    The latest I've heard is that Sr. Bustamante is not going to be permitted to visit the T Don Hutto facility in Taylor TX.

    Can you imagine? How does that make you feel?

    The America I grew up in is not some third world country that needs to be inspected by the UN to make sure we are civilized! And yet, this America is. And to DENY the Inspector access to the object of his visit...well! Words cannot express how I feel about this.

    Thank you very much for telling this story. More people need to know what is going on here in Texas.

    They came first for the Communists,

    and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

    Then they came for the Jews,

    and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

    Then they came for the trade unionists,

    and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

    Then they came for the Catholics,

    and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.

    Then they came for the sick, the so-called incurables, and I didn't speak up,

    because I wasn't mentally ill.

    Then they came for me,

    and by that time no one was left to speak up.

    This is what is happening here.
