  • This is a two case : 1 - its not wright to shakle up women when their giving birth but 2 - if they dont have papers they had to be in their own country ? But they have rights to see its a two case ...

  • @bustacapinlutha lol. i have more heart then ypu do. i at least do something about the issues in this country.

  • nobody forced her to come to this country.

  • @mundkinder1 Maybe not.  But when Shit Hits the Fan in this country, may you be greeted at the Mexican border with shackles, you heartless arrogant fuck

  • there's a real quick fix to this, for the people being detained and for those who are so outraged by this story, FUCKING LEAVE. Nobody is forcing you to stay in this country, if all you're going to do is talk shit and slander the nation, we don't want you here either - get the fuck out. one way tickets are surprisingly cheap :)

  • God will punish such humans...They distgust me...I canot imahine what will happen on judgment day, do not sin and allow satan to hold you in tighter....How dare we allow these horrific things to happen..

  • one word HORIBLE !!!

  • thats some shonky buisness right there

  • As an American woman, let me please let me say that I am just as disgusted by the horrors from my country as everyone else. Growing up we're told our country is the greatest in the world and that we're so lucky to be be Americans. I now realize that's complete bull. It's only great if you're a rich & white. Everyone else get treated like shit here, and I'm not ok with it. Personally, I can't wait for the day I can leave. Land of the free...more like land of the brainwashed and oppressed.

  • ugh... the horrors coming from the US never case to exist

  • Wtf mate! thats janks!

  • Are you freaking kidding me?! Thats wrong man. Wrong.

  • this is horrible and getting out of hand. US pregnant citizens that do commit crimes. When they get taken to jail if they start to give birth you are immediatly sent to the hospital. They are treating these people like animals. This is wrong. Politics are getting dangerous these days everything is cut throat and the politicians that come up with these laws don't think about anything else accept keeping out illegals. They don't think about what could happen. Its not just with this. EVERYTHING

  • they should stop comng over here just so there kids can keep them here i feel like its a good thing they should do all of the women that way we need to keep resoures for the american people not the other they want n they should go about it the right way american are already beening flooded out .

  • The goverment treats the illeagal immangrents like they are abbondonded dogs. What mother would get up and run during birth? The baby would die because, as soon as the baby's head hits the floor, the head is cracked open, and the baby is dead. Also, why would they have a gurd stand over them wile the new mother gives birth. Just have the gaurd stand outside, and let the husband in. Why do they treat the people like this? They are still human, right? Come on America, this needs to change.

  • I don't want to live here.....

  • Yeah that makes no sense

  • The chinese have a unique way of handling this....post birth abortion.

  • I guess it would be ok with all the jackasses here, if their mothers were shackled and giving unsafe birth while some creep watched them. Its ok if the child is hurt, maybe he has oxygen deprivation and brain damage, or damage to his skull from the pressure of being shackled or other complications, buts shes a mexican "criminal" so its okay because she isnt a human she doesnt have basic rights which would be borderline humane. Right?

  • You knowingly cross a border illegally and expect people to treat you well? Derp.

  • @UnrealGlider I didnt know being unshackled when ur giving f**kin birth was being treated "well".

  • after hearing this i dont fucking... i...just...WHAT...THE...BLOODY FUCK!!!WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED TO AMERICA THOSE COPS SHOULD OF BEEN ERESTED DEAR GOD THIS IS WHY WERE LOSING THE WAR!!!!

  • America is so screwed right now.

  • That is sick. When you are in labor giving birth. It helps to change positions, get on all fours, arch your back, walk, lay on your side- ANYTHING to help the pain this is just cruel. And the guard can stand outside.

  • It's better than shooting them......

    A criminal is a criminal is a criminal.....

  • @bob1701a I don't think you understand the basics of the crime and punishment, but nice try anyway.

  • @iHacksorzz The only reason she is here giving birth is so the brat becomes a U.S. citizen and she can be sucked along for the free ride. Hence the term "anchor baby."

  • @bob1701a I completely understand that but once she is in labour then you cant do anything about it, if you are really "pro life" then you would make sure the child is delivered safely, its not the child's fault that her mother is taking advantage of the law.

  • @iHacksorzz Who said I was "pro-life?"

  • @bob1701a Thing is with the "anchor baby" it's a baby once the mother is fine after a few days or weeks do now the time the woman needs after giving birth. But anyways send her and the child to mexico. The baby doesn't fucking know the difference and it fixes the whole situation.

