I didn't have any baking this week, team Mexican who did the Wednesday meal at Emmanuel, brings their own dessert. I was very touched because one of the team did a little special, non spicy, taco for me. Wasn't that kind.
There's a postscript to the bit I did yesterday on the young men in Minneapolis, who are being radicalised in their mosques then joining up to fight with ISIS. Two of them who were friends and went to the same High School were killed, and one of them worked at the airport at St Paul's, the state capital. He was cleaning the planes, and refuelling the aircraft, for which he needed security clearance. So it is setting off alarm bells. I think myself that Homeland Security should be looking at all the young Somali men in Minneapolis, but they won't because that would be "profiling", which is very BAD, and causes outrage.
There's something else setting off alarm bells all over the nation. Thousands of young people come here on student visas, and they are not all studying at Yale and Harvard. They also go to schools which teach subjects like hair braiding, and horse shoeing (!!) And it is just being realised that thousands of them haven't been turning up for their classes and are unaccounted for. It is the responsibility of the school to report any student to Homeland Security, who has missed a class for more than thirty days. But they have been a bit lax about that.
