And our politicians want more of this riffraff. It must pay them handsomely.
They're inadvertently right about that.
Expel the miscreants. That'll teach them what taxpayer funded education is all about. let 'em pick grapes for a living if they don't like it.
under what authority can the police prevent students from leaving campus? truancy laws? I don't think those would apply to students who are 16 or older, certainly not to those who are 18. And I seriously doubt truancy laws can be used in this manner - students may have their parent's permision to leave for all the police know. A student leaving school and going home with his parent's permission wouldn't be guilty of truancy.
Passes? We don't need no steenkin' passes.

They already act like they own the country.
And in a sense they do.
The first thing they did when they came into this country was to break the law.
Then they parade around in broad daylight without anyone so much as saying "boo" to them.
Its all over but the crying.
Pepper spray at Mexicans? There's a pretty obvious joke in there. What's next, spraying beer at Germans?
Our senior class of about 500 was in the gym for a mid-day assembly for something I don't remember. For some reason, when it was time for the assembly to end, some student said that we should all just stay there and not leave to go to our next class. So we stayed, everyone getting in a good mood and figuring, hey, let's all just stay here.
About five or ten minutes passed with no one leaving, and everyone just chuckling and wondering what would happen if we all just stayed.
Then the principal, in what was to be the most humiliating moment of his career, came up to the podium and sternly warned us (about 500 of us) that anyone who stays and doesn't go now to their next class will be marked as an unexcused absence and have to serve detention.
Immediate loud laughter from the whole crowd followed. Then more laughter as we all imagined our whole class of 500 in one big detention. Nobody left then - it was now a big party atmosphere. Eventually after about 5 or ten more minutes people started to leave as they figured, what the hell do we want to stay here for anyway? Most of us just stayed, but as the crowd slowly dwindled it started to seem pretty stupid to just stay there, so our big "protest" ended. Nobody, of course, got any detention as a result.
they should have just stood outside the gates with a bunch of citation books. kids are all obviously skipping class, hand each one a $200 fine and tell them to have fun.
Hmmm why not wait to lock the gates until they have left?. Then refuse entry for the rest of the term to them, that way those who appreciate the education TAX PAYERS have provided for them can actually learn,in peace and quiet.
