"It is the first such program to be implemented by a sheriff's office that is east of the Mississippi River."

BTTT!

Some raised concerns that the program might unfairly target Hispanics, who make up the largest percentage of illegal immigrants.

This does not compute.

"You would think that people who came here to commit crimes didn't bring their children to put them into school," he said.

They committed a crime when they jumped the border. Their kids are accessories.

It doesn't compute because, you see, Hispanics are "victims" of anti-immigration radicals and are merely here as "undocumented workers" doing jobs that Americans won't.

I think Virginia just did something similiar. A number of State Troopers are going to be able to deal with illegals.

Our system is constantly being screwed up by liberal Democrats....but we are slowly making progress against this invasion.

[TheLion]

BTW, is North Carolina still givin drivers licenses to any illegal who applies?

Gjertsen said the number of students in the ESL program is rising exponentially.

"Some portion of that is very likely related to illegal immigration," he said.

Amazing how many boneheads are in the school system.

$650,000 a year - pretty soon we'll be looking at real money!

Who comes up with these costs?

What does the guv of NC think of this?

[TaxRelief]

They are the first ones certified east of the Mississippi.

By law, most of the kids of illegals are citizens.

[TaxRelief]

What does the guv of NC think of this?

Funny you should ask. Sue Myrick will be running for governor from what I hear. I imagine our Dem guv--who welcomes illegal immigration--is a tad disappointed.

[VeniVidiVici]

By law, most of the kids of illegals are citizens

Really? Which law is this?

[TaxRelief]

If they are born in America, they are automatically citizens. No?

[VeniVidiVici]

Yeah, but they have to be born here. I doubt the majority of kids in Mecklenberg schools are native born. If so, why do they need ESOL?

[TaxRelief]

Even if the Mexican kids are born in this country, they still speak Spanish-- almost exclusively-- until the first day of Kindergarten.

Many of the children of illegals do not need ESL, but they are still overburdening the school systems and paying very little in taxes compared to their peers.

[rodguy911]

anchor babies--all that need to be changed.

I would love to know who wrote some of this stuff 300,000 illegals and only a small percentage commit crimes, I doubt that.
