You People are All the Same

Come on folks, is it the 1940's??? Is it so bad to learn a second language?? I am as anti as everyone about the recent administration's stance on immigrants. But for Fucks sake.....

On Tuesday in a Spanish-language class at Holy Family High School, a single handful of students used heated and inappropriate rhetoric in a discussion on immigration. In a class of approximately 30 students, fewer than six students voiced strong anti-immigration opinions. The remaining two-thirds of the class were silent or voiced support for immigrants. At the end of the discussion, one student inappropriately said "white power," two or three times. Most of the students in the class did not hear the comments. Contrary to media reports, there were no chants by more than one student. Two students, who were offended, asked to leave the classroom and were given permission to leave. However, the discussion ended when other students realized how these students were affected and all of the students remained until the end of class.

Money quote?
None. I dont like illegal folks as much as anyone, but why do Skinhead chants have to be involved?
