Dane, you're dead wrong on a lot of things, e.g. injecting teachers' unions (a `red herring' or strawman) when the issue is illegal aliens.
But you have a lot of sand, it takes grit to serve as a `sounding board' and we're lucky to have you. Hang in there.
What is wrong in mentioning the leftist attitudes of today's American education system. That is what driving these demonstrations, with a lot of help from tancredo type of animistic rhetoric, IMO.
