Undocumented student Yahaira Carrillo won't be deported; talks to New York Times

Yahaira Carrillo probably won't be sent back to her native Mexico.
​It appears, despite her best efforts, undocumented Kansas City resident and Rockhurst University student Yahaira Carrillo won't be deported after all.

Back in May, Carrillo was arrested for taking part in an immigration protest inside U.S. Sen. John McCain's Tuscon office. Carrillo was advocating for the stalled DREAM Act, a law before Congress that would give undocumented immigrants who were younger than 16 when they arrived in the U.S. a path to permanent, legal residency.

Carrillo, who came to this country from Mexico when she was 7, told the New York Times on Sunday that coming out as an illegal immigrant was a good decision. "I don't have to hide," she told the Times, "I don't have to make excuses as to why I can't take certain jobs or scholarships." The story says that Carrillo is probably going to be safe from deportation because the Obama administration is focusing on deporting illegal immigrants that are committing crimes, rather than those going to college.

That's good news for three other KC area students arrested during DREAM Act protests in Washington, D.C., in July.

Erin Fleming, the KS/MO DREAM Alliance's policy and media director, wrote in an e-mail a little more than a week ago that she believed the students will remain the U.S. "They have [their] court dates in two weeks in D.C. As far as we know, ICE will not be intervening."

Now the question is: How many times can these students get arrested at protests before ICE brands them as criminals and deports them?

So we leave this loud-mouthed arrogant illegal here, plus her arrogant countrymen, to trash our legal system and spit in the face of Americans? There are more definitions to "criminal" than we can number! We will see much more of her marching and shrilly screaming for her rights to a free education and total tax-payer funded care cradle to grave!

The bottom line is: If you're Hispanic..........
