Immigration Madness: Give 'Em A Vote

From the Mercury News:
In a push to get more immigrants involved in their children's education, San Francisco officials are considering asking voters in November to give parents who are not U.S. citizens the right to vote in school board elections.

Under the proposed ballot initiative, even illegal immigrants would be able to vote, so long as they are parents with kids in public schools.

If the effort succeeds, San Francisco would become the first city in California to join a growing number of cities across the country that have adopted similar laws in recent years. The move could open the door for other cities or counties in the immigrant-rich Bay Area to follow suit.

Matt's Chat

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! If you are NOT a citizen, you do NOT get the right to vote. Even if it is just for school board. Illegals should be arrested when they show up at the polls if anything.

Complete, consummate, downright, entire, flat out, free, full, infinite, outright, plenary, sheer, simple, straight out, supreme, thorough, total, unabridged, unadulterated, unconditional, unlimited, unqualified, unrestricted, pure, utter, without limit the WORST idea I have ever heard. Give liberals an inch and they will demand a mile every time. This must be stopped.

Question: What other cities have this already in place? I've not heard of any...

Mark's Remarks


This is another effort by the Left to increase a voting bloc. You see, they no longer care about citizens' rights either; just like they don't care about our soldiers dying while they politicize everything....it is all about power and avarice for the Left, and they will shatter our rights, trample on them, and extend them to people who violate the law of the land in order to simply get power. It is not about what is right, it is about power for the Left.
