[Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2017-03: Cuban Arrests

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I change my abstain vote back to yes.  Having read the information I
believe this is a right stand.  Asking for diplomatic intervention is not
against our principles.  There is no evidence of violent wrongdoing and
when people are arrested by the state we should expect some - and this in a
country with a government that has a history of human rights abuses.  For
us to get squeamish about standing up for human rights is not just.  IF
they have done something wrong, let it be exposed in the light of day - not
this night time spiriting away and lack of process and open information.
