Barry University boycott

Since Barry University wants to get involved in politics, perhaps it would like to start paying taxes like the rest of us (Barry U tees off on Donald Trump, pulls golf team from Doral, April 23).

It’s looking for immigration reform to reunite legal immigrant families and give them a path to citizenship. Guess what? That has always been in effect — it’s called legal immigration, with “legal” being the key word. Barry is boycotting Doral golf course because Trump wants to control our borders to ensure that only legal immigrants enter the United States.

Maybe it will be easier to get a starting time at Doral now that Barry’s golf team won’t be playing there.
