“ I was going to stop at McDonald’s for breakfast, but it’s closed. I hear it’s closed because this is the day immigrants are taking off as protest to Trump’s immigration law. I was annoyed at first until I realized why it was closed. Now I’m in full support of anything that goes against Trump and his ilk. I still want my pancakes and sausage, but I accept immigration, legal or otherwise, as a fact of progression of the human race. We need to be one world working toward to betterment of everyone, not isolating each country and living in fear. Everything is temporary, and needs to be seen as such. “
