A sure sign of our moral decay
To the Editor: The headlines read — “Texas governor & others bus immigrants to VP house, and drop them in freezing weather.”
Probably the cruelest action I can imagine is busing and dropping immigrants into a violent winter storm with sub-freezing temperatures. On second thought, perhaps nailing them to die on a cross is more cruel. But we’re getting there.
Perhaps Christmas Eve was chosen so the senders could enjoy their sumptuous Christmas dinner while watching less fortunate (therefore, I suppose, less worthy) folks freeze to death.
Much has been written about the moral decline of our nation. And I agree. However, issues like transgender and LGBTQ are often brought up as a red herring to distract people from other major issues like gross inequality and racial discrimination. These are major indications of our moral decline. The recent busing, political stunt being but one example.
