We should not avoid truthful issues in hopes that they go away secretly. There is no rule that if the truth is offensive we must never risk offending anyone by mentioning it. If someone keeps sea lice or sharks a secret at your local beach you will be bitten. Do not forget the men who champion taking children immigrnts are Jeff Sessions and Trump. |

Hereabouts there are many workers from Ecuador and Brazil however the two Central American countries undoubtedly are included in the local population, judging from the complaints about coercion by immigration agents locally. |
