This is what my daughter has had to deal with her entire HS experience. The entitlement mentality of the illegal aliens and anchor babies... My daughter was named the white girl.
They gave it to her because of her known illegal status. Misty should have been the Valedictorian, with higher GPA and test scores..
This speech, was the worst self serving spew I have ever sat and listened to at a HS graduation...
The speech started off.....""I always knew I would be standing here today""
1.) Valedictorians get an automatic 1-year scholarship at UT-Austin.
2.) UT-Austin is bound by state law regarding charging in-state tuition to illegal immigrants, regardless of whether they agree with it or not.
I get tired of people pissing on my alma mater just because it's in Austin.

P.S. Deport that nitwit.
Agreed@ I live in austin and its total non-sense that this is allowed to happen.
She should also be deported and given a scholarship by the Mexican government to a university in Mexico City. That would be fair and puts her back where she legally belongs.
