He stole a Piper Cub to visit his grandparents in Mexico and avoid La Migra locking him up.

Guillermo says-—— ANCHOR BABIES HAVE FEELINGS TOO!!! That Jew honkie dentist tried to make me feel like chopped liver. Just because his smarter and more deserving daughter did not get into Stanford while I rode the Mexicano anchor baby express to a 100% free ride.

and VIVA AZTLAN!

Sure, he was—but the dentist’s point was entirely accurate, and this kid is acting as if it is a big accomplishment to complete your own college application. As if he didn’t get into Stanford with his score—which is so low he won’t even admit it in whine here—because he is Hispanic. Pretty clearly he got a 30, which just barely gets him into the 95% range.

That means most likely the kid will either wash out of his biomedical engineering major—or be helped along with his grades throughout.

Maybe not. Maybe he can hack it. But his score suggests he probably can’t. E.g., if the kid were 99% on the math portion of the ACT exam, you can be sure he’d be bragging about that. And having parents who aren’t fluent in English shouldn’t influence that portion of his scores anyway.

I put them both in the jerk category.

You’re most likely not getting into Stanford with that score unless your parents are big donors, you’re affirmative action lucky, or you’re an athlete.

A 31 puts you in the bottom quartile, so a 30 is very safely down in affirmative action and athlete land:

If he was an anchor baby, he should have been sent back with his parents when they should have been sent back 18 years ago.

THEFT

It never dawns on this criminal nitwit that he is stealing something of value from law abiding citizens who have lived by the rules and worked to earn it.

The dentist’s daughter got a higher score and couldn’t even get on the waiting list.

Sounds like the student was miffed because the dentist pointed out the Affirmative Action truth.

firstly -- his family brought him in, so the parents are liable.

Secondly -- if he uses his education for the good of the USA, he does "pay it back"

Thirdly - the native born American Dentist's daughter with higher grades who got stiffed would have paid our country back.

Sounds like the letter writer belittled himself with all his assumptive mind reading

Oh puhleeze. You get to go to Stanford. You won High School! But the rest of your life is much harder and more competitive. Based on this letter, you should major in drama.

After taking a remedial writing class.

This is the first time I have ever heard of a dentist taking it easy on anyone.

Go back to your country punk!

“I didn’t know the government gave away money for orthodontics.”

My leftist neighbor runs a flophouse for anything, including illegals, that can pay his inflated rent. The last batch of illegals, who stuck around for a month, all had expensive SUVs parked in the driveway by the time they left. So I’m assuming that the government (you and me) is now buying vehicles for illegals. BTW, this idiot neighbor will be selling his house soon because we discovered that he doesn’t have an occupancy permit.

Kid is an American attending a private university. In 5 years Americans will be bumped for refugee students.
