From Robert Knight at Townhall:
Curiously, one aspect of the old Nazi state that originated in 1918, even before the Nazis took power, remains: a prohibition on home schooling. It seems the current education authorities are willing to enforce this draconian law to keep their monopoly.
A courageous German Christian couple refused to hand over their children to the government schools and fled to America three years ago. Now, the Obama Administration is trying to send them back. A likely outcome would be the state seizing the children and imprisoning the parents.
In December 2010, U.S. Immigration Judge Lawrence O. Burman granted asylum to Uwe and Hannalore Romeike, who home school their five children (they now have another baby as well). The family is living in Tennessee.
The U.S. Agency for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) filed an appeal, arguing that homeschoolers are not a fit category for granting asylum. Keep in mind that they bend the law to grant asylum to others, including same-sex partners. The Board of Immigration Appeals overturned Judge Burman’s decision, and the family is fighting deportation.
Romeike v. Holder is now before the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, and will be heard on April 23.
In his ruling, Judge Burman declared that Germany’s policy abridges “basic human rights that no country has a right to violate” and is “repellent to everything we believe in as Americans.”
Aw, never mind!
This is what sent that Hakken family from Tampa to Cuba. Obama hates independent minds and religious families.
May Obamas kidneys fail today.
Gosh... if this was a gay couple, what would we be seeing?
The American issues are the only ones that count ~ this guy and his kids are illegal aliens and they must return to their third world hell-hole ~ same's the Mexicans.
The US government should deal with these questions in the same manner ~ with no preference for Mexicans.
because they’re not drunk driving welfare squatters like his own aunt and uncle?
His illegal alien aunt and uncle get to stay.
Meanwhile, hundreds of illegals cross the border today from Mexico. They are welcomed with promises of food stamps, drivers license and a voting card.
Just signed the petition. It felt good.
I’m still not over the Elian Gonzalez - held at gunpoint - deportation. One of America’s most shameful moments - curses to clinton and janet reno. They are nothing to me. Beneath algae scum.
This just more Anti-White Ku Klux Klan Style racism....plain and simple
While the Black Racist Obama is working to give mostly Mestizo and Mullato Hispanic Illegal Aliens amnesty...he is deporting white Germans who are truly going to be harmed by their government upon return.
Folks you better wake up
I wonder how many muslim mosques-schools there are in Germany?
