Send them the text of the 10th Amendment with a note to kindly piss off.
A government that’s easy to hate!
Why just numbers? Heck no. Give names, addresses and number of people illegally living in the U.S. I would have zero problem with these people being put in jail for the rest of their natural life. I am telling you right now that if we tried to sneak across the border to Mexico and live there illegally, we would be put in a Mexican jail so fast that we would be stunned at the treatment. I find it completely hypocritical that Perry and Fox were tell us that we need to accept that the illegals are here to stay and shut up about it but nothing about the treatment of Americans who get arrested in Mexico.
FLAGRANT abuse to FORCE the Public to provide "Los Freebies" to ILLEGALS.
What U.S. Citizen student would withdraw from school because of a crackdown on Illegals?????
No more tacos for school lunches for you kids, now.....LOL
FYI ping, not exactly homeschooling, just over bearing government.
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
And a nanny state ping to boot.
Will they ask them all to report to the nearest train,
bus station etc?
I was thinking of students who are citizens of 1. Alabama
and 2. the USA, not illegals, and was intending to allude
to totalitarian control in general.
This is not going to sit well with many folk down here.
What an outrage. I hope Alabama tells the feds to piss up a rope.
The federal government does not belong in education. Period. However, because the public schools receive federal money, the federal government has every right to request the names of all current students, regardless of immigration status. As for private schools and homeschoolers, the federal government has no right to request such a list. Think about motive. Why does the gov’t want a list of withdrawn students?
Something else to think about... (and I think this is a waste of time and money, but it’s another scenario) every child born in America has a Social Security Number. The government already knows their names and ages. Every IRS return has SSN for dependents. i.e. they know where we live. The federal government *could* send the districts a list (it’s a basic macro search that will take up lots of taxpayer money because of all the paper/mailing involved) and have the districts compare their enrollment to it. The names of enrolled students that DON’T appear on the Fed’s list are the ones to look at for immigration purposes. The names on the fed’s list that don’t appear in the school enrollment are likely either private schoolers, homeschoolers, or have moved to greener pastures so to speak. If the gov’t wants to keep tabs on every student, it can do so without too much effort.
