Grandchild: "Grandpa, what was it like back then, when ICE was snatching innocent people off the streets and the President was putting some them in dictator prisons without trial? Before the super bad stuff started?"

Grandpa: "It was a very controversial time, yes. Lots of people doing what they believed was best."

Grandchild: "Did ICE ever go after you?"

Grandpa: "I worked for the--it was only office--I mean, I was unemployed then. Yes, that's right! Tricky economy, don't you know. Only odd-jobs. I lived in a place where those things weren't happening. In fact, most of us didn't really know about it until it was all over. You remember that, right dear?"

Mother: <frustrated death-glare> "...Come along, let's wash your hands before dinner."
