They made people see us how they wanted us to be seen, as a menace.. I now realize what all this has taken us to..now we ar all desperate for all of that we didn’t find and I do hope God helps us find..safety, food and a place to stay where them cops wont hit us and where the children can grow fine, not with a empty belly every day.. but casey, oh casey a good man, once a priest now a man who no one would’ve thought was some time in his life a religious man.. even though he scarified himself for the good of the fambly , by letting those cops take him away