    But treating them as if they are sub-human is wrong, now if it is some really fucked up person then ok take caution and be ready.

  • its not any different than American Prisoners who are shackled while giving birth

  • Absolutely SICK.

  • Comment removed

  • WHATEVER HAPPENED TO FIRM FRIENDLY AND FAIR?

  • fuck police

  • that's so horrible!

  • good thing you brought up hannibal lector, cenk.

    MAYBE she's a cannibal who's going to eat her own baby. did you ever think of that?

  • Whoa whoa whoa, so let me get this straight. Corporations are now legally people with the right to "lobby" (i.e. legally bribe) the government, all the way from the President to the local city council, but a real flesh-and-blood person who is giving birth had zero rights? This is not the America I want to live in.

  • thats fucked up.

  • Love it hows there's racist fucks commenting below me so for example how would u guys like it if your wife of if you were a women about to give birth and were in her position passing through embarrassment humiliation and or just creeped out from the racist cowboy/hillbilly/etc. or like a Kat Williams or possibly a George Bush or ppl like that standing right next to you yeah I wouldn't to be in that position do I advice you racist fucks to go suck dick fucken faggots

  • if you asked her if she would rather give birth in Mexico,or the U.S. shackled .....I am sure she would chose the U.S......now she can get free everything and become yet another leech on welfare,while her kid grows up to join MS-13....wonderful..

  • I don't get it. They're obviously running across to throw down an anchor baby, so rather than shackle the poor women, why not calmly move them over to the other side of the border, get her medical attention, then smile and leave when she's done?

  • Thats why i fucking hate this fucking government! I would love to shackle there fucking wife while shes giving birth! i

  • shackled women in birth, may present a fear, and distraction, and an embarassment, that may make the baby be born sick or possibly pass away.

  • Stupid woman shouldn't have entered the us illegally. They should have locked windows and doors instead of a shackle though, but of course not because what do you expect of typical government operations.

  • what probably happened was 1 ruined it for all. one chick probably gave birth and jumped out the window or something, which caused a chain of overreactions leading to this. its ridiculous, but lets tell it like it is.

  • @elph98 Having a baby can make a woman want to do unusual things for relief of the pangs of birth....this feeling of wanting usually goes away once the baby is delivered....and is usually an exaggeration on the woman's part [wanting to strangle her husband or jump from a window etc.]... and not her true will. Just a woman speaking for women who feel this situation is disagreeable in nature [shackled labor].

  • Pls explain 2 me why corrections needs to act like a perv 2 prove they r justified in action.

    But when they would detain (@ least) a perv in sim behavior

    I do not understand the difference

    Pls explain

  • I would tell them to send me home I'd rather give birth at my home country around my friends and family not those assholes. I can't understand why ppl still want to come here and why I am still here!

  • Welcome to the Nazi state folks!

  • Wow that's retarded

  • Patriot movement = A nazi by any other name

  • This is immensely sick!

  • god bless im not livin in us

  • Bottom line whatever your politics are, and even if you feel you are entitled to view other people less unfortunate than you as sub-humane, just because you were fortunate to hit the birth lottery and were born in the USA...Doesnt mean you should strip a woman of her dignity, and not allow her to give birth in privacy...keep the guard outside the door...where is she going.. I pose a question, how about your Mom, wife, sister, get this treatment in another country...God dont like Ugly.

  • Why is it anyone is even defending these people?! If you don't want to be treated like a caged animal while giving birth... maybe you shouldn't enter another country illegally while ready to burst?! I mean really, it's common sense. We really need to stop protecting the stupid criminals. I hope her AND her anchorbabies are shipped back so we don't have to support her or her kids for their crimes.

  • @theaegis Yea, if you see a woman in labor and she can't produce her drivers license then you have to slap the bitch in handcuffs!

    I wish we could deport nazis like you.

  • @dffykvn Or she could just tell the police her name and have them look her up in the database Mr. herpatty derp derp. And in case you hadn't noticed she was already being detained when she went into labor. It's not like they dragged her from a hospital bed with half a child sticking out.

  • @theaegis There are people that get detained for not having drivers licenses or speaking english

    Hell even english speaking citizens get detained and deported

  • This practice is common across the United States, not only for undocumented immigrants, but also for women who are waiting for trial in U.S. jails, who are serving time in prison and jail. Only 10 states have laws prohibiting the shackling of inmates or detainees in labor. The Federal Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals have banned it as well. However ICE remains intransigent on this issue. I wrote the Colorado bill that banned the practice in state facilities here in Colorado. It's barbaric.

