Immigration hysteria

I would truly like to know if it's a new thing that kids are being separated form their parents as a result of immigration enforcement, or if what's new is the liberal outrage.

Here is an article from the Huffington Post, heretofore not considered to be a right-wing rag. The article says that in 2013 alone, we deported more than 72,000 parents who claim they had kids born in the US.

Most of the deported parents had been convicted of a crime, but more than 10,000 had not. 10,000 families split up in one year, where no crime was alleged other than the immigration status.

If Trump is Hitler for separating kids from parents, where was the outrage in 2013? The article says Obama was getting some pressure not to split up families, but it didn't refer to Obama as Hitler, the left didn't go berserk.

Is there a meaningful distinction between what Obama did in 2013, and what Trump is doing now? In both cases, children were separated from parents, for the sole reason that the parents weren't legally allowed to be here.
