Saturday

greetings from the bywater

the national guard does not have to be entirely negative. many of them live and work here, and if we treat them like they are almost long lost relatives "close to home" they may even decide whose side they are on. anyway, i was happy to have them after katrina.

the masked immigration agents, on the other hand ...

we are a city and a neighborhood of immigrants. i want to tell these guys to treat our people humanely
