Consider cheap tomatoes
From your friend in California . . .
 
 
This email is from a retired former teacher whose wife is still teaching in the Riverside area

and has been for many years. The following is first hand knowledge . . .

As you all listen to the news about the student protests over illegal
immigration there are some things that you should be aware of.

As most of you know my wife is in charge of the English-as-a-second-
language department at large southern California high school, which is
designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower
socio-economic and income levels. Most of the schools you are hearing
about-South Gate High, Bell Gardens, Huntington Park, etc.-where these
students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.
 
My wife tells me that 100% of the students in her school and other Title 1

schools are on the free breakfast, free lunch program. When I say free
breakfast I'm not talking a glass of milk and roll...but a full breakfast and

cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste

of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash

uneaten.
 
She estimates that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least

moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones.
 
The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant

girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience

of having to arrange for baby-sitters or having family watch their kids.
 
She was ordered to spend $700,000 on her department or risk losing
funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for
anything; her budget was already substantial. She ended up buying new
computers for their computer learning center; half of which, one month
later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who
obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America.
 
She has had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers
whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the
country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female
teachers, calling them "Putas" (whores) and throwing things that the
teachers were in tears.
 
Free medical, free education, free food, day care etc., etc., etc. Is it any

wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights,

privileges and entitlements?
 
To my bleeding-heart liberal friends who want to point out how much these

illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they like their gardener

and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes, spend some time in

the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs. Higher insurance,

Medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of

education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases etc., etc., etc. 

 

For me, I'll PAY MORE for tomatoes!
 
We need to wake up. Any guest worker program will be a disaster because we

won't have the guts to enforce it. And does anyone in their right mind really

believe these invaders will leave and return voluntarily?
 
There are many hardworking Hispanic/American citizens that contribute to our

country and many that I consider my true friends.  We should encourage and

accept those Hispanics who have done it the right and legal way.
 
This does have everything to do with culture:  A third-world culture that does

not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out

of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate . . . and an American culture that

has become so weak and politically correct that we don't have the will to do

anything about it.
 
If this makes your blood boil, as it did mine, then please forward this to everyone

you know who still loves our country.

"Your" a racist?  The contraction, Alvarado, is "You're", not "Your".  Learn English

or get out of my country!
