LYNN, Mass. -- Lynn is a municipality on the brink. Key department officials say a recent influx of illegal immigrant children and families in the city is stressing almost every service from trash collection to healthcare.

"We have been aware of the unaccompanied children issue for quite a while, and we were able to absorb a lot of these children early on," said Lynn Mayor Judith Flanagan Kennedy. "But now it's gotten to the point where the school system is overwhelmed, our health department is overwhelmed, the city's budget is being sustainably altered in order of accommodate all of these admissions in the school department."

Flanagan Kennedy says the first contact for immigrant arrivals in the city is the school system.

The amount of new foreign born student admissions has nearly doubled in the last two years. This school year alone saw more than 600 new admissions. Among those students, 248 were from Guatemala. Flanagan Kennedy says of those 248 children, 126 were illegal, undocumented minors.

True, Bloody Sam Roberts. I would prefer to stay here if I live long enough to retire, but, unless something miraculous happens and people think with their minds instead of reacting to the (D) next to a candidate’s name, forget it. We’re done here.

I don’t think Obama is after the same end result as Cloward-Priven. Someone needs to look into the Black Panther Manifesto to see what I feel is Obama’s true goal. They advocated creating a new country within the borders of the US, and if Obama can manage to destroy our current USA via Cloward-Priven to achieve that goal then he will.

The Scott Brown debacle did it for me. That any sane, reasonably intelligent person could vote for Elizabeth Warren is beyond my capacity to comprehend. Unless, of course, the election was rigged. Which it probably was. Either way, I’m done with all of it. Local politics and issues are where my concerns are until I can bug the eff outta this crap hole. I’m looking at Tennessee.

Yeah get this. I was reading somewhere that schools are preparing to take in these kids. WHAT THE FORK? These kids are no only diseased, but they have NO health records, NO educational records, NO English language. Some of these kids are MS-13.

SO, school districts that hold us to account with all kinds of documentation to enroll our American born inoculated kids are just going to open the doors to these infested invaders? Do they think they will be immune? Where are the teachers unions? This is outright insanity.
