Skye: I don't know what's going on this year, but class is getting worse and worse. I think the teacher just wanted a break today, so she opened it up to talk about current events.
I think she was hoping we'd talk about pop culture or something, but Brian immediately took it to immigration. I could feel the dread sweeping across the teacher's face.
Stacy jumped in and wanted to dunk on Brian. She pulled up this news article about how Texas was interfering with Customs and Border Patrol while complaining about the Federal Government's lack of enforcement. She said it showed how Texas is a bunch of hypocrites.
Brian said it was fake news, and the Feds are letting in so many illegals, Texas has to do something or risk getting flooded, so they're taking control to actually enforce the border.
People were arguing about sanctuary cities, and how Texas bussing immigrants there to dump on those cities is causing a lot of problems.
Some were saying how dangerous and immoral a lot of these border protections were. People were dying and families were being separated. Or how the country was founded on immigrants.
Others were saying a country without borders isn't even a country. And that developed countries can't absorb people at this rate without collapsing.
Brian said the politicians don't even care about what happens to the people or the country, they're just either trying to block or dump people in to sway elections one way or the other. The teacher said illegal immigrants can't vote, but Brian called that more fake news.
What was scary for the teacher was that it almost led to a fistfight several times. What's scary to me is that all these articles people were pulling up said blatantly opposite things, and they all look true.
And what's scariest to me is what happens if two armed government entities decide they have the legal backing to force the other to do something.
