Do you really care about how he got enlightened? He got there. And his remarks were public. So, he will not be doing other things. And he's a freaking Sheriff.

This is exactly what we need. It's a shame that such a tragedy occured, but when he saw Mexicans risk their own lives to save his world, he responded appropriately. He saw more response from Mexicans than from Pam Bondi. That's not lost on him.

I understand how you feel, and I will be disappointed if he falls back to wicked ways, but everytime he looks at his family, he's going to remember. He has a path forward that may not be easy for him, but he's another brick in the wall. We all learn. This was a tough lesson to learn, but give him a chance to go forth and do no more harm.

"From this day forward..." ICE is going to eff with him, because this will get back to the evil Orange Turd. It's like he's declared a sanctuary city.

I think this is all good, kinda Biblical. Oh, I know you don't want to hear that. And no, I'm not saying the flood was good. But, somewhere on the road to Damascus...
