Immigration - Some Oregon schools are using curricula from Mexico to aid Spanish speakers:

Oregon is counting on a new tool to educate Spanish-speaking students across state schools: Mexico's curriculum.

Already in place at three Oregon high schools, the programs aims to use textbooks, a detailed online Web site, DVDs and CDs provided for free by the Mexican government to teach math, science and even U.S. history to Spanish speakers in Oregon.

Conversations are under way between the Oregon Department of Education and Mexico's secretary of public education to align the curriculums of Oregon and Mexico so many courses in Mexico will be valid here and vice versa. The innovative move puts Oregon on par with other educators nationwide who have launched similar ventures in Yakima; San Diego, Calif.; and Austin, Texas.

If this is not stopped, we truly have gone down the rabbit hole.

They don't have to learn English. Instead, American taxpayers are coughing up dough to teach Mexicans not just in their language... but in their country's curriculum! I'm just livid about all the special privileges given to foreigners American kids don't have.

So, will the lesson plans include this guy?

[FlingWingFlyer]

It’s funny how WE’RE “racists” because Mexico doesn’t want to educate their own citizens. The demand that the US taxpayers do it for them. Sadly, we’re stupid enough to do it.

provided for free by the Mexican government to teach math, science and even U.S. history to Spanish speakers in Oregon.

Yeah, that's the ticket - teach foreigners a foreigner's take on American history.

Earth to Oregon: Why teach at all, if you are not going to teach American values?

Until we stop referring to these people as “immigrants” we have no hope of winning.

It’s coming to a town near all of us.

Mark Levin spoke about this on his program earlier.

You are correct, coming to a neighborhood near you.
I am in San Diego, one of the cities mentioned.
We are a county of over 3 million.

[TheBattman]

At least the materials are being provided by the Mexican government for “free”... (/sarcasm)

How the HECK are these immigrants suppose to learn English and how to operate here in the US by not even trying to assimilate?

[Fitzcarraldo]

Oregon doesn’t even share a border with mexico, last I looked...

[AmericanInTokyo]

Maybe illegal aliens can each one beat the living crap out of the other, and vice a versa, and spread it around, then they call ALL apply for special VISAs to stay in the USA, because they were victiiiiiiiiiiiiiims and in the name of compassssssssssion and divvvvvvvvversity.

For most, a bloody nose or a fat lap would be a small price to pay for continued residence in USA, riding the Greatest Gravy Train known to man.

“Oregon is counting on a new tool to educate Spanish-speaking students across state schools: Mexico’s curriculum.”

Helo México adiós América!

We are becoming outcasts in our own country.

We need to do something about our perfidious government “leaders” before it’s to late.

I don’t know how much more of this crap people are going to take, before they refuse to take anymore.

I’m trying to be discreet here.

Here is a sample lesson. Notice that it makes no mention of mass sacrifice.