  • it's people like cenk and ana condoning the mass murder of all the people belonging to the aodiuoisdufousdfu race which really makes me disturbed.

    you can't just be harboring a prejudice toward a specific race.

    the aodiuoisdufousdfu race especially has had enough troubles as it is and it's just wrong to suggest that they're below human beings simply b/c they were fictitiously invented by me a few seconds ago as i sarcastically decided to write this obvious troll comment.

  • I bet this is done this way because those "government officials" are getting a boner from watching a woman giving birth while writhing against the shackles.

  • OMG is this for real!! I love you guys for bringing this to air

  • @mykidlets Why bother coming to America in the first place then?

  • I have given birth twice in the past few years. It is a pain in the ass, and hurts like hell. I remember feeling trapped with the IV in my arm. I couldn't imagine how this women felt, not being able to move or change positions to cope with the pain. The whole situation should have been handle differently. Sadly, this happens to often in the US.

  • don't worry America, if you keep treating everybody like shit nobody will want to go to your goddamn country, and you won't have to worry about any scary immigrants

  • I don't want to sound like a dick but.......

    Maybe she shouldn't be trying to get into America illegally when she is pregnant.

  • @JamesAColemanFan So two wrongs make a right?

  • @JamesAColemanFan ,,,Well you don't want to sound like a dick....But THERE IS NO DOUBT YOU DO!

  • Ok yeah this is bad, however, these people are here ILLEGALLY. I know its wrong, but what about the fact that these people are attempting to have Anchor Babies instead of coming over here legally? I didn't hear much emphasis on that at all for this whole video. How about people stop having anchor babies and they won't get shackled. They shackle prisoners/inmates who can't possibly run as well, why is this such a big deal now? If her family wanted to be there, then go have the baby here LEGALLY.

  • @DarkGlitchX Lets see, the rich blow up the continents jobs market with nafta, we flood their country with guns, we're the biggest customer of their drugs, our corporations are more than happy to hire them because a corporation could get away with murder....

    So naturally we have to fuck with them!

  • @dffykvn

    Easy ways to fix this:

    Hire Americans

    Legalize all drugs and tax them

    Make laws with stiff penalties against Corps who hire undocumented workers

    About the gun thing: Who cares? They don't have to buy them. We aren't the only country making guns you know.

  • @DarkGlitchX THANK YOU!

    Naturally those solutions are just too fucking sane for politicians to pass

    While those would work, I think it would be for the best if we spent all of our time and attention building a time machine to travel back in time and shoot the people who pushed nafta

  • @dffykvn BTW: Don't think I'm on the side of the businesses either, I just don't think this shit is newsworthy at all. Fuck all illegals. Come over here legally and stop making a mockery of our laws and our beloved LEGAL immigrants.

  • this disgusts me.america's government,police,federal agents, people like that should be shackled and be treated like dumpster dogs.even dogs are treated better than these women.

  • i mean she could have used the baby+umbilical cord as a weapon to bust out of jail.

    THINK ABOUT IT.

  • you only need one hand cuffed to the bed at max

  • Someone remind me what century we live in please.

  • i wish he would of pressed the DAAAKUMENTS sound clip

  • @publicatdamagnificen Wow, it must be nice to live in such a perfect world as yours, where all solutions are either black or white. Let me know when you finally make it down off of your high horse and back to reality where we can actually have a conversation involving actual problems. If you think the $200 a week a mexican sends back to his family in mexico is an act that justifies "treating them like conniving dogs," I would hate to think what you would do to actual criminals.

  • @start12poop You mean this:

    "...children born in the United States to parents who are not U.S. citizens (and not foreign diplomats), three Senators, including Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lyman Trumbull, the author of the Civil Rights Act, as well as President Andrew Johnson, asserted that both the Civil Rights Act and the Fourteenth Amendment would confer citizenship on them at birth, and no Senator offered a contrary opinion"

    -from the best source

    Read less selectively please.

  • Have you ever held the hand of a woman going through contractions?!? THEY ARE FREAKING STRONG! Definitely a danger that needs to be shackled

  • Its called "anchor babies" they believe that if they give birth to a child in the United States thier child will be citizens and therefore they will be citizens. We need to close that loophole. I do not support the so-called "legal system" but we should treat people humanely THEN send them back.

  • @wanshei You should do some research on that. I don't know if you watch fox news or what. You are simply WRONG though. The 14th amendment confers citizenship at birth, but you're not calling one of the bedrocks of our modern rights a "loophole"{not if you aren't an idiot}.

