johnf Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 This was the question posed to me today by one of my sixth graders in band today. My respose... Q: Have you ever been to Six Flags? A: Yes Q: How did you get in? A: With a ticket. Q: Where did you get the ticket? A: My mom bought it. Q: If you climbed the fence into Six Flags what do you think should happen? A: I should get kicked out? Q: Why should you get kicked out? A: Because I broke the law. Q: What if your whole family climbs the fence? A: We should all be kicked out. Q: What if 100 people climb the fence? A: They should all be kicked out. Q: What if 1000 people break into six flags and refuse to leave when they are caught? A: They should be sent to jail. They're breaking the law. That's why these people should leave. There is a way to get into this country legally and get a job and hae a home and a car and a drivers license. Illegal allians are breaking the law by coming to this country the way they come. If they do it the right way they don't have to leave........................ Her comment- Oh.

Canadian_Goose Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Why are they trying to kick all those people out? unfortunately the us government doesnt have the budget to arrest or deport all of the illegal immigrants. And you guys were scared of the metric system, I can't immagine how much this would put you in the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJR Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Why are they trying to kick all those people out? [ QUOTE ] Thats exactly the point... See, even kids understand. [/ QUOTE ] I agree with that, the big problem that I see is that the Congress, both the House and especially the Senate, does not understand anything anymore about what is going on! The Senate has lost what little credibility it had as far as I am concerned! Terrible!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowJoe Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Re: Why are they trying to kick all those people out? I wouldn't go saying we are scared of the metric system. I'd more say that our system works just fine the way it is. When you shoot a bow or gun, do you measure in meters or yrds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drkillemquick Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Re: Why are they trying to kick all those people o meters. however when I go to the lumber yard I still have to buy 2 X 4's etc, so when I am building things it is in inches, feet etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ QUOTE ] unfortunately the US government doesnt have the budget to arrest or deport all of the illegal immigrants. [/ QUOTE ] I was thinking about this the other day. I wonder how much our spending on healthcare, schools, and other public facilities has increased because of the illegal aliens. If the US could put a number on that they might find it cheaper to arrest and deport illegal aliens or, they might find that it is cheaper to leave them where they are. I don't think we will ever know the answer but, it would be interesting to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
