We are the dumbest country in history

http://cnsnews.com/news/article/penn...public-schools

We let this kind of shit occur? We are beyond the pale when it comes to political correctness and wholesale stupidity.

We deserve to crash and burn and this country is going to be turned into Mexico as we watch..........

the school district was directed by the federal government not to verify the age of the foreign enrollees, Kennedy said.
As our government has patiently explained to you before, illegal immigrants have a right to privacy. Asking for age verification would obviously be a gross violation of their human rights.

Does this mean that the actual undocumented minors cannot be asked for ID to purchase beer?

This opinion piece details the "imaginary scapegoats" discussed in Ralph's link..

But upon closer inspection, Kennedy’s tale of woe doesn’t quite add up. Those kids with wrinkles and gray hair? She admitted she hadn’t seen them herself. And the “surge” of unaccompanied minors Kennedy has felt? It predates the actual surge at the border, which has been building for a couple of years but exploded only in 2014.

Complete with senior class photos of some 18 year olds.

Well, we have to have somebody in that area? Is it real or not?

If it's bullshit, then Lynn Mass is the dumbest city in the country for electing that Mayor.

Btw, if the Mayor made it all up, the Mayor should be recalled.

A reverse google image search reveals the first image from that article only appears in pages talking about the same subject.

Has the school system verified those pic's? That would be interesting to know

"You are a conservative who spreads fear and loathing almost around the clock around here"

Hey JR, you know the fur on the back of stinks neck is standing up with this thread.

It is strange how some feel that it is perfectly normal to turn everything upside down for change. To bring all systems to the breaking point and no one will do or say or even post about it.

Hopefully the gray-haired students will learn the definition of the word "illegal", 'cause that seems to be a problem today.

As I was driving down I-5 south of Seattle yesterday, I saw a bumper sticker on a SUV with the phrase "Immigrant rights are human rights". Seems it's part of this group:

http://www.amnestyusa.org/our-work/c...e-human-rights

The lady driving the SUV was wearing a burka, or something like a burka, covering most of her face and I (assume) all of her hair. If it was a woman. But I thought to myself, this person is probably going to be surprised and outraged some day when a good-old-boy who's been out of work for a couple of years knocks her nice vehicle into the weeds. A sort of 1st Amendment meets Darwin's Law moment....

Not quite, Fast One. Fantastic Dan's link spoiled Ralph's fear and loathing attempt once again.

I'd say the jury is still out. He's tried to spoil my threads before and got turned back. It's not a competition by the way. If the article is wrong, so be it. I'm fair about it. If it's wrong then I can go along.

I would love to know if there really are 20-30 something's enrolling. You have to admit, if it's true........Christ! We are stupid........

I agree if it is true. But that's the point - we have no idea. Yet you still insist on starting this thread with:

"We deserve to crash and burn and this country is going to be turned into Mexico as we watch.........."

Hey Stinks fair question to you, when the crash does occur who should be first over the cliff?

That's more like a trick question!

I don't see a crash in the forseeable future. But, I will say that our eventual downfall may be caused by the have nots revolting against the haves.

Not meant as a trick question, will occur before we die.
If the US dollar is @ 78% now as the standard, maybe I am wrong so feel free to correct me on the percentage. When it is devalued into the 60's how big a 2x4 will one need for his ass? Consequences for today will happen in our lifetime, those who dispute this consumed too many substances they should have abstained from.
