Matt, you’re a college student…and as such the expectation is that you’ll do a little research (i.e. read what’s in front of your face) before boring us to tears (yet again) with your rancid diatribes.

“For students to be eligible for the DREAM Act, the student or their parents must have been paying taxes from the time they are in high school through the time they graduate college, the student cannot be convicted of a felony and the student must have attended a Maryland high school or be attending a Maryland university.”

” criminals get in state tuition instead of punishment is both illegal and immoral.”

You do know education while incarcerated REDUCES the recidivism, right?

Does that include German immigrants that have been here for 65+ years?, Irish immigrants that have been here for 40+ years? I’m just curious what your limitations are. I know several German’s who fled the war and came to America that have never become legal…so, should these ‘law-breakers’ get sent back to Germany? Yes, let’s send them back to make you happy. It’s alright, because you’re right (sarcasm).

You are totally right, they are all good kids let’s just throw out the laws of our country and give free tuition for everyone! Or we can enforce our laws, secure the border, and deport all illegal immigrants (and yes that includes children)… cause ya know, that is what the law says. The idea that American citizens from New Jersey, Virginia, or any other state have to pay out of state tuition and criminals get in state tuition instead of punishment is both illegal and immoral.

@Matt H: Supporting the Dream Act is a good cause. These kids were forced into this country — raised as [insert country here]/Americans. Many of these kids didn’t know that they were illegal until they went to get their first job…so why put the blame on the children for what the parents did?

If they were forced into this country, forced to live American customs, why shouldn’t they stay? The American life is the only life they know. They contribute to American traditions, American customs, and live the so-called American Dream. With this act, they can take advantage of becoming citizens and to legally become a part of this ‘great’ nation we live in.

You’re a bigot and you make this institution look really bad (and I’m putting that lightly).

Supporting illegal immigrants who are breaking the laws of this nation.. Yep that makes sense Towson

“We cannot continue to allow illegal immigration. A country that loses control of its borders is not a country. The Constitution of the United States obligates the government to protect the states from foreign invasion. If we can send an army halfway around the world to defend the borders of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, why can’t we defend the borders of the United States? I will build a security fence. We will seal the borders of this country cold. We will stop the illegal immigration in its tracks. ” -Pat Buchanan
