TO THE EDITOR:
Mr. Hardy,
I recall your past letters, and I must say this one does not shock me, because your past letters sounded like the ranting of the far right like this one, with their constant conspiracy theories in regards to our Afro-American Democratic president.
You can throw out your theories and claim this has nothing to do with race or his party, but we with the sense to read the whole story know better.
The children coming across the border and other immigrants are usually fleeing harsh living conditions; they are escaping to try to find a better life.
I feel it is extremely hypocritical of you and others to say it is okay to provide aid to fleeing refugees and those seeking a better life in other countries, and dissing the countries they are fleeing to for not wanting to help them, while you criticize President Obama and his administration for trying to find a solution that is not heartless.
You, sir, are very heartless to not bother to get the facts and to throw out accusations.
And by the way, the law you referenced does not even apply to these immigrants.
Most of these children, according to immigration officials, will not qualify for asylum and will be sent back.
