Dear Mr. President,

I believe your so-called crack-down on undocumented people in this country is ill-advised and mean-spirited. That vast majority of these people work hard and pay taxes. They do not constitute a threat to the United States.

Oh, but your supporters say, “They broke the law!” Maybe, but as the chief executive you have the power and responsibility to enforce the law sensibly. How does it help me if you break up families? How does it help our country if you, e.g., send away the main wage earner, depriving his children of a father (or mother) and the love and guidance a parent can supply? We’ll be so much safer then?

As you pursue these horrendous policies, consider yourself the first Anti-Family president of the United States.

Yours in horror,

Bruce J. Berger