    Secondly, the parent doesn't get automatic citizenship AT ALL. When the child turns 21 they MAY sponsor foreign relatives, EXACTLY the same as ANY OTHER citizen. BUT, there's a 10 year wait on these lists. Look it up!!!

  • Women Giving Birth Shackled By Police

    yea, they tend to do that when your a worthless scumbag

  • The USA is largely responsible for the miserable conditions in Mexico.

    If you want to end illegal immigration, it's easy - HELP Mexico. It wouldn't take much.

    Instead, the position taken is an inhuman one - basically the expectation that real human beings will not do what they must to have a better future for their children. Yes, people are good about just rolling over and dying...

  • this story is like a corrupt judge dredd thats the police in usa now days corrupt judge dredds

  • Ok, their arms shouldn't be shackled. Their legs are not shackled together. One ankle is shackled to the bed, to prevent escape. Why? Because it's happened! You cannot leave a detainee alone in an unsecure area, ESPECIALLY with their husband. If their husband hit them they could sue the state for millions and you people would be bashing the officers for not being there to protect her. Stop being naive and consider that people in corrections might actually know what they're doing.

  • Welcome to America lol

  • @radicalawesomeness: ur an ignorant shit face

  • @corymassacre2: if he was there to protect her he wouldve taken her to the hospital for proper delivery instead watching her giving birth while she is fuming shackled for not having the papers!

  • @shiTballer

    illegals are not entitled to free health care,

    she should have given that a little more thought when she volunteered to have a baby in a jail cell

  • I feel like the guard is there for her safety.

  • She deserved id because she's an irresponsible bitch.

  • I wanted to like this one but just couldn't because of the topic. WTF kind of country is this?

  • @PlannedObsolescence ahahaha you're a funny guy, all of a sudden two liberals speak for mostly conservative America funny stuff man.

  • Land of the free home of the brave....

  • hey dont worry fellas this will be happening to our own legal citizens soon enough, to your daughters and mothers. and youll be sittin there like the fools you are screaming why. but hey why think about all that bad stuff? go back to sleep. GOD BLESS AMERICA! fuckin cattle for the big machine, except you fucks dont quite think as much

  • The only person I would shackle during birth? Casey Anthony.

  • I support illegal immigration. America is what it is because of illegal immigration. If people want to come here and contribute, then why not let them? And if an illegal immigrant commits a crime here, then send them back. Not really that difficult.

  • Another reason why I'm not proud to be an American.

  • @echecs9 Be proud to be an American. Be not proud to be chattel property...which is how ALL "citizens" 1 8 6 3 are treated. American doesnt shackle laboring mothers.

  • Americans don't see illegal immigrants as people which is sad

  • @CaBr0n76 That's a ridiculous generalization. Does it sound like the two people in this video feel that way?

  • @CaBr0n76 Correction: Americans don't view WOMEN as people, and undocumented women even less so.

  • They are criminals, they aren't cattle... but that's how this country treats it's criminals. This just shows people in authority have more intent in exercising their authority than being empathetic, hope they get suck with a heroin needle and get HIV. Maybe it'll bring some humanity back to them.

  • you need to have your arms free to put them on you knees to have a safer birth these fuckers need to be giving birth who are doing this to the women

  • Someone has to say it... poor fucking guard who has to watch the women giving birth...

  • PIGS!!!

  • I hope someday that newborn will be able to run for president of the United States of America (land of the free home of the brave...)

  • More American orphans…

  • I am 68 years old, when I was young most people liked and respected the police .Now these days most people hates despise and afraid of the police. what more can I say about law enforcement ,Police are armed and retarded they will hurt you they will kill you and they will get by with it. It takes police to have a police state. All police are taught from day one at the police academy to lie and put innocent people in jail that's why you cannot be a Christian and a policeman at the same time.

  • @KYKIN44 why can't you be Christian? Most religious people I've ever met were complete hypocrites. Sounds to me like they're more likely to be Christian!

  • There's only 14 states because for fuck's sake, it's such a stupid thing to NEED a law for. It should be common fucking sense.

  • this is a monstrous excuse to rob a woman of her precious birth experience.

  • Ten states now have anti-shackling legislation: California, Colorado, Illinois, New Mexico, New York, Texas, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia — and, Pennsylvania. In the case of my state Washington it took a $125,000 court settlement for them to see the light. There are so many horror stories that I would recommend an online search for the stories of individual women.

