Portland Mayor Keith Wilson wrote an opinion piece published in Newsweek, (“Feds are courting disaster at Portland ICE facility, Mayor Wilson warns,”) Oct. 20). Titled “ICE facility Is a disaster waiting to happen,” his piece is authoritative (rather than authoritarian), well-reasoned and compassionate toward everyone who’s been caught up in this unnecessary scenario.

“If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.” ― Roald Dahl, The Twits
