“I have the nerve to walk my own way, however hard, in my search for reality, rather than climb upon the rattling wagon of wishful illusions.”

Shermichael Singleton — Is immigration about sympathy or justice?
via The Hill
"We can all relate to the misery of those who suffer by imagining their pain: for example, the starving children that we see on television or the senseless murder of an innocent civilian. Despite being foreign to us personally, in both instances, we can all relate. However, despite my level of empathy towards their conditions, I am troubled knowing that our country is less secure because of a lack of border security. It is also disturbingly clear that those who come illegally have a complete disregard for our immigration laws."
