But he's illegal!

Eric Balderas is a student at Harvard. The newspaper says he's "from San Antonio." But that's not right. Someone who is "from San Antonio" lives there legally. Eric does not. He's been in the country illegally for 15 years. He is, in reality, from Mexico.

And he may be headed back to Mexico. He was detained by ICE when he tried to board a plane in San Antonio using a Mexican consulate card and his student ID. He said this ploy had worked before, so he thought it would again. He said he used to travel on a Mexican passport until he lost it.

Eric attends Harvard on a full scholarship. Wonder which American citizen was cheated out of a Harvard education by that? Anyway, Harvard is supporting Eric. "Eric Balderas has already demonstrated the discipline and work ethic required for rigorous university work, and has, like so many of our undergraduates, expressed an interest in making a difference in the world."

But he's a cheat. He's dishonest. He's ILLEGAL!

But that doesn't matter much in our society anymore. Eric recently participated in "coming out" day. No, so far as I know he's not gay. It was a "coming out" day for illegals to flaunt their illegal status in the face of law-abiding citizens. Homosexuals and illegals -- next is "coming out" for murderers and rapists. After all, doesn't Jesus accept everybody?
