Muslims Welcome

I've been crying on and off.

Yesterday, I burst into tears when I heard that dump was banning Muslims and specifically Syrians indefinitely.

Did we forget the St. Louis? The ship full of Jews, 900ish Jews, that the US wouldn't let dock here after they sailed from Europe to escape Nazi Germany.
The ship full of Jews the US sent back to their death by refusing to accept these refugees onto our soil.
Blood still stains our hands from that and now the US government has decided to ban the Syrians?!?!?!
Seriously.

A few years ago I asked God to break my heart for what breaks His and this was definitely a testament to that prayer.

I'm trying not to cry right now. This is such insanity.

And one would think kids would be able to come right? No. A House GOP and Senate Democrat sponsored a bill around WWII to let in Jewish children under 14 and that failed in Congress.

Congress voted AGAINST letting in the children.

So Congress has done nothing historically for child refugees.
Nothing for children murdered by gun violence.
And when Obama wanted to go into Syria after they started using chemical warfare on their own people, Congress told him they wouldn't back him. THAT is why he didn't go. He wanted to go. Congress said no.

I'm so unbelievably embarrassed by the president right now. He is unAmerican.

I really love the response of my fellow Americans.

The Americans at the airports represent the best of us.
This is who America is.
I, too, am America.
