Mr. Abbott: they were not "illegal immigrants." They were children....and parents who were lying on top of their children to take the bullets, instead of saving themselves, and as a result died protecting them. In other words, they were true American heroes. They came to America to give their children better lives--what we all want for our children, and ended up dying to protect that dream for them.
If you want a better quote than one that dismisses these people as being "illegal," here is one from Jesus, in the Beatitudes:
"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted."
So, we offer a blessing to their hearts, and to their families. We wish we could do more.
