Illegal Immigrants Complain They Get Student Loans Instead of Grants
College Fix ^ | January 3, 2014

Posted on 01/07/2014 9:55:26 AM PST by Zakeet

Some students in the country illegally have complained that the millions of dollars the University of California system recently pledged to help them earn a college degree will come by way of student loans instead of grants.

As UC officials discuss specifics on how the $5 million UC President Janet Napolitano recently budgeted to support undocumented students will be allocated – much of which will go to student loan programs, it’s been decided - some student activists have bemoaned that it’s not fair to strap stressed out, disadvantaged students in the country illegally with college debt.

“We think that the 5 million dollars will have an impact if the money goes directly into the pockets of undocumented students,” By Any Means Necessary campus activist group leader David Douglass told The Daily Californian in an email.

It is getting to where I have to look with care at these postings to be sure they’re not your work. The world is getting to be a truly crazy place.

That photo wants to bum me out/anger me, but in it I see the attitude of all mankind towards The Lord. Basically a general ingratitude born of unbelief. Putting one’s faith in Christ is a BEGINNING of learning gratitude, but I’d say we’re so packed down with pride that even then our remaining years are a continual revelation of our bottomless NEED of Him.

Good thing He has unlimited patience (per Paul).

I just wonder when He will end up losing that patience and then giving us only seven years to get it right or experience damnation.

I have no clue.

One thing I do know is that I look forward to the day that the elite end up getting their spud exposed to the illegal aliens and have to deal with the horrors that normal citizenry deal with now every day.

Illegal Aliens can go to their home countries and ask them for free college

Illegal Alien Amnesty is Anti American Bigotry. Any thing other than deportation is treason

In addition to the felonies most have committed by: false ID, false or stolen social security numbers, benefit fraud, tax evasion, fraudulent tax returns, skipping out on hospital bills (etc), the kind of stuff that the Equal Protection Clause is supposed to prevent (unequal application of Laws) AND being here illegally in the first place, the NON COMPLIANCE WITH THE SELECTIVE SERVICE LAW PREVENTS STUDENT LOANS (Federal FAFSA), FEDERAL JOBS AND BENEFITS.

I am ANGRY and Reviled/Repulsed by the Illegal Immigrant lobby. American citizen’s rights are being trampled on.

Are there any people on earth more arrogant than America’s illegals? This is what pandering and coddling them has done.

I wonder how long it will take until the US goes up in flames over the issue of illegal immigration?

Third Worlders do things this way.

They always push the mark as far as they can. In their societies, whatever you can take...is yours.

If the other guy is weak and rolls over for you...you are the strong one, and deserve what he has.

Welcome to the Jungle kiddies.
