Other countries issue birth certificates and you can have a tax id # without a ssn. Plus many kids of undocumented were born here, they're American...

no if you are born in the us illegal parents or not you will have a birth certificate and ssn
@Mountainlady16: Right because if they were born in the US they are American. They have a right to be here just like you do...

@TheAllMighty: im talking about children brought here illegally or in the case those 2 rapists in maryland came here and enrolled in public school.
@Mountainlady16: If they're illegal they can use a foreign birth certificate to prove age and tax id if needed for tax purposes. P.S. most of the rapes in the US are committed by US citizens, as well as most crime.

@TheAllMighty: but the fact those 2 boys are not even supposed to be here

@TheAllMighty: i dont know alot about the whole illegals in public schools thing i attended public for only 2 years prek and kindergarten. than from 1st thru 9th i attended a private school ran by my church and am now homeschooled.

@TheAllMighty: and my private school expelled illegals or the children of illegals if discovered
@Mountainlady16: I hope the criminal justice system deals with it correctly. Most undocumented people aren't rapists, crime among "illegals" is lower than the legal population. Demonizing an entire demographic because if the actions of 2 idiots doesn't help anything.

@TheAllMighty: an illegal is already a criminal by being here
@Mountainlady16: Your private school isn't behaving in a very kind and Christian manner. Denying children an education because if the actions of their parents? Sounds like a bunch of heartless douchebags

@TheAllMighty: there is public schools all around here for them to go too. fact is the parents came here illegaly neither they nor their children are supposed to be here. our school has limited space and those spots neeed to be given to children whose parents havent broke the law.
@Mountainlady16: Hmmm that's weird, I though Jesus taught kindness and compassion. You turn away children because you decide they don't "belong" here? I wonder what he would say about those actions?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@TheAllMighty: they dont belong here their parents broke the law by coming here. they also turn away kids of parents of "alternative" lifestyles. most the kids that attend the church's school are members of the church. when the grade fills up if any spots are available they do allow nonmembers to take them

@TheAllMighty: the thing is the state can dictate to a private school who they accept or dont accept as students. we have hispanic students. my sisterinlaw is marrying a hispanic guy but his parents are legal. his grandparents came here legally from el salvador when his mom was 6
@Mountainlady16: I don't recall Jesus turning away people that lived lifestyles he didn't agree with. Didn't he welcome everyone into his church? Why is that school so un-Christ like? What does your brother in law being Hispanic have to do with it? Lol

@TheAllMighty: so not to have bad influences around the kids. the bible tells us to that such lifestyles are an abomination in the eyes of the lord.
@Mountainlady16: The kids didn't chose their parents, they're just tying to get an education and live a happy childhood. You're punishing kids for decisions beyond their control. Kinda cruel don't ya think?
@Mountainlady16: what do they think is going to happen? Will the parents lifestyles rub off through osmosis?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
i never heard it happend i do know of a girl that was expelled for coming out as gay. someone told me they do the same for kids with parents like that. i no longer go to the school im homeschooled
@Mountainlady16: If they are gay, what is the harm? If they are illegal, how is that a bad influence?
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
well since our church doesnt accept homosexual members. and the illegals is because of the fact they arent supposed to be here in the first place
@Mountainlady16: Your bible might have some passages that are subject to interpretation regarding homosexuality but as far as the illegals, sounds like youre commiting a sin by not helping those in need and turning children away who have commited no crime.
Mountainlady16 · 22-25, F
@TheAllMighty: the public schools here are good no crimes or gangs like in city schools. the academics just suck.
@Mountainlady16: There are many churches in this country sheltering and protecting illegals because Jesus was pretty clear about fighting for the poor and helpless..
@Mountainlady16: So you follow Christ and his principles until they inconvenience you?
