Voters say illegal children should be denied schooling, legal rights
The Washington Times ^ | October 1, 2014 | Stephen Dinan

Voters overwhelmingly reject extending legal protections to the new illegal immigrant children who surged across the U.S.-Mexico border this year, according to a new Rasmussen Reports poll released Wednesday.

Less than a third of voters say they want illegal immigrant children to be housed in their home states, and 53 percent said the children shouldn’t be allowed to attend taxpayer-supported public schools.

The Supreme Court has ruled that all children, regardless of legal status, are entitled to primary and secondary education in public schools, leaving some districts to face a surge of children with poor or nonexistent English language skills and other psychological trauma issues.

Also remember children includes 16 and 17 year old gangbangers.

Yes, and older gangbangers claiming to be 16 and 17.

They are “entitled” to education, but they are not entitled to stay here illegally. A functional system would give them a hearing the day they crossed the border and then send them home. A functional system would require students to prove residence and citizenship prior to enrolling in school, and non-citizens would be “entitled” to a free education but their names and addresses would be forwarded to Immigration for immediate deportation. Criminals are not entitled to my tax dollars beyond the price of bus fare home.

.....protestors in Murrieta, California turned away bus loads of border-jumpers, citing concerns about public health (pre-dated child deaths from enterovirus and the coming Ebola epidemic). American who dared speak out, were accused of fear- mongering and exaggeration.......

At the recent La Raza conference in Cali---Cong Luis Gutierrez (Dem-Ill) lacerated Republicans over amnesty; he threatened Republicans---saying vengeful latinos would make sure they never win another presidency.

La Raza President/ and chief hater, Janet Murguia, told hyphenates that it sickened her to hear Americans chanting. She accused Murietta, Cali protesters of having "cloaked their hatred in patriotism" by shouting "'USA! USA!' again and again."

"It made me angry," she said. "In fact, I was outraged."

Murguia demanded amnesty and said the road to the White House for Republicans goes through the Latino community and La Raza. She also said Republicans who want to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program will not get Hispanic votes.

=================================================

Disease and contagion gets even worse.

INVESTORS BUSINESS DAILY.COM REPORTED Secretary of State John Kerry warned of a new surge of illegals, just as Central America is being hit by a new wave of epidemics. No doubt about it: President Obama's open-borders policy is exposing us to disease, too.

In a background press briefing at the U.N. last Tuesday, a senior State Department official said Secretary of State John Kerry told his counterparts from Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Mexico that the pause in minors coming across our southern border was temporary, and that "we have to use this time to put in place more efforts, greater efforts to get at the root cause of this, because we know that those numbers may rise again."

The next wave may be worse than the first, however, because monsoon conditions, a harsh drought and the globalization of transport are ensuring that the 50,000 or so unscreened new entrants will be bringing a raft of new diseases with them.

Though little reported, the Caribbean is on high alert for the spread of chikungunya, known as "the virus of pain." Its Tanzanian-origin Bantu name means "to contort," describing the agony it leaves in joints for years. Some 183,000 cases were detected in the region this year as it spreads from the same mosquitoes that transmit dengue and yellow fever. Central America, according to a report in El Pais, is the epicenter. Puerto Rico has reported 2,000 cases and three deaths.

But the disease has worked its way up to the U.S.; Texas and Florida reported victims who have already contracted it without traveling to the affected regions. (Excerpt) Read more at news.investors.com ...

================================================

NOTEWORTHY: It has been verified that the border-jumpers, emanating from 144 antediluvian disease-ridden countries, are carriers of TB, Ebola,Chikungunya, Dengue fever, Norovirus. Hantavirus, Swine flu, Varicella. Variola, E-coli.......and childhood diseases America stamped out years ago.

The Obama admin has kept secret:

<><> medical conditions of minors transported to US schools....

<><> contagion status of contaminated Border-holding facilities;

<><> contagion status of contaminated public transportation used to relocate minors.......

<><> dangers to Americans from contaminated illegals handling our food, merchandise....

<><> relief for taxpayers forced to subsidize contagious children in their classrooms....

Murguia is outraged because she believes Mexico borders Canada and these gringos chanting “USA” are in her country of Mexico.

From a related thread ...

”The Supreme Court has ruled that schools have an obligation to educate all students regardless of their immigration status, …”

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Not only is the italicized statement above concerning the Supreme Court’s ruling about schools being obligated to educate all students vague, no specific case mentioned, but please consider the following. The Founding States made the 10th Amendment to clarify that the Constitution’s silence about things like public schooling and immigration means that such issues are automatically state power issues.

So not only does the Supreme Court’s ruling about public school obligations have no obvious constitutional support, but the constitution’s silence about public schooling also means that there is no constitutional right to schooling even if you are a citizen.

And speaking of the constitutional rights of citizens, please consider the following excerpts which reasonably indicate that constitutional protections are guaranteed only for citizens.

So even if the states had amended the Constitution to make schooling a right, such a right wouldn’t necessarily apply to illegal aliens.

Again, wherever the statement about the Supreme Court ruling on school obligations to illegal aliens came from, it has no constitutional basis imo.

The bottom lines is that the feds need to respect the 10th Amendment-protected voice of majority voters on this issue.

Agreed. We can’t afford to fund Obama’s Save the Children Amnesty / Bankrupt the USA using Cloward Piven tactics programs. The man needs to be tossed out on his head; he has absolutely no business running a government except into the ground...which he is very good at...

It occurs to me that you’ve got to be pretty far up in the 0.1% or higher wealth chain to not care. It means not only that you can use the labor, but also that you live in a secure enclave where you and your family are protected. That kind of safety is temporary and illusory.

I am okay with that as long as the housing is under armed guard and in tents, and the food is bread and water.

Anything else needs to not be on the public dime. WayneS can house and feed them himself as lavishly as he wishes at his own home though - providing they are prevented from wandering about. Otherwise, no sale.

CA voters passed prop 187 and a judge knocked it down. The ones in power don’t care what the people want, until we make them care.

What entitles non citizens to an education paid for by citizens other than gov’t proclamation?

People are saying that the children are not entitled the same rights as American citizens.

For that to be true, the 14th amendment will need to be revised to change the two usages of the word 'person' in Section 1 to 'citizen'. Then we wouldn't have all of this crap to begin with.

Just love how they phrase it. “Should be denied.” Like those cruel, selfish voters are “denying” illegal children something to which they’re entitled. Maybe the voters decided that Americans should not be deprived of their tax money, neighborhoods, health, emergency rooms, good schools, etc.

The territory of lords and royalty, to be exact. Much like the powers to be in DC and other bastions of wealth seem to fancy themselves, that marxists loathe, yet secretly aspire to become.
