I was at LAX yesterday

And there are a couple videos I wanted to share:

The first is from inside Terminal 2 where we were waiting for detainees to be released. Families were brought to the front and then LAX Airport Police insisted on behalf of Customs and Border Protection that we leave the Terminal for safety reasons or no one would be released.



The second is outside of several detainees being released to the crowd cheering "welcome home."



Although I dearly wish things had not come to this sad point, I am glad that we are resisting and my time yesterday was well spent and I am not sorry for ruining anyone's travel plans.

WELCOME HOME!!!
