Emory University to give free financial ride to illegals

[Anonymous]

You are welcome.

I have many. Join me on the porch in my rocker, and I'll wax eloquent until I fall asleep mid-sentence.

(That's your chance to go crazy and use the hot water when you wash the dishes.)

You literally just made this up.

I heard they all show up on campus driving low riders and talking on their iPhone 7's.

I donate money every year to my private university, and if I discovered they were diverting some of their funds from Americans to illegal immigrants, I'd stop donating.

This is another example of the lopsided values of liberals.

It's one thing to be compassionate and allow children of illegal immigrants to remain in this country, but only if it doesn't come at the expense to American children. This is exactly what is happening when Emory (which I'm sure gets a good share of its funding from donors) decides to divert money that could have provided help to legal students to the illegal students.

I was curious, so I just researched my university. They only give aid to students here legally.

But my father's university came up as having a special fund for illegals. I'll tell him about. It will be his decision whether to continue donating, but I recall he stopped his donations for a time when an anti-Semitic professor was spewing his hatred. I imagine he'll reallocate that donation to a different educational program.

Good for Emory. Let's close that gap. There's no reason Americans should get special treatment in America.

What?????

You will, others won't. Choice is great, no?

This is the current mindset of progressives; the US is a resource that should be made available to the world.

My son will now be applying as Carlos Ramirez Sanchez.

No documentation, no ID, but a full ride.

Nice.

Unless your a legal American student in the application process, then not so much. Choice is not always fair.

I'm quite literally never going to argue with someone who doesn't want to spend their discretionary income at a certain place or on a certain thing. Not if they don't want to donate it to Emory as an alum, or if they don't want to buy Nestle products, or if they boycott new copies of Orson Scott Card books, or if they chose not to shop at minority-member-owned businesses.

Have at it. Buy or support whatever you want that is legal, so long as it is your discretionary income.

I also expect members of a community to have knock-down, drag-out verbal fights about where and how we spend our pooled money, but to still follow on the rules established by our laws, including taxation, and I think it's important to make necessary services for members of the community to be free of religious or discriminatory requirements. So I support people arguing about how the resources within public universities supported by tax dollars (and often established by land grants) are allocated.

Have at that, too. I may disagree with you, but I won't argue your right to your opinion and your defending it.

But if you don't know the difference, I might just snort softly to myself and make judgments about your level of sense.
