Seems like you've been doing most of the talking about sending them home, so why isn't the blood on your hands?

All I ever promoted was a fair trial in a fair amount of time without being mistreated in the meantime.

We grabbed these people and that means we now have the responsibility of doing the right thing by them. For some I assume that means incarceration. For others that would mean sending them home. For still others, it would mean letting them find a host country.

Just because you're tired of the situation doesn't mean that you get to make a bulk decision for individuals.

Oh, and the last I checked my heart is just fine.
