The Morals of Texas Officials Washed Away in that River

    Right on the heels of Gov. Greg Abbott's boasting that Texas is doing everything in its power to stop the flow of migrants into the country -- only stopping short of killing them because the Biden administration would charge it with murder -- murder has been committed.
   Allegedly.
   Six migrants were attempting to cross a river when the waters became troublesome. They were not making it across. A call for help went out. Border officials tried to respond, but Texas officials stood in the way, physically blocking them from rescueing the migrants. One woman and two children drowned.
   Murder? But, then again, who's counting? Who would count this as murder? You cannot fault the Texas officials, they were just doing their job. The migrants shouldn't have been crossing. We told them no and they came anyway. They killed themselves.
   You say it's not murder? Actually, ee have juries for things like this. We have a court system. We have laws. When this kind of thing happens, we hold people accountable.
   Or do we? Does it even cross our minds? Do we even think to arrest someone and to hold a trial? That is the furthest thing from our minds. All we can think of, is how foolish they were to try to come in to our country, dang invaders. We've got caskets for people like you. If you were seeking freedom, you came to the wrong place.
   Freedom? What about so much as justice? They lose their lives at our border while we look on, saying, It's your own fault. Their bodies rot seeking freedom, and we do not even offer them justice.
   Wrong country for that.
   Where are the morals of our nation? What has become of them?
   Texas officials are saying they found no bodies. Did they let them die? Prove it. There are no bodies. Where's the evidence?
   And, if the three people did die, what really became of their bodies? Who knows but what Texas officials didn't throw them back into the river.
   To rot.
