HOW ABOUT A LITTLE SYMPATHY?–We need to show more sympathy for these people. They travel miles in the heat, they risk their lives crossing a border, they don’t get paid enough wages, they do jobs that others won’t do or are afraid to do. They live in crowded conditions among a people who speak adifferent language. They rarely see their families, and they face adversity all day every day.
I’m not talking about illegal Mexicans, I’m talking about our troops. Doesn’t it seem strange that the government is willing to lavish all kinds of social benefits on illegal’s, but don’t support our troops and are now threatening to defund them?
