Torrey your opinions are your own, and I respect that. I certainly hope you are not passing your intolerance on to your children. I also hope that Santa brings you a history book for Christmas. Stop hating, life is too short

My intolerance for illegal immigrants, outsourced labor to other countries and all that goes with what is WRONG with society in this country presently, is being soaked up like a sponge, thanks by my son.
We need to teach real values and the right things to our kids, otherwise you have crap like Columbine happen.

The connection between Columbine and illegal immigration is ludicrously palpable, especially since the killers were white, as well as most of the other students at the school… not to mention the entire town!
There was no connection. Obviously in your ignorance you did not interpret the information correctly. I suggest you go read it all again very slowly.
I lived AND taught ESL for 17 years in inner-city Los Angeles in a HIGH SCHOOL.
You have no idea who you are talking to.

No thanks, they can learn BEFORE they come across the water - LEGALLY.
Ok, now I am laughing until my eyes are watering.....that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. A bunch of over-wealthy white kids shooting up other wealthy white kids is now because of illegal immigration? Guess you have a different news channel than I do.

How do you even know they LIVE here? Maybe they were visiting.
You were WAY out of line here. In fact, how ticked would you be if you visited France and some French person came up to your child who had learned some French in school and went off on you like you did on that poor family?
This is what has been bugging me most about this post. You are rude and out of line and proud of it.....

One of the problems we see is foreigners developing into their own 'little societies' and immigrants not making any effort to learn English.
I was in a grocery store one day about a year ago when a Mexican couple and two small kids were walking into an aisle and one of the kids turned to the other and started speaking in English to him. The father smacked him and said "You speak Spanish, you are a Mexican". I walked up to him and said "Mister, you live in America, and you should be telling that kid to speak English because this is his country, not Mexico". To which the man replied "We are Mexicans, not Americans". My last words? "Then why don't you take yourself and your little group of Mexicans here, and get your ass back across to your OWN country if you don't want to be Americans." That started him walking the other way cussing in Spanish and dragging his wife/kids with him.
These people try to come here and develop their own little version of Mexico in our country, rather than learn our language and learn to integrate with our society here.
To those who would disagree with me and call me a racist etc, I suggest you sell everything you own and move out of the USA if you don't wish to support it.
Yes this is the land of the free, for those who have a right to it.
