Bay Of Quinte

Bay of Quinte ra ra ra.
Catching walleye ha ha ha.
Up and down The Reach.
To Picton Bay with my leech.
Deep and wide open.
Spreading her arms north and east. 
Without a word hardly spoken.
Shore lunch was a feast.
Trolling slow headed north.
Then east in Hay Bay Back and forth.
I could stay here all day.
Bay of Quinte ra ra ra.
Catching walleye ha ha ha.

COUNTRY BORDERS VS UNITY

Why 90,000 Children Flooding Our Border Is Not an Immigration Story
June 16, 2014 The numbers are astounding.
Just a few weeks ago, the United States was projecting 60,000 unaccompanied minors would attempt to illegally cross the U.S.-Mexico border by the end of the year. That projection is now90,000, and it may be surpassed.
Barack Obama has said he will use his powers as president to deal with immigration, blaming inaction on the larger issue on Congress.
Mr Obama has pledged to shift resources towards the southern border, which would mean more deportation of those who have recently crossed the US border illegally or who are considered dangerous, but fewer deportations of undocumented immigrants from the interior of the country.
In addition to the transfer of manpower south, Mr Obama said he was directing the secretary of homeland security and the US attorney general to come up with recommendations about what he could do within his presidential powers to improve the US immigration system.
Complicating matters, a 2008 anti-human trafficking law signed by President George Bush prevents the US from returning children who are not from Mexico and Canada to their home countries without a deportation hearing.
The large majority of the children detained in the past few months are not from those countries, and the Obama administration says it wants more flexibility to deport them swiftly.
Two Texas politicians have announced plans to introduce a bipartisan bill to modify the law to treat undocumented children from Central America like those who hail from Mexico.

  The best way to promote peace and unity within a country is for people to stop allowing controversial topics to divide them.
