Families reunited...in Guatemala!
I love a happy ending.
GUATEMALA CITY (AP) - Donelda Pulex stepped off the airplane into the sun, clutching her 5-year-old daughter's hand and burst into heaving sobs. Fourteen-year-old Hermelindo Juarez hid his face as his father comforted him. Efildo Daniel Vasquez walked cautiously behind his 8-year-old son.
Quiet, confused and exhausted, 11 families who had been detained and separated after they were caught crossing the U.S. border illegally returned home Tuesday to Guatemala aboard a U.S. government-chartered flight that read "World Atlantic."
They were actually greeted at the airport by Guatemala's 'first lady' for their effort to break our laws. Also after being caught they no longer had to lie and most admitted they were not really refugees, just people looking for "a steady job or a better education for their children". Well, at about $10,000 each kid per year to educate, I say, stay the fuck out of here! We're broke!
