Because people will die. I try to imagine what Jesus would think
I get what Gov. Abbott is doing, and political theatrics certainly has a place in our politics. And I understand that the border states can’t and shouldn’t shoulder the burden for Latin America refugees alone. But he’s not coordinating with anyone and he’s sending people from San Salvador with nothing but the clothes on their backs to fucking Chicago in the middle of a winter storm with no notice. His behavior is monstrous and is inhuman. I can’t understand people cheerleading him.
“I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” I recognize that most people don’t think what Jesus would be like today if he were born into American society, but I’d he'd bet the way people who claim to be his disciples treat of the most vulnerable among us would disgust him.
