DREAM Act supporter and Co-Founder of the Tequila Party Movement Shirl Mora James said she’s outraged about the suicide of 18-year-old Joaquin Luna, an illegal immigrant and senior at Juarez Lincoln High School in Mission.
"Maybe it took Joaquin to sacrifice himself, to bring attention to the desperate situation that the Dreamers are in," Mora James said Monday. “These kids are American - they are Americans without status - but they are still Americans!"
Family members said despite Luna’s achievements in school and talent for design, the teen thought he would never reach his goals of becoming an engineer, and providing a better life for his family, since he didn't have a Social Security number to proceed.
"It's unfortunate, but there has been other cases where the kids get desperate (and) they give up,” Mora James said. “This one is more heart wrenching because just last year, were five votes short of passing the DREAM Act."
Cameron County Democratic Party Chair Gilberto Hinojosa said the DREAM Act does not give universal amnesty and most who have analyzed the act, agree it's fair...it's just a few “ultra conservatives” that oppose the act.
"I firmly believe that there's some racist elements to that,” Hinojosa said. “I believe they want to keep America to themselves. They don’t want this country to be the country that it's always been, that welcomes people from all over the world."
Richard Hartwell, founder of the web site Action Dream Team, which also supports the DREAM Act and provides a forum for Dreamers, said Luna’s fears of failing have much merit.

Am I a bad person for not caring about illegal alien’s children anymore either? Seriously, I’m getting to the point where I’m just thinking screw em all. The kids parents should be citizens before the children themselves can be imo. One goes with the other. We have our OWN major problems here in the US why oh why do we have to keep deaking with the bullshite from the criminal Messi-cans as well.
“Maybe it took Joaquin to sacrifice himself, to bring attention to the desperate situation that the Dreamers are in,” Mora James said Monday.
Or maybe, the shameless way that leftists exploit suicide victims, such as that gay Lady Gaga fan recently, glamourizes suicide as an option for kids like Joaquin.

Hilarious source material (( ping )).
You get it!! (with all due respect) This is a Mayan Aztec thing. Their revenge on European occupiers but they are too cowardly to do it against the Spanish elites of Mexico (Central America too) so they come here to tug on the heart strings of dumbass Americans
Quick, let’s pass a bad law because some kids who need counseling might do something dumb if we don’t!
Huh? Were you talking to me or to the voices in your head; it can’t have been me, tho’, ‘cause your response is utterly meaningless.
“We didn’t bring the kid here.”
Damn straight. Nor are we responsible for giving any illegal-alien anything other than a one-way ticket back to the nation that spawned them.
I am so sick of this sh!t: Millions of free-loading illegal aliens demanding that I give them something that they are not entitled to (free education, free housing, tax refunds, free healthcare, US citizenship, a driver’s license, welfare, WIC, and on, and on, and on.)
Geezus H. Crimeny! When is this nation going to pull its head out of its ass, round these criminals up, and send them back where they came from?
Oh, and before some chowder-head says “but, but, but we can’t seperate families from one another,” I suggest we send their illegal spawn back with them if they want to stay together. Problem solved.
Illegal Aliens: Piss on all of them.
