These people come here of their own accord and think that just because they are here illegally, they have a right to be here period. Its high time for the federal government to let them know other wise. Ice needs to just go into that church and take this woman by force and ship her back to Mexico. This is just getting to be too much.

I came across this beautiful piece of writing. There is a picture of the church if someone can post it. Stick with it -at the end it states;
Elvira and Flor, Flor and Elvira, they are strong, they are brilliant, they are fighters...but they are two. We need more.
Does it sound familiar? Denied a name (illegal!). Broken by the injustice of the law (is illegal!).
Last week, Flor Crisostomo cried, "sanctuary!" Filling the vacancy left by Elvira Arellano, Crisostomo took up her hiding place within the modest hole-in-the-wall Adalberto United Methodist Church in Chicago. Crisostomo is originally from Mexico. She is here illegally (she is not illegal). She came to the U.S. seven years ago when, jobless and with no prospects of finding a job, she had no way to feed her three children. She left them with her mother and paid a coyote to take her across the border, where he deposited her in the desert. She lives on a few hundred dollars a month, sending most of her salary home to her children.
Another poor girl seeking sanctuary, this time of the more real kind, made of brick and glass. Through her act of bravery, she can show that the migrant community cannot be menaced or removed as long as we're willing to protect those within it. If she can make it, she can be the next significant note struck in the song of this movement. The first, of course, being this. A pattern is slowly forming. I talked about patterns recently in a comment on Citizen Orange. One of the most discouraging things about fighting for something you believe in is that it is a process. An unknown process. We can look back at previous processes and watch how they fall together step by step, continuously progressing, and it's all very clear. But the perception is not the reality, and no fight has ever progressed neatly nor clearly, and least of all to those who are within it and don't have the privilege of hindsight. Something to remember, then, but even so we can look back in this short history and see something streaking along.
It being black history month, and with Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday having just passed, this quote is making the rounds:
One who breaks an unjust law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
This idea of civil disobedience is being played out at its purest among these two young women, Elvira and Flor, who are acting in defiance of the status quo. This is not a march, or a demonstration, but an act which poses an actual bodily risk to them. This is not a few days in jail, it is the possibility of a life behind walls. It's bravery.
I've been struggling with this bravery myself. Wondering what I would be willing to sacrifice. What I could lose. And it's something I'm terribly afraid of. The idea of losing what little I have and possibly achieving nothing, it terrifies me. I mean, I have a kid, I have a job...but don't they? This fear I have, I don't think it's just me that has it. It's something we all have. Something we need to overcome in order to hit the next note. Elvira and Flor, Flor and Elvira, they are strong, they are brilliant, they are fighters...but they are two. We need more.
So what to do?

She's going to sell crafts to get by.

I don't consider promiscuity and "out of wedlock birth" to be a "craft".

If there are no jobs in Mexico, then why did she have 3 kids? Is it any wonder poverty rates are so high in third world countries?

brings up a good point
Maybe our goverment should be sending millions of condom to south america, instead of billions of tax payers money. The results may be better, if any of them can read.
