Less than a third of voters say they want illegal immigrant children to be housed in their home states,

And yet Obama and Holder have placed them in all 57 states. Pubbies do NOTHING! Rule by dictators.

[ExCTCitizen]

Yes...agree...

Bread and water lost children?

Really?

FLASH - WWII: “France today announced full entitlements to invading German army children!”

FLASH -TODAY: “The US just did the same thing for invading Mexicans!”

[WayneS]

PS - I stated I thought the children should be housed and fed and treated humanely while their return to their home countries is expedited. It is not their fault they are being used by their home governments and by ours.

If you think their is something wrong with that the I am glad you do not consider me a conservative, because your kind of conservative must be one seriously miserable, incredibly selfish, person.

Unfortunately when California tried that in the 90s the red diaper doper babies took it to court.....final decision (and I believe it was a SCOTUS decision) was that the ‘children’ cannot be deprived

Quote from a person who posted an earlier message here: The schools have no choice when it comes to providing K-12 education. SCOTUS made that mandatory with Plyler vs Doe in 1982. Here in Fairfax County, Virginia we pay $104 million a year for ESOL instruction for 31,000 students.

My post: That 1982 Supreme Court ruling is the reason we need Constitutional amendments like the following to try to control illegal immigration:

1. "School attendance: Only citizens, legal residents, those with special student visas can attend elementary, high school, and colleges in the United States."

2. "One parent must be a citizen before a newborn child is given automatic citizenship."

3. Felony: We must finally get very serious and declare that crossing the border illegally is a felony. It sounds mean to call it a felony, but we must do it, if we will ever have any chance of controlling our borders. Having the same illegals crossing our borders over and over is wrong,wrong, and wrong.

Illegal immigrant parents come to the United States for the wonderful benefits that their children can receive, like a quality education and great health care. Can you blame them for making the dangerous, long trip with their young children, or sending their children by themselves with the hope that the United States will automatically let them stay?

I don't understand how a child can illegally cross the southern border one day and automatically be eligible to enroll in public school the next day. That is wrong.

Dont dismiss this so easily-—there’s more ways than one to skin this cat.

Remember, they nailed Al Capone for tax evasion-—even as he was guilty of numerous heinous crimes they couldn’t prove.

You were correct about it being a bad headline and I just noticed it's been changed at the WT. I wonder if someone there saw your post. :-)

Majority of voters oppose free school, lawyers for illegal children

I am not dismissing the idea just merely suggesting that there is precedence that we need to be aware of
