I overlooked this photo in coverage yesterday of the demonstration at the Arkansas Capitol, one of many nationwide in the Keep Families Together movement, to protest Donald Trump’s mistreatment of immigrants seeking asylum in the U.S.

Someone created a shroud for Sen. Jason Rapert’s 10 Commandments monument to emphasize a great commandment that seems often to be overlooked these days. Lots of comments on the photo on the Arkansas Times Facebook page. They include some with little sympathy for the families locked up and separated at the border.
