I was living in Miami when this happened. Never before have I seen such an arrogant display of gestapo tactics as that put on by the authorities in the Gonzalez case.

Stop putting refugees from Communism in the same category with illegal Mexicans. Cubans have a large social support network, so little Elian wouldn't have been a drain on the system as you suspect.

Besides, if it weren't for Jackboot Janet's fascistic treatment of the Gonzalez family, we wouldn't have won Florida in 2000.

And what of the "large social support network"?
Do they have jobs or are they just Cuban?

A support network must needs be durable beyond welfare and WIC.

Once Castro is gone...and Elian is in his 20's, I predict that the young man will come back here again. I know he's likely been 'brainwashed'; but I also believe the effects are short-lived and not permanent. That boy knew true freedom when he was here. He'll remember. This time he'll stay.