  • I don't support illegal immigration and support deporting all of them, but this is beyond acceptable.

  • Humiliation = power, Money = strength, America = the punchline to te world's joke.

    We are all slaves in this world, slaves DON'T BITCH!

  • Wasn't every person in America except the Native Americans an immigrant at one point?

  • Consider this: every single non-Native American in the USA is descended from somebody who arrived there without 'proper paperwork', and they are considered heroes only trying to better their future prosperity. Are the people criminalised here any different?

  • Comment removed

  • Is anyone surprised at anything conservatives support now a days. Next they be sending innocent people to death row and killing them..........oh wait

  • @bumfire007 the movie Death Race?

  • Sure it's illegal to enter a country without the proper visas, however, is somebody a criminal because, as if often the case, they are human beings trying to find a better way of life. What about Mexicans trying to escape drug cartel violence and poverty? Is it criminal to be such a person? It's certainly should be criminal to treat people inhumanely like this.

  • Don't those cops have anything better to do?

  • your bad for thinking America was good.. ohh the world these days :P nothing we can do!

  • I suppose it's not enough that they've got most of the rest of the world hating us. Let's be sure we get Mexico involved too by treating their people like crap. Idiot government.

  • @rabidabbey Maybe they think if we make it so that life here is worse than life in mexico, that they will decide to stay in mexico?

    We are already sold out to drug cartels... I mean companies, so we may not be that far off

  • this is disgusting. It seriously makes me rage.

  • Whatever happened to "All men (humans) are created equal"?

    This is just like in "Planet of the Apes" when they're claiming that the human doesn't have any rights because he's not technically an ape (and subject to ape laws and rights). Bullshit: he's an intelligent being with feelings, and so are these illegal immigrants. Treat them as equals you bastards.

  • anybody who makes a woman give birth in shackles should be shot in the face. this is completely sick. I am extremely upset about this. I cannot believe that they are making women give birth in shackles......this is so fucking sick. the people who are doing this to pregnant women should have their brains bashed in with a louisville slugger.

  • Regardless of your opinion of illegal immigration, a women giving birth doesn't deserved to be dehumanized like that. Shackles on a woman in labor? That's just fucking wrong.

  • @SPQRomantic I understand what I need to live and work in Japan. I need a 4 year degree in a subject, I've chosen to major in English and education. I've already completed my Associate degree, and I've began my Bachelor's degree this year. I know they have a 0 immigration policy.

  • This is one of the cases that they use the law improperly. Laws are meant to deter criminals from becoming repeat offenders, they are NOT designed to deter other people from doing crimes. Sure, they work that way in effect, but this is solely designed to set an example to immigrants, which is why it's so perverse.

  • Everybody who gets medical treatment while in the custody of corrections,sheriffs or police are placed in restraints.This whole issue of reporting on immigrants being cuffed and shackled while giving birth is for political reasons only.

  • And yet they have PEDOPHILES running around free in the U.S. and all they get is a slap on the wrist.

  • We're not only treating them as though they are dangerous, we're treating them as though they are sub-human!

  • ugh

  • @Ou8y2k2

    well said

  • The United States of FUBAR sure is an interesting place.. This story blew my mind like so many stories before it.

  • Our country is run by morons.

    Moron cops, moron politicians.

  • @TheGiantRobot No your country's not run by morons. Your country's filled with morons. Big difference

  • @TheGiantRobot They're not stupid. They're evil

  • @TheGiantRobot Voted by moron people.

  • @TheGiantRobot more like racists

  • @TheGiantRobot my mom is a cop

  • @glyn710

    So? Do you dispute what I said?

  • @TheGiantRobot And there are little moron pests like you in our country too :(

  • @Javis586

    We could use a few more pests who don't kiss up to corrupt authority. Hopefully we'll win our country back even with lackeys like you standing in the way.

  • @TheGiantRobot Lol hell no I'm not for the corruptness of the government but people like you think there is so many corrupt government officials when its just a small percentage.

  • Perfect example of how inhumane people can get. Perhaps it's out of stupidity and not evil, but it still doesn’t excuse behaviour like this.

  • If they give birth while in detention in America isn't the child an american citizen?

  • @emerice literally an anchored baby?

  • @emerice Good point.

  • @emerice YES! THANK YOU for pointing that out!

  • @emerice Yes actually, yes it is.

  • @GJNCA I was going to give you a major tongue lashing, and then I realised you are just a troll.

  • and this isnt cruel and unusual punishment? -.- theyre unalienable rights....
