“they would have gone to the admin office and said, ‘I want to be here for myself, My parents are effed up, what do I need to do?’”
And the school admins could say, “Right here, right now, sit in those chairs and take the required exams. Immediately after that, suit up and show us your best rowing / crew skills. Then we’ll take it from there.”
Still, that wouldn’t be fair. It would be the same as illegal DACAs in America being given amnesty because they’ve been “good” and are here only because their parents snuck them in. Still wrong. Still need to leave.
You like being mean to kids?
No, the admins would have looked at their grades and decided.
You are two fer two now, first worrying about your Boeing investments, now all for slapping down kids whose parents are fakers and liars.
Stop and use your noggin.
It never occured to ME to link the logic of the two, illegals and school entrance.
STILL, THAT WOULDN'T BE FAIR.
IT WOULD BE THE SAME AS ILLEGAL DACA'S IN AMERICA BEING GIVEN AMNESTY BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN "GOOD" AND ARE HERE ONLY BECAUSE THEIR PARENTS SNUCK THEM IN.
STILL WRONG.
STILL NEED TO LEAVE.
I am going to have a BLAST thinking about and mulling that over today.
Thank YOU, MayflowerMadam
Wow you have applied this beautifully to the DACA issue. Even non elite liberals are up in arms about this. I will happily use your comparison explanation to address DACA.
