The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

More Religious Bullshit! Sanctuary in a Church!

First off, I have the greatest sympathy for most of
the folks who are in our country illegally. Of course, the ones who I am talking about are the ones who came here for a better life...those who have worked hard, have no criminal history, are good citizens, and so on.

That said, it's religious bullshit that they can run in a church and ostensibly, the police and ICE and such will not breach the churches' entry.

I did a quick search and thankfully, there doesn't seem to be an actual law keeping the officials from going in the church and dragging the person out. Seems there's a long tradition of not doing that. Yes, I could be wrong about all of this, though I don't think I am.

What we need is a way of doing something to help these folks work toward citizenship; however that would happen and however long it would take.

Then we have you-know-who still flapping his jaws about a fence. Ahh, now he seems to be trying to use money allocated for the military to build his fence that's not going to solve any problems.


Here's the article about the lady and her children living in a church.
