From flashpoints around the world - wars in Africa and the Middle East, terrorism in Asia, gang violence in Central America - tens of millions of migrants have run for their lives in just the past few years, creating crises of epic scale for many destination nations.

A small fraction, about 85,000 annually, find a haven in the United States as refugees. Last year, 2,645 were resettled in Pennsylvania, including 510 in Philadelphia. New Jersey became home to 314, 91 of whom moved to the Camden area.

Overall, 40 percent of recent refugees are minors.

--SNIP-- Issa tried to enroll in McCaskey. District personnel, she testified, told her she was "too old" and "under-credited" to earn a diploma before aging-out at 21.

"Get a job," she said administrators advised her.

For instance, what should a school district - legally obligated to educate students until age 21 - do with a foreign-born 19-year-old who reads at a fifth-grade level?

Put him in with the rest of the seniors who read at a 5th grade level ?

Any 19 year old who is able and willing can quickly catch up on reading skills

Put a freaking book in his hands and a dictionary....

The Minutemen, the Tommies, the Doughboys, the grunts, the dogfaces, etc etc.

These were all enlisted or conscripted and fought on home and foreign soil.

I’m not sure why we indulge the cowardice of anyone who refuses to defend his/her homeland, especially when they repay their refuge nation with demands, separatism, hostility and even sedition and violence.

Nah. They just jumped aboard a gravy train that is fueled by Western taxpaying suckers.

In TX there are many jobs that require you to speak TX-MX or you don’t get hired. No matter if you took Spanish in school, because the illegals don’t speak Spanish but Spanglish, or as the great G. Gordon Liddy called it “ Guacamole.”

They are being trafficked here because there are no US citizens in those desks.

Sadly, like our multi-generational welfarians, these invaders are going to find far less Western taxpayers to pay for their free sh!t. They’ll quickly realize they were brought here to work for the 1%ers that have basically stopped American reproduction.

Refugees are not immigrants - they have special rights and status in the host country, mandated by the UN.
