TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV) – Florida State University students and members of community organizations collaborated at FSU to make the school a safe-haven for undocumented students.

The demonstrators want the FSU administration to publicly declare the university as a sanctuary campus. By doing so, demonstrators want university agencies to refuse to release the immigration status of undocumented students to Immigration or Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers.

I wanted to make note of this local "rally" we had. Is 7 people out protesting worthy of prime-time news in a city of nearly 200,000? Now, when we had the tea party rally years ago, it barely got mentioned despite many people showing up to it.

lol. Very funny.

Like I said before, I have 41 first cousins.

Include aunts, uncles and extended family, and we could have beaten most hillary rallies.

” “The detention centers for undocumented immigrants in this country are basically jails that you can stay in for years at a time.”

++++

Sounds like a sanctuary city. So why are these illegals bitching about this? They get free food, clothing etc..

The one thing the left is good at, is turning language on its head.

There’s nothing “undocumented” about these folks. They have LOTS of documents, if they are illegals, they have documents that state they are Foreign Nationals, of another country. “Undocumented” makes it sound as if they just lost their wallet or something.

Americans don’t need to be mean spirited, but this whole charade needs to stop. It is insanity. No other country puts up with this BS, to include Mexico. The politicians allow it, the costs are placed on the native born, and anyone who dares to raise the issue is branded.

There needs to be a direct feedback mechanism put back in place, the way it use to be. One thing about leftists, they are the cheapest bastards on the planet. They are very, very, generous with other peoples money.

However, if we start sending them the bill for all their “generosity” - literally send them the bill, reflected in their paychecks, in their tuition, in their property tax, they will fold so fast it will make your head spin. Hell, they’ll be out there placing land mines on the border overnight.

Make. Them. Pay. Trust Me.

So get a list of their supporters...tack on the tuition, meal card, books, etc, of the illegals to their tuition bill. Let them demonstrate how loving and caring they are. If it’s that great of a cause, then they won’t mind paying for it themselves.

You know, the old medieval walled cities in Europe? They cost money to live inside the walls. Taxes probably. That was the sanctuary! In exchange for protection. From highwaymen and robbers and the rest of it.

In modern civilized countries, the “sanctuary” is for citizens! That’s the whole point. People pay taxes, and are supposed to have at least nominal protections.

One thing people in general have forgotten, the police are a recent invention, part of the “social contract”. They aren’t really there to protect the law abiding, their job is to protect the criminal, to see that his rights aren’t violated. You see, and I’m not saying I like this - once one party isn’t holding up their end of the contract, then the deal is off, right? Any “contract” has two willing parties.

So if government fails at all levels, and especially at their fundamental roles, then what do they expect will happen?

Since these FSU snowflake rioters want “undocumented” illegal aliens to be able to get a free education, who the hell do these retards think are going to pay for it. We’re talking retards here who can’t even afford to pay for their own programming and indoctrination.

Is this the purpose of colleges now? To use their facilities as mini sanctuary cities by misguided fools? If this is true at this college, cut off their Federal funding. If they can spare the cash to house and shelter these criminals, they obviously don’t need the Federal funding.

Now that is a great idea. It follows the same principle of the teacher that had a class that wanted to try socialism on class grades. Long story short, the kids who were failing kept failing and the A students started giving up and failing too.

Common sense logic wins again.

It sure seems like it. I remember a few years ago when the campus library handed out free condoms. That was probably tax payer money going to that too. That was around 2008-10.

Basically Socially/Government funded indoctrination centers.

Fine. Make the FSU students pay for the illegals’ tuitions out of their own pockets then.

No grants, loans, scholarships, or government funds for them either.

How about no federal funding of sanctuary schools since they are supporting lawlessness (illegal settlers).

These students obviously dont need federal student aid so let’s get that shut off now. Then they can decide if the whole university can function with no federal aid.

That’d be a nice start for sure. And perhaps hold them accountable for any crimes the illegals perpetrate.

Well my Alma Mater screwed up. I can see a bunch of donations drying out. These colleges are so stupid.
