I happily live in Eastern MoCo specifically to avoid racist and classist pieces of work like you. Our neighbors are honest, hardworking, family oriented and readily volunteer their limited time and resources to support the community. What’s wrong with free breakfast? That has been a key part of MCPS since I was a local kid in elementary. You can’t stand kids getting dental care? That’s your big problem with the world today? |
Good. It’s the least we can do. Thank goodness you have zero political power around here. Cry about it some more. |
DP The point is.... when you make things attractive for people who enter illegally, you not only discourage them from returning to their home country, but you attract more illegal immigration. That is what is happening today. The migrants are given tons of freebies - even more than some of our own citizens. And, people wonder why they keep coming....... |
Yep. This is why sanctuary cities/counties have more illegal immigrants. Montgomery County rolls out the red carpet of undocumented immigrants and of course, they keep coming droves. It is overwhelming the school system and costing taxpayers millions of dollars. The PP is right though, that voters keep voting for the same policies and voters in Montgomery County support unlimited illegal immigration, so majority rules, I guess. |
| The public schools everywhere are for the poor, overwhelmed and confused families. Fortunately MOCO and DC have the most and best privates. I’d hate to be stuck in public schools anywhere since Covid killed them. |
And, this is why the people in your area keep voting for the same ridiculous people who enact the same ridiculous policies that are not good for the citizens. The "elite" who can afford private school are not at all affected by the immigrant children who arrive who are not able to speak English and who are illiterate in their home language. Fortunately, more and more people are homeschooling and more and more states are choosing to have the money follow the child. Hopefully, others will be able to afford private schools. And, I say this as a former public school teacher for 35 years. The public schools are broken. |
Same for El Salvador. Do you fly out if Dulles frequently? I do. Avianca flights to El Salvador are always full. Even during the pandemic. |
Np. Go take a middle school civics class Grand jury duty means you hear 40+ case summaries times 10+ days from both lawyers a day and decide which should go to jury duty trial next month. So yeah, you prob see the problems in the county, by demographic, pretty quickly and pretty clearly. |
Lol. Sanctuary City freebies at their best. No wonder Montgomery County Maryland is the 2nd most popular destination for illegal aliens to Los Angeles for decades now. Well-earned. |
Open borders, free healthcare for the first time in their life, free 2000 mile bus or plane rides, and donations galore are indeed the least any country in the world would do with 2M uneducated, unskilled, illiterate illegal aliens a year. |
Oh this is awful. |
So what has, in your opinion, enabled this change; local county policies or Maryland state policies? |
Local county policies, for sure. Our local politicians have actively sought to welcome and attract more undocumented immigrants. |
It would be... if it were actually a thing. |
