RSSThe Formerly Great State of Texas, Part Two
Gene Lalor | November 28, 2010
In terms of sheer revulsion, the actions of some student nitwits attending the taxpayer-supported University of Texas at San Antonio are no match for how some people of the formerly great state of Texas treated the rape of a 16 year old high school student at Silsbee High School.
In that matter, outlined in “The Formerly Great State of Texas, Part One,” said student, identified only as Hillaire, endured not only the pain and humiliation of being raped by fellow student, Rakheem Jamal Bolton and his cohort in crime, Christian Paul Rountree, +and&imgSize=12808&hostName=www.amren.com "Rakheem Bolton (left) and")
but then was subjected to rejection by her school and community apparently since she was merely a cheerleader and Rakheem was a valued basketball star.
Adding vile insult to injury, the nimrod school administration at Silsbee threw her off the cheerleading squad because she refused to cheer for her rapist: http://tiny.cc/2u9vo
The offenses of the taxpayer-supported UT-San Antonio students don’t come close to the horrendous nature of the offenses against the Hillsbee cheerleader. They were more akin to testimony of UT-San Antonio students’ ignorance.
As of last count, almost 50 of those students, including temporary student reinforcements from other Texas schools, are engaged in a hunger strike to intimidate Texas Republican Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison into voting for the deviously-titled Dream Act. The reinforcements will only fast for 24 hours rather than risk losing too many pounds in the extended hunger strike which had lasted 13 days as of November 22nd.
No sense going overboard even in a good cause, right?
Protest leader Lucy Martinez, a somewhat less than lovely sophomore 
and, not surprisingly, a Mexican and Women’s Studies major at UT-San Antonio and herself an illegal, explained the protest rationale: “There’s 2.1 million of us out there, it’s not like just five or 10 people who decide to go on a hunger strike just to do it. . . You have to eat, you can’t have your kids starving.”
As of now, Sen. Hutchison has told the Dream protestors to stuff it and keep on protesting, if they wish, but she still won’t vote for the farce: http://tiny.cc/6nhg2
It appears that few if any have cited American immigration law to Ms. Martinez or reminded her that she is an illegal alien in our country or told her she should be jailed and deported rather than taking up space in a taxpayer-subsidized Texan university when she isn’t protesting, or that her illegal alien buddies who have sucked dry the American teat and graduated from our schools and now are waiting tables and changing sheets could instead be in Mexico waiting for their next meal and exchanging rancid enchilladas for stale enchilladas.
That “Dream Act” with which Ms. Martinez is so enamored and committed isn’t an “act” at all since it has not been passed by the United States Congress. It has more aptly been termed the “Nightmare Act” since, if passed, it is nightmarish to all but America’s illegal-alien-loving leftists.
The Nightmare Act, if and when it’s passed by the lame-duck Democrats and signed into law by President Obama, who can’t wait to affix his signature to it before saner Republicans take over the House of Representatives in January, would represent the initial step toward granting amnesty and, eventually, citizenship to the millions of illegal aliens now claiming squatting rights in the United States.
The proposed legislation, technically, the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act, hence the “DREAM” acronym, has been kicking around Congress for almost a decade. Only recently, as Democrats calculated the number of new Dems the bill would gather to the party fold, the Dream Act has gained new attention.
It would provide for laying out a welcome mat to illegals and for granting “conditional permanent residency” to alien minors of good moral character who graduate from an American high school and who have lived here for at least 5 consecutive years and who then serve in our military for at least two years or, and here’s the kicker, who have completed at least two years in an American college or university.
Aside from the question as to whether an illegal who by definition lacks “good moral character,” there are a few other, inconsequential, limitations and restrictions but that’s the gist of the Dream Act.
Personally, I could be persuaded to grant that “conditional permanent residency,” not citizenship or voting rights, to illegals who serve our country. Maybe, maybe, award the sacred privileges of citizenship and voting to their children.
As for granting that beneficence to people such as Lucy Martinez and her ilk whose only contribution to America has been not consuming our food for 13 days, I’d say, “Thank you, Lucy! Now go away!”
I’d suggest she and her ilk re-adopt the goofy college prank of old and swallow a few goldfish if that weren’t considered cruelty to animals today.
A final suggestion would be that UT-San Antonio hire a few buses, a fleet of Greyhounds, if necessary, to transport malcontent illegals, who shouldn’t be here in the first place, back to their homelands south of the border.
That trip wouldn’t do anything to help Hillaire but it would go a long way if Texas wants to re-claim its status as great.
