ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: A national crisis
Our Panhandle, a rather unique shape, is a beautiful part of this world. One of the primary reasons is our people who call this land home. My experience living here since 2001 is that folks are glad to be right here. People here are chill. They like/want to be here. As we grow, we welcome those who want to embrace who we are and what we have to offer. Take time to listen and assimilate.
Yet, when our elected sheriff, Robert Norris, held his most recent town hall he heard that illegal immigration was their No. 1 concern. I, frankly, was surprised to read that. The 2,000-mile border with Mexico is indeed porous, like the sieve used by Danaides. It has become a crisis for our entire country. We have, fortunately, not been impacted to the extreme degree of our southern states. This invasion has ruined much of their world. The images broadcast across the web our heartbreaking. Will our Panhandle soon be impacted by this invasion of young men? Maybe.
