The U.S. Won't Protect You

Growing up, I thought of the United States as such a generous place that protects people. Right now, I feel almost delusional. As a result of my experiences, and having my eyes opened to the dark side, I stand in opposition to my previous beliefs.

So, when I read a story like this one, I am fearful. Fearful because there is no justice here. I hope that under circumstances like these, women are able to benefit; and that the U.S. gives more than the lip service that they give to American women and children.

But if I could talk to these women, I'd tell them to run elsewhere....and let us come with them.
