Meet Roy Naim. He’s American, just not legally. Oh, and he’s also being held without bail at the moment on child pornography charges.
The New York Daily News Reports:
Roy Naim, 29, who bills himself as an immigration activist, allegedly downloaded at least three illicit videos featuring underage boys from the website of another sicko based in Louisiana who made the porn, a complaint filed in Brooklyn Federal Court says.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Saritha Komatireddy said the defendant was soliciting others to produce kiddie porn and was a risk to flee to Israel.
Naim was featured in Time magazine in 2012 as part of “We Are Americans,” the magazine’s look into the lives of 35 illegal aliens who are not Americans. He has since become a poster boy for immigration reform and won fans like illegal alien reporter turned activist Jose Antonio Vargas.

Did anyone mention Naim is the Jewish face of the immigration reform struggle? Time to find a new face, perhaps?

These are some of Naim’s most recent tweets before his arrest on Wednesday.
Sometimes it gets lonely on this path and all you want is someone to reach out and say "I am thinking of you."

As much as I love "online" it has taught many of us bad communication skills. Instead of talking it out, we just block or ignore.

Communication is about learning to express how you feel and together work out the differences. Blocking/ignoring should not be a thing.

Remember. Friendship works both ways. If someone doesn't put in their time, drop it. Let go. And watch better people fall into place.

Just letting go…

Sometimes you try so hard and still get slapped harder. Sometimes you just wanna give it up. It is painful. It hurts.

Giving it up…
