KLTV 7 News Tyler, Longview, Jacksonville |East Texas Teenager Attacked Over History Project


Quote:
Her sign read, “If you love our nation, stop illegal immigration.” Somehow, Melanie said the sign got passed around lunch and angered a group of Latino students. "I didn't know any of these people," she said. One young, she claimed, jumped on her back and he put her in a choke hold. "We have brick walls in the middle school and he slammed my face on the bricks."

Whether or not you agree with her, she had the right to voice her opinion.

ITA. What's even more amazing is that these are the people who think illegal aliens should have all the rights of American citizens. May 1st will be interesting, to say the least. Now that the sleeping giant has been awakened, I believe this will be the march that will bring Americans out of the woodwork.

People should listen to what Ron Paul said. If you exclude illegals from the benefits American citizens get, they wouldn't come here. There would be no reason to.

Obama wants to give them financial aid to attend college These people don't even pay taxes.

They threatened to rape her and assaulted her yet no one was arrested or even suspended? Something smells really fishy about her story.

It doesn't sound like a fib to me.

Athens ISD gave KLTV 7 a statement, confirming there was a disturbance in the hallway, Friday between two to three students. "We have a camera system in the building," said Louis DeRosa. "We are collecting other information and statements from witnesses and this is all the information we have at this time," he said.

The school indicated that an incident happened between 2 to 3 students, yet the girl claimed it was a group of latino students. Now imo 2 students doesn't equal a group as the girl is claiming.

Agreed, which is why I cannot vote for Obama, Ron Paul will be my write-in candidate. While I respect and admire Obama in many ways, for me race does NOT trump everything. As the descendant of slaves, it is more important to me that my ancestors helped build this country and that many gave their lives for me to be acknowledged as an American. I refuse to watch a bunch of whiney, border jumpers too cowardly to fight for rights in their own country usurp the 14th Amendment and demand everything but the kitchen sink in a country they have illegally invaded. IMHO their arrogance and sense of entitlement without so much as lifting a finger to fight for dignity in their own country denigrates the lives lost in our battle for civil rights and acceptance as equal citizens.
