-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
A letter signed by at least a half a dozen senators asks for “common sense” civilian immigration policing around schools, arguing that “if society can agree that alcohol, tobacco and drugs should be kept at least 1,000 feet away from our schools, surely we can agree that tear gas—a chemical weapon which causes burning, pain, skin inflammation and respiratory distress—and other violent DHS tools and tactics also belong on that list.”

Audio and summary
“Common sense immigration” and illegals should not be used in the same sentence when discussing any use of taxpayer dollars those people haven’t legally earned. That applies to using tax dollars to enroll kids in school without them officially applying for citizenship.
Tell Ducksnort to go fly a kite- and try not to crash it.
I demand that duckworth grow new legs and stop insulting all of our intelligence. Neither is going to happen.
The DUCK wants to prohibit where law enforcement does it’s job. You would think that an elected official would want citizens to be protected by law enforcement, but apparently not, she would rather ignore the fact that there are US Citizens involved and focus only on the impact on illegal immigrants and their children who shouldn’t be in a tax payer funded public school. Again – no common sense. Retire DUCK.
