I spoke to Kendall Coffe, Elian Gonzalez' attorney, after the event. I told him that I appreciated all he did to keep Elian from being sent back to communist Cuba, and that I would never forget that day he was snatched. I told him I think about it all the time, which is true. He proceded to tell me how much my words meant to him (yea right), and that he was just thinking about it today. He mentioned that April 22 is the 5 year anniversery of the raid by the gov't on the defenseless home, and that it was actually Easter morning. Radtechtravel responded,"That's right, it was Ressurection Sunday morning." Coffe answered back by saying,"You're right, it was Resurrection Sunday." I think at that point, he knew we were not Democrats, but he was very polite, and talked with us for a while.

Just FYI, it was April 20, not 21. :)

Correction....
"He mentioned that April 22 is the 5 year anniversery of the raid by the gov't on the defenseless home, and that it was actually Easter WEEKEND.
