How about if she just goes back?
WRONG! She was thrown into jail for being an illegal invader who snuk into our country and was helping suck off the lifeblood from our social support network, our educational system, our medical system, and the taxpayers who were supporting the schools she was parasitizing.
Cruel words, but necessary ones to define the menace America and patriots are facing from their own government and elected officials in both parties who have made a career of collaborating with foreign nations and their nationals to rape and plunder us to satisfy greedy corporate executives who want to benefit from cheap labor.
She graduated HS 5 years ago in 2002, she’s 23 years old, so conscientious, and she’s soooooo smart. Why didn’t she fix her immigration problem a long time ago. I knew whether or not I was a citizen back in HS and I wasn’t valedictorian.
If I were a LEGAL immigrant, I would resent like hell these line jumpers sneaking in front of me when I had followed all the rules, filled out all the forms, paid all the fees, and waited my turn. People like that would have been better off just sneaking across the border like all these parasites do.
And her sob story doesn't move me one bit. My guess is her attorney (probably working pro-bono), helped her manufacture it,
Why doesn’t she give back to her own country in her own country. She’s had a golden opportunity; so she should use it to help her own country while being in her own country.
Did I make myself clear she should return to her own country? :)
Adios muchacha!
Talk about your freakin' entitlement mentality!
Hey, what would you bet she voted for Obama?
Agreed. I'll never understand why legal Mexican Americans are so eager to have illegals come here.
And take their jobs. And crowd their schools. And deplete their economic opportunities.
Legal Mexican Americans are at the "back of the bus" on so many, many levels.
Why? Why do they want even MORE illegals?
Give back...to Mexico...
Veliz’s parents brought her across the border when she was 8 years old.
The last time she visited relatives in Mexico, she was 6.
So, where was she for two years?
This story stinks to high heaven. Send her and her parents back.
In elementary school, Benita Veliz dreaded substitute teachers.
Let's see, she was 8 when she moved here, and presumably spoke no English, or very little. Elementary school back then generally meant K-3, which ends when a child is 9. So, within a year she was a star pupil. Mkay.
“You can make a conscious decision to fight for justice.”
Fifteen years worth of living in this country, getting a free education, and now SHE wants justice.
Yet another bleeding heart article. Barf.
The consequences of Veliz’s status didn’t hit until high school, when her friends began getting drivers’ licenses and jobs at McDonald’s.
And yet they still did nothing to rectify the situation.
“At 14, was I going to drive over to Mexico? And do what? Stay with who?” Veliz said.
Perhaps the parents could have helped her. Oh, wait, that's mean for me to say.
When doctors finally diagnosed and removed the benign tumor, Veliz realized she had been breathing through her mouth for five years.
And who paid all of those doctors bills? She had a benign growth in her nose and this article makes it sound like she overcame some sort of debilitating handicap.
You are correct, this article is insulting.
The beginning of a series of heart wrenching stories from tagged illegals to be synchronuized with Il Douche’s immigration amnesty push.
and if she hit someone and paralyzed them what would happen? no license, no insurance, no desire to follow even the simplest laws. but she'll soak up all the benefits....
get out of here!
Star student? .. then perhaps she understands what the word “illegal” means.
Send her home, send the bill for the amount American Taxpayers paid for her education. .. then allow her to apply for entry legally.
So now the phrase is “unauthorized immigrant?”
Wow, they really, really reach to call them anything except what they reall are.
You’re illegal, Tootsie, hasta luego.
Sooo, in the last 5 years she never attempted to get legal standing to become a legal immigrant?
Sounds to me like she either didn’t trust the system or wanted to avoid the system.
But now we are expected to believe she wanted to give back to the system she either doesn’t trust or want to be engaged with?
...and guilty!
Or am I being to harsh?
Incomplete evidence. There IS a reasonable doubt.
