A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
What a teaching moment. The guy (one guy) walks up with the Trump Flag and the students, instead of honoring this man’s right to peaceful protest and free speech…chase him away with violence. Excellent work teachers and organizers…you taught them that the a person’s first amendment right isn’t honored unless you follow the Mob – which amendment was that under?. This type of behavior and the useless teachers who promote it are the cause of most of the violence that exists.
It’s not surprising at all these latine children went into a mob like frenzy. Latines don’t believe in free speech, not by a long shot. Cato did a study in 2017, 75% of hispanics said that hate speech is violence, and 65% of Latines in the US were in favor of a law that bans hate speech against hispanics.

The rest of the desks go to Chinese Nationals – 6000 and counting! Meanwhile, the SEC is taking our best and brightest, often at lower cost to parents that UIUC. Illinois loses tens of thousands of our brightest high school seniors to other states because our university system is a grifting joke that exists… Read more »
Great lawsuit if a student gets injured!! Shows the PARENTS don’t care about their children’s education!!
Schools and teachers need to start focusing on education, not politics. These kids can’t read, but that’s not a problem?
Send a few ICE agents buzzing around and watch the SJW’s with skin in the game run like hell, if they are bold, and stupid, enough to be out there in the first place. Those remaining are just a bunch of indoctrinated idiots.
