US Schools Safe Haven For Many Immigrant Children
CBS News Local - DC ^ | July 15, 2014

... For children and teens crossing the border alone like Martinez did two years ago, America’s schools are one of the few government institutions where they are guaranteed services, from science instruction to eye exams. While their cases are being processed by immigration authorities, most of these minors are released to family members or sponsors who are told the children must be enrolled in school.

Schools and districts in metropolitan areas such as Washington, Houston and Miami have seen an uptick in the number of these students and anticipate more could enroll this fall.

The government estimates that 90,000 children, primarily from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala, could make the journey alone by this fall, and that as many as 145,000 of them could arrive next year.

Some of the ‘children’ are 35, greyhaired,
tattooed and hitting on the teachers by force.

Illegal alien children = full employment for unionized public school teachers.

Make it 500,000. Central Americans know a good deal when they see it.

To clarify.. not advocating 500K.. just anticipating it.

The word in South America is that America’s borders are open.

They are being invited.

the Justice Department has said cases involving families and unaccompanied children would be moved to the top of backlogged court dockets.

to the top - pushed to the front above other court cases

Meanwhile, what the hell do these countries do with the foreign aid we give them?

Which is why we need the National Guard on the border repelling the invasion. No sanctuary, no amnesty, no court dates. Just turn them back around and let the illegal alien invaders figure out what to do from there.

Sure, let’s see how safe it’ll be when they enroll those illegals that were just dumped in Houston, TX. Illegals vs. Katrina trash.

Where in this whole fiasco is there ANY regard for the taxpayer? Instead, its only for “SERVICES” to be rendered to anyone with a pulse.

Meanwhile, if you, an American citizen, game or defraud the system, the book will be thrown at you by all applicable authorities. I’m not advocating lawbreaking, but I am so sick of this detestable double standard.

The situation on that border has been a damn mess for years. People in the Southwest are sick of it ...especially legal citizens who are Latino..for the most part.
We just CANNOT afford it any more...period...As far as right and wrong etc....IT would be NICE to have some help from the Mexican government ...whatever that is..LOL!
Well it is really Not a laughing matter..As we know The Zetas ..and others Control the government..And the Mexican
government has for many years said in so many words..Publicly in Spanish....”The Gringos stole our lands many years ago .. but now we will launch a new invasion .. from the South ...an economic invasion..I Have paraphrased this. BTW .. I had many Latino friends in the Army.. I know some who died in Vietnam..I almost married a Latina.. so I do Not hate the ordinary Mexican or whoever...WHO I DO HATE
are the real criminals ... the real murderers.. the cartelistas etc...if it was up to me I would shoot them Dead on sight..no words ..nothing..Unfortunately.. life just ain’t that simple....Did anybody mention Corruption?
Come on ...do you realize how much corruption the money the cartels Have can buy? There Have to be Many politicos
in nice suits and ties ...and squeaky clean “ family men” who are a part of this.
Make no mistake This much worse than Afghanistan and other countries....By the way ...hmmmm..... the War on Terror.....?? to my knowledge not ONE single “ terrorist” has been seized at the Mexican border. Please correct me if I am wrong... There are many other vested interests involved who are a part of the problem...The DEA?...hum...heard many stories...The CIA... heard some things I hope are not true..
WE need solutions on both sides of the border Because ..like it or not....Mexico and the US are entwined in so many ways, like an extended family living next door to each other..with many skeletons in each attic......
And also ..A great Love that does not get reported.
Talk is cheap... We need solutions...anyone ?
