A Texas school district has sent a warning to parents that border patrol agents could be boarding school buses to check the citizenship status of students.

    A story about reports about a thing that may be happening.

    I doubt ICE wastes resources on this. It would be a clusterfuck for them as no child can prove his citizenship status. ICE has far easier targets. This is the sort of thing that happens way down the road when they’re running out of low-hanging fruit.

        Texas officials also said it was ok to ban abortion because they would end the posibility of rape… how is that going?

          Yeah, they’re probably lying. But for the moment, there is no report of ICE actually raiding a schoolbus that I could find. Just one rumor in SanFran.

          I find that it is important to be correct in fact, even when you disagree with someone.

      They’d only have to do it a couple of times to get potentially-affected folks to pull their kids out of school. Fear can be a goal.

      people been saying this for years. I don’t disagree but you don’t gamble with that
