It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Cole Bros was the first circus I ever went to, way back when I lived in New Bern, NC.  At least back then, they were the largest circus to still do their shows in a tent.

The problem isn't immigration per se, but illegal immigration.  Especially considering those who are trying to go about it the legal way keep running into roadblocks, delays and corruption.   My coworker has been trying to get some of his wife's family over here from the Philipines since 1992.  They're still in the que.  A friend's wife (British) was trying to get her son a green card.  He turned 18 during the process.  He had to go back to England and start over.

I saw the Wallendas (or what was left of them) at a Cole circus many years ago. Got Karl's signature but was too young and dumb to appreciate it at the time.
