Thread: Student's deportation roils New Mexico town

It's been over two months now, but the LA Times is stull crying over the deportation of a pregnant unwed teenage Mexican national- she was so close to racking up that anchor baby.

ROSWELL, N.M. -- This conservative city on the barren eastern plains of New Mexico long had been spared the acrimonious debates over illegal immigration that have racked so much of the Southwest.

That is, until December, when immigration enforcement entered the murky terrain of the local high school.
A school security officer stopped Karina Acosta, an 18-year-old pregnant Roswell High School senior, and discovered she was in the country illegally. He called federal immigration authorities, who swiftly deported her.

The district superintendent protested and the officer was removed from the school and transferred back to the city Police Department. About three dozen angry students and parents marched on police headquarters -- a notable event in a town not accustomed to controversy -- and were met by a handful of counterdemonstrators who backed the officer.

The schools suffered a sudden drop in attendance as students whose parents were in the country illegally kept them home. The local newspaper was peppered with angry letters to the editor denouncing illegal immigrants. And even two months later, unease permeates the community.

"What shocked me more than anything is what it did to this town," said Coreta Justus, one of Acosta's teachers. In the classroom, she said, "you can feel the difference vibrating from the students. I don't think they have those safety feelings anymore. School used to be a very safe place."

Well, I'll tell you what, teacher: the US public schools aren't supposed to be little sanctuary cities for illegals in the first place. Tell them schools back in Mexico are "safe" for them, in Spanish, of course.

"What shocked me more than anything is what it did to this town," said Coreta Justus, one of Acosta's teachers. In the classroom, she said, "you can feel the difference vibrating from the students. I don't think they have those safety feelings anymore. School used to be a very safe place."

Notice that the writer doesn't include a comment from someone who is against illegal immigration. It's always a sob story from someone with a latin name.

Idiot illegal aliens are either stupid or play stupid appear to have no conception of the term ILLEGAL. So, for all idiot or stupid (or both) illegal aliens, here is a definition you must come to terms with if you enter the United States without a visa, enter the United States without inspection or overstay a visa:

ILLEGAL:
1.) Unlawful; illegitimate; illicit; unlicensed.
2.) Illegal, unlawful, illegitimate, illicit, criminal can all describe actions not in accord with law.
3.) Illegal refers most specifically to violations of statutes.
4.) Prohibited by law

In case there are still stupid idiot illegal aliens that still don't understand, let me summarize: ILLEGAL is ILLEGAL!!! Comprender?

Columbus NEW MEXICO was attacked by Poncho Villa from MEXICO around 1920 or so and like 30 Americans were killed. Villa was mad that Washington decided to support one of the other revolucionaries during Mexico's revolution.

China sent 300,000 troops across the Yalu River in 1950. We have fought a war with China (not Russia) and have been attacked by Mexicans. Just to refresh anyone's memories!

BOTTOM LINE:
Your illegal? You get deported. Period.

A Band should have played "ANCHORS AWAY" as she crossed OUR NATIONAL BORDER into "her" Home Country!!

She was so close to hitting the anchor jackpot!

My bet is she will find her way across the border just in time to give birth on US Soil to secure anchor status.

She fought the law and the law won...end of story!
