24. Sigh. She SUGGESTED, -NOT- TELLING You what to do, for goodness sakes!..

And many, if not most of us here know the kind of shit going, or about to go down.

Now, we may not know everything that's going on at any one time, but that's one reason we come here to catch up on the news: bad, and good!

I live in a Hispanic neighborhood, not my first either. I dread that I might see some ICE stuff going like a block or 2 away. I even know (but not near me, I pass it if I'm going to a certain area) a church where immigrants were given help during drumphf's first term.
