Guess what, I didn't have a say in allowing their Parents to stay here illegally either. If I had they'd be gone already and we wouldn't be stewing over this child trying to bilk tax payers for more free or reduced services.

I am proud of CO. I lived there until last May. It's time for them to stand up to this invasion.

I lived there back in the 80's and got to see the parts of some towns (Greeley for example) start to resemble a 3rd World. Pretty much all of the town North of 9th turned into an underground economy.

Yep, I lived in Widefield near the base in the Springs for a few years and off Quincy in Denver for a bit as did my Parents. Speaking about illegals, whatcha think of Pueblo?

Colorado isn't even terribly far from the border, kids leave home all the time to go to college, sometimes more than a 12 hour drive from home. There's no good reason that these kids can't go to college back home. In fact American students fairly often study in Mexico just for the adventure and to learn something beyond the neighborhood they grew up in. It's a wonderful experience.

Mexico has some very good universities.
