Do you think that there is anything compassionate--when my colleagues on the other side of aisle like to talk about their compassion for migrants who are seeking to come to this country, do my friends think there is anything at all compassionate about a little girl getting raped in a stash house in Houston, Texas, as we speak? Or being driven up and put into the sex trafficking trade up I-35 or across I-10 in the southern part of the United States? Or trafficked to anywhere throughout the rest of this country? Do you think that is compassion? Do you think it is compassionate for a young woman to be getting shot up in a cartel warfare happening at south Texas, happening along the Rio Grande in northern Mexico? Is that compassion? Is it compassion?
