29 deployments in fiscal 2018, which ended two months ago, according to CBP data seen by The Washington Times.

Border authorities also use another agent, pepper spray, frequently — including a decade-high record of 151 instances in 2013, also under Mr. Obama. Pepper spray, officially known as Pava Capsaicin, was used 43 times in fiscal year 2018, according to the CBP numbers (Customs and Border Protection)

Yep...that was under the Golden Boy Obama, but Trump is somehow the low down dog.

And Conservative Christians smiled triumphantly as they saw little children wailing from their teargas! The question is: was Jesus smiling too?

You didn't answer the question: was Jesus smiling too?

Why do you care you hypocrite?

PeterS

Hypocrite? A little projection I see given the question I asked! You can't answer, can you! You people violate everything Christ stands for and then you sit there and mock liberals. Do you think you will earn brownie points for that given we are more Christ-like than you...HYPOCRITE!

They were told not to come. They were told they will not get into the USA. They threw rocks and bottles at the Border Patrol agents. They put their children up front. What did you or anybody expect would happen. Your photo of a little girl crying does not look like tear gas to me. Especially on children, tear gas brings out rivers of tears and snot running like tap water. I don't see that on this girl. I think it's like the photo that showed kids in cages that was actually taken while Obama was pres.
How are you Christ like? Have you accepted His blood as payment for your sin debt? Do you pray in His name? Do you ask his blessings on the food you eat? Do you attend church? Do you witness to strangers? Do you study the Bible? Have you taken up your cross and followed Him? Do people associate you with Christ...say...on OPP? Are you suffering for Him?
As far as Jesus is concerned, look at the woman at the well. He asked her for water and she replied how is it that you, a Jew, ask me, a Samaritan woman for water? You see, the Jews didn't befriend Samaritans. Then, there's the Greek woman who asked Jesus in Mark Chpt 7

25 For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:

26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.

27 But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.

Jesus came for his own. Only after the Jews rejected Him was salvation opened up to us Gentiles through Paul. I can tell you without reservation, that Jesus would have no problem with America Protecting her borders. He will have NO problem when the time comes to judge all those that are HIS, then after the thousand years, judging those who rejected his gift of salvation. Which group will you be in?

Also, I wouldn't put MY little girl where she may get tear gassed, would you? Plus, Obama used tear gas 26 times in 2012 and 27 times in 2013 on illegal migrants trying to get into the USA, according to the CBP. I would imagine that Jesus would say exactly the same thing about Trump OR Obama, as He is no respecter of persons, unlike those who hate Trump ( which is NOT Christ like). Jesus said "render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's, and Render unto God that which is Gods" Well, right now, Trump is Caesar. Will you render unto Trump that which is Trump's as Jesus Himself said?

I did not smile at the sight of horrible mothers using their little children for the sympathy factor, putting those children in dangerous situations, just to get what she wanted, which was entry into a foreign country without following any rules. None of these foreign invaders were harmed beyond being uncomfortable for a few minutes. And we, as a nation, have NO obligation, legal or moral, to let unwanted forerigners inyo our country just because THEY want in nor because some are women nor because some are children. Parents, or any adult, that knowingly put little children in harm's way are totally responsible if the kids get hurt, no one else.

Why would Jesus be smiling at seeing people trying to break into a nation home where they were not invited? But, Jesus does expect people to defend themselves and their homes/families against invaders. I believe Jesus would be on the side of the USA because the invaders were warned several times long before they reached our border, but when they came anyway and tried to force their way in, the USA used nonlethal means to repel them. The invaders were willing to do harm to our citizens, but we did not retaliate in kind.
