I know, a little late on this but ... better late than never?
Sean Buchanan was a liberal immigration activist
He meant well, but he was dead wrong.
Now he’s just dead due to a policy he advocated.
And now his wife has to deal with this situation alone.
(Five children)
Quote:
A man who criticized President Donald Trump’s immigration policies in the name of progressive Christianity was killed last week by an undocumented immigrant who avoided deportation by hiding in a local “sanctuary church.”
Sean Buchanan, a father of five from Colorado Springs, was driving his motorcycle on Highway 83 when Miguel Ramirez Valiente swerved into his lane and killed him. The immigrant was charged with reckless driving with a revoked license.
(After the crash, a close female acquaintance anonymously told ABC 7 Denver that Ramirez Valiente is “an alcoholic and an abuser.”)
Ramirez Valiente received national media coverage in January when he sought sanctuary in All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church in Buchanan’s hometown. Speaking from the pulpit, he told assembled reporters that he had fled gang violence in El Salvador in 2005. He said he wanted to stay in the United States to care for his wife and three children even though his asylum application was denied.
In a sympathetic report at the time, CNN said Ramirez Valiente was one of about 50 immigrants who had tried to avoid U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in a church.
The 2 links are from Aug. 9. This is a sad and ironic turn of events. I wonder who those SJW liberals would respond or react to the situation with Sean.
3) You could oh....search back in august for such a post.
In short, you seem to want to hand-wave this all away because it was a mere 2 months ago and thus ancient history.
Indeed, that is the classic line many a Democrat and the leftist media wants to use, as if the reality of the situation has less relevance after it is out of the new cycle.
Then again if the media wants to perpetuate a story, it can last many months if not years.
