I love children, and like to think of myself as a compassionate humanitarian, but I have to wonder aloud how many of the protesters--regardless of what side of the issue they stand on--live four blocks down the street from the convent as Joanne and I do. Her Honor Mayor Miner nonchalantly makes these kinds of decisions (which are easy to make, seeing as they dont impact her personally). The Sisters of St. Francis have recently fled the North Side for their spiffy new digs out in the burbs. Again, easy decision for them to make. But, this is a done deal, and well see how this will impact an already fragile neighborhood, for better or worse. Once the buses leave and take all those protesters back to their neighborhoods (which arent affected at all by this) we, in this neighborhood, remain here. Well see. May God help these kids, and us.
