[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]
Are your kids documented? Did Native Americans document your kids? Or did you have immigrants and their descendants document your kids?
I think the latter. In that case, why can't  Salvadorians living here document the undocumented kids?
I don't understand why people voted for Trump, glad you do, because you don't seem to understand a whole lot other things.

This argument always makes me laugh. Did the Anglo-Saxons document the Norman invaders? Did the Marathas document the Mughals? Did the Gauls document the Romans?

All nations are "settler" nations if you go back far enough. Nation states have laws. Nation states exist only insofar as the laws are enforced.[/quote]

Yeah... not so much.  The reason I absolutely can't get mad at Central Americans coming here illegally is that between about 1906 and 2006, the US sent troops to Mexico and Central America 106 times, in clear violation of those countries' sovereignty and international law, usually to protect the interests of the likes of United Fruit.  We have absolutely zero moral leg to stand on here.

Thank you for bringing this up. I was going to before but didn't have the time. Agree and thank you. [/quote]
