[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, why shouldn't schools be required to report undocumented students?   I'm troubled by the implication that being undocumented is perfectly A-OK.  It isn't.

That attitude is why a lot of people went for Trump.  I didn't, but I understand why people did.[/quote]

Because presumably their parents are the ones who broke the law, not the students. [/quote]

Really funny considering how many people have no problem reporting people they think come from MD or VA.  The kids aren't the ones breaking the law in that situation either.[/quote]

Maybe--just maybe--it has to do with the severity of the consequences for the children.[/quote]

So by extension, if the consequences of your criminal behavior are severe (because they're designed to be severe because it's a more serious crime) then you should get away with it?  We should only punish less severe crimes?

Let's let all the murderers out of prison, but keep in the guys who were selling dime bags on the corner?  (After all the consequences of the one are just too severe!  We can only punish those whose offenses are less severe...)

Were the children selling dime bags on the corner, PP? You seem very eager for punitive measures against children who had no input into their situations.[/quote]
