      Actually read the context of how and why he said it. It’s absurd he was suspended. This is gong to cost the school a lot of money.

        “illegal aliens who need green cards”

        That’s not a clarifying question, it’s a politically loaded statement. That’s why the headline only says “suspended for saying illegal alien” and not the whole context because it sounds better that way.

          Based on the statement from the teacher and the student. I see nothing political about his statement. It was a clarifying question and the legal term is illegal alien.

            the legal term is illegal alien

            Sure, but not “illegal alien who needs a green card,” which is needlessly inflammatory.

            If a kid raises a hand in class and asks if a historical figure is 7-11 brown or 9/11 brown, it’s certainly a clarifying question asking if the person in question is Indian or middle eastern, but it’s also incredibly uncalled for and they should be punished.

              In context of the question. I don’t see an issue. Illegal aliens lack green cards. The kid was asking a clarifying statement.

    There was a time within the current generation that government documents menion illegal aliens. Anyone who was not granted permission from border patrol to enter any country is an illegal alien. There are no rights and no legal protections fot anybody who is an illegal legal in any country.

      What a stupid thing to say. It’s illegal to murder anyone regardless of immigration status.

      But I guess the guy who thinks he should be able to own an RPG isn’t really that thoughtful about the nuance of law.

        You can own an rpg under federal law. So if he thinks that, he’s correct.

          You specialize in taking the smallest distraction you can to derail a discussion.

          I could equally say that you’re free to own a machine gun in this country even though they’re practically impossible to get (just like true grenades used in an RPG). And you may notice how I used the word “should.”

          You also may have noticed my actual point though that everyone has rights in the US regardless of immigration status, as they are granted through the Constitution and affirmed through libraries of case law. BUT LOOK OVER THERE!!!

            You made a false claim.

            Owning a machine gun isn’t hard. You just fill out the forms and wait for the background check. It isn’t practically impossible unless you have a criminal history.

            The word should is a silly word to use. You can legally own one in this country. How often do you hear of an RPG being used in a crime, and they legal to own.

            Maybe instead of trying to make personal attacks against someone, focus on the topic.

              Goddamn that’s funny coming from you.

              Meanwhile you continue to focus on a distraction. Is this thread about guns? Then focus on the topic.

                Then why did you bring them up? I don’t get why lefties feel the need to bring up irrelevant things to try to make a personal attack and then scree when called out on it.

                I don’t make personal attacks.

              There is a limited amount of machine guns manufactured before May 19, 1986.
