Thanks Joseph, I really enjoyed your thoughts. We are truly fortunate, but I'm grateful for the attention you bring to those who are coming to our country. Yesterday, I had an opportunity to bring my family to a local ICE processing center for an hour of reflection and advocacy. While there, we heard stories about scores of undocumented apple-pickers and flower-planters (NOT GANG-MEMBERS) being arrested in terrifying raids by law-enforcement officers dressed in camo and wielding weapons of war. The hostility and utter lack basic respect our country is showing these poor brothers and sisters is heart-breaking. I hope we, as a country, can wake up and remember what it means to live the values of love and peace that you're advocating.
peace,
Dave
