Aguirre and church sanctuary: I find the story of Salvadoran national Francisco Aguirre most insulting as a Christian. This illegal immigrant is just using the church as a way to escape the punishment he deserves. He is not being persecuted because of religious beliefs. He is being persecuted because he broke our immigration and drug laws. The people are putting their children at risk being in the presence of a man who associates with drug smuggling and breaking the law. Would they do the same thing for Americans who abuse our laws? I think not.

Just because this man has a different set of officers coming after him, they say it's OK.

The Bible does not support this behavior. What are they thinking? Problem is, they are not.
