[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh my goodness, you guys DO realize how racist you sound, right? "Hispanics are coming, there goes the neighborhood!" I hate to break it to you, but in the youngest generation, white people are a minority of the population. This means that most urban areas will become mostly non-white. But don't worry! White people don't have the market cornered on moral values or ambition. Also, FARMs kids are not all losers and dregs. In fact, I am a former white FARMs kid and I grew up and now have a HHI that is more than 20x what I grew up with. Things will change, and your white skin won't save you from hard work and adaptation. [/quote]

These kids are illegal.  They can't grow up and work here legally.  Anchor babies, unfortunatly yes but not illegal kids.

And you realize that all these illegal aliens cost not only in FARMS but ESOL now too. We have to pay teachers to teach kids English on our dime in school.  Can you list any other countries in the world that not only allow illegal aliens to go to school in their country for free but take their citizen's taxes and pay for an entire department to teach the kids the language spoken in their country?  Do you realize how insane that is.  Do you see our test scores going down, our ratios going up, our schools doing poorly?  I guess you are oblivious to what the change is.  Where the millions going to help illegal immigrants could contain over-crowding, help ratios, help the LEGAL children living in poverty, get legal parents better jobs, etc.... [/quote]

Well one solution is to make Spanish the official language of instruction in MoCo schools (why not, if Spanish speakers are the majority). Since apparently you're incapable of empathy, I look forward to your kids' struggle with SSOL.[/quote]

So instead of posting other countries that do this like the PP asked,  you go on the defense and say the entire county should teach in Spanish instead?  Brilliant.  [/quote]

Since you're mentioning other countries, this is exactly what many do -- provide education for their minorities in their native language. The suggestion that the whole of MoCo go Spanish was clearly tounge in cheek, and if you can't tell I can't help you.[/quote]

But yet you aren't listing the countries. Please list those countries that have public schools that accept illegal immigrants and teach them the country's native language outside of the classroom with separate teachers, paid for by legal citizen's taxes. I would love to see this list. [/quote]

I meant provide the education of (sizable) minorities in the respective minority language. [/quote]

No one is talking about minorities, we are talking about the influx of Hispanics, most of which are illegal and how our county is paying a huge amount of their budget towards these illegal immigrants, whether it is thru FARMS, ESOL, etc...  You don't increase a population over 125% in less than 15 years no matter how many babies they are popping out.  Unless you think all of these families from El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, etc... applied for citizenship and entered here legally.  Do you believe that?

But out of curiosity, please post these countries that you are talking about.   [/quote]
