Someone should look into the revenue sharing that makes the mayors want so many illegals. It has to be about money.

No kidding. Unless a legal immigrant is extremely ignorant, they'd know they have nothing to fear.

"Absenteeism for Latino students was at nearly 50 percent at Cherokee Middle School, 41 percent at Sennett Middle School, and 33 percent at Leopold Elementary School,"

This shows that these schools districts are over budgeted by 50, 41, and 33 % respectively. The best way to put a stop to this social drain is to quit funding it in the first place.

When these school board cry about lack of funding, put your feet down tell these touchy feely teacher's union controlled school boards to quit teaching illegal immigrants for free, at the expense of our children's educations. We pay to sent American children to school, not the children from every other nation.

Fight back with the one tool everyone seems to understand- the dollar.

When was the last time immigration did sweeps?

I don't know if this qualifies as an "immigration sweep"...but here
in Columbia, MO, my brother said that the local builders have told him
that they get immigrations officers at the worksites (unannounced)
2-3 times a year.

Might account for the VERY FEW Hispanics/Latinos in this area; they probably
move onto other places like Socialist Haven St. Louis.

Funny, we have had a decent building boom here...with Americans doing
jobs that Dubya says they won't do!

Hate to burst the bubble, but the fact that absenteeism was up for Latino's by X% does not mean that absenteeism was up by X% of the total. No doubt there are a lot of illegals everywhere.

For example: If there are 30 kids in the class. 6 are Latino. That is 20%. If 3 don't show up, that is 50% absenteeism for Latino students. Total absenteeism is 10%. You also do not know which are legal and which are not.

Recycle them into rags, first. I find a good scrubbing of the toilet with a Springs product helps to cleanse the soul, LOL! ;)

"You also do not know which are legal and which are not."

I'll take a guess and say all of them, and cut the budget anyways. Teachers can take a pay cut, or better yet, teach kids reading, writing, and arithmetic instead of gay sexual experiences, and ensure every child enrolled is in America legally. Better yet, get rid of the public school system, school taxes completely.

Did you hear the rumor about the new top-secret facial recognition satellites that will be deployed over the May 1st protests?

I heard unmanned drones using optical cloaking that can make them appear invisible will be used over Latino neighborhoods. Don't let it get around...

"It has to be about money."

You nailed it. In Wisconsin, money is THE defining factor, for sure. WEAC and MTI (Teacher's Unions) OWN the Governorship of this state and Madison is in their pocket, too. Gotta keep pumping State and Federal dollars into our Public School system and our University system to keep everyone happy and perpetuating the Socialist Agenda. ;)

Between the Hmong students, the illegals and the legal immigrants of every stripe it's getting to the point where you're lucky if a few kids in any classroom are white.

And yet, the majority of our teachers are white liberals.

Gee, if that isn't a mirror image of how the Dems run the state and Nation when they're in charge, I don't know what is! Give the "minorities" who really are no longer the "minority" a voice and screw the rest of us that pay the bills.

You know, I'd like to think that the socialists in this state are dumb...but they are frighteningly efficient about maintaining the 'Plantation Mentality Status Quo.'

My guess is the number of illegal aliens in the country is underestimated by at least half. There may be 25-30 million in the country.

"Fight back with the one tool everyone seems to understand- the dollar."

Excellent advice. Now if the WI GOP will only give us a few credible candidates, we'll get right on that. ;)

Had I heard about his earlier, I would have rented a white passenger van for the day to do some cruising.

"There's no truth to the rumors," Cieslewicz said. "People should just go about their normal daily lives."

Yeah, that's the ticket. Don't believe that there's going to be an immigration sweep...just keep at your business, don't bother hiding....

Well, I think it's brilliant. I think one of these raids could occur at any moment, almost anywhere in the country. I think anyone who is here illegally should keep a sharp eye out at all times....
