Meanwhile, last night in Hudson, hundreds of people, most immigrants to Hudson of one sort or another, gathered in the subfreezing cold at the Hudson Islamic Center to show solidarity and support for Hudson's immigrant communities.

The Register-Star quoted a vigil organizer saying that "This executive order is cruel, inhumane, and needless."
ReplyDeleteI agree, and we can be sure that Judge Robarts agrees too.
But the judge's ruling - which must be based on law - really is ridiculous. Anyone who believes there's a Constitutional issue engaged here, or any issue with statutory law, is either delusional or trying to attract attention.
In view of such an absurd claim, calling Judge Robarts a "so-called judge" is perfectly apt, if a little coarse.
It was wise of the R-S journalist, Victoria Addison, to avoid the legal angle and its predictable political overreach. The protest itself, which the overreach will only injure, is well-founded on a cultural basis alone.
In times like these, I wish I were in Hudson and out there with everyone - looks like this was a wonderful demonstration
