I’ve done it once, ages ago. What I remember is when they arrive, put them somewhere cool and dark ‘til you release them. Best to pick a cool drizzly day or water the area. If it’s warm & sunny they are more active & likely to fly away. Hope it works 👍🏻👍🏻

Agree with your 1st sentence. If you weren’t raised in it, you may not know the rubes do believe that stuff. They’re being played by leadership of course. A sad affair all the way around. Growing up, I knew they would pose a danger to society. I’m of course not unique in that. Here we are though.

Margaret Stock, an Alaska-based immigration attorney and a member of the legal team for an elderly Syrian man who was told he would be on the flight to the Central African Republic, said he has scars all over his body from being tortured in his home country. He feared returning to Syria because he is a Sufi Muslim, she said, and a U.S. immigration judge agreed that those fears were credible.

The man, she added, suffers from diabetes — a grave risk in the Central African Republic, where medical care, even for routine ailments, is extremely limited.

“He’s not going to be able to access his medication, and he’s going to die,” Stock said. “And they know he’s going to die if they send him there.”
