be there, and he was. she didn t make it. she was revived more than once, and her father was with her. this is terrible. it s just terrible. it hurts. it hurts because we re allowing it to happen. don t demonize people working on the border with false allegations. don t demonize those desperate enough to do something like this father did for his daughter from guatemala. walls matter. but this staire-down between th presidents and the democrats is a deadly distraction. it s not a single-issue problem. we re not a wall away from safety. this system is killing people. the rules allow a flow that the agencies cannot handle. there is desperation on both sides of this. change is a must. we will see more of this. i hate to say that. i am not an alarmist. god forbid i m right, but there s no other reasonable conclusion. if you can t accommodate the flow and people are desperate enough to come any way they can, you re going to have more extreme situations.
