Felinda Williams couldn’t make herself go to court on a recent morning, couldn’t bring herself to look at the man accused of driving drunk and killing her daughter, her son-in-law and her 2-year-old grandson.Many families share Ms. Williams' pain. Many families whose loved ones would still be alive today if not for a pourous border, hamstrung law enforcement agencies, "sanctuary cities", and a Congress that is in the back pocket of companies that want cheap labor.
She knows few details of the Aug. 11 crash in Houston that killed the newlyweds and the little boy nicknamed “Peanut Butter.” She does know that her daughter didn’t die on impact. The young woman, according to reports, felt the flames and begged helpless bystanders to pull her free.
The grieving woman knows two things about Juan Felix Salinas, the man charged in connection with their deaths: She knows his name, and she knows he was in the U.S. illegally, out on bail after an earlier arrest.
“He’s been through the courts and the jail before, and nobody caught it,” Williams said. “If they’d caught it, he would have been in jail or deported, and then he wouldn’t have been out there on the streets, and my babies would still be alive.”
UPDATE: As one of her commenters (englishqueen01)pointed out:
Does this mother have the absolute moral authority liberals bestow on their own whenever tragedy befalls them?
