To The Good People of...

While jogging in Austin a few days ago my daughter happened upon this sign.






I prefer to think that the people who thought this an appropriate use of their sign are well intentioned and well meaning.

For their benefit, this is what a concentration camp looks like.



This is what the inmates look like after years of living three and four to a bunk as pictured above, on starvation diets.








The good people of Austin's Faith Presbyterian church are quite right. Concentration camps do not make America great.

That is why we do not have any.

What we do have are humane detention centers for tens of thousands of economic migrants trying to game our asylum system and abuse our humanity.

Do you see any similarity at all between the children immediately above and those in the preceding photo? I don't either.

The people libeling and defaming this country, including Rep. Henry Cuellar, whose office supplied the picture above are disgraceful liars.

The photo below is troubling, I think we would all agree.

Since all of these people apparently know and understand the system, they know where and how they will be held while their phony asylum requests are adjudicated. They come anyway.

We do what we can to house, feed and clothe them because we are a humane and generous country.

If the lamentations of incredibly cynical people like Cuellar were real the wall would long since have been built and the invasion stopped.
