.@JB_Cox: most would consider Penn a slightly lesser school than Harvard, and much lesser vis-a-vis admission to the "corridors of power".

@24AheadDotCom The "they'll be fine" comment is from experience: I was admitted to Harvard, went elsewhere (not Penn), still got to Yale Law

.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom What if they lost a scholarship to a DREAMer? Can't just get a "lesser scholarship" and be okay.

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Not quite what I said, esp. as I didn't accept the premises of the question (as I also stated).

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Give me an example of that happening.

From @JB_Cox
@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom And DREAMers *are* "Americans" - just don't have papers yet. They're not going anywhere, so don't waste talents.

.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom DREAMers are "Americans?"Like the students at LiveOakHighSchool who are offended by the flag? http://t.co/VaZ20xGf8c

.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom If they are "Americans," why don't they want to speak our language? http://t.co/2haJakKcet

.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom I'm not certain how to find specific examples. Any time a #DACA recipient gets a scholarship, someone else doesn't.
Glaivester's avatar
From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom Or are you arguing that #DACA or #DREAMAct will increase scholarship availability to compensate?

@Glaivester @JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom And ultimately a poorer, less fortunate, born American citizen gets cut for a DREAMer from up the ladder.

From @JB_Cox
@ThenTheJudgment @Glaivester @24AheadDotCom That's not how it works. See supra re: supply not being fixed & how many colleges take everyone.
Justin Cox's avatar
From @JB_Cox
@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Not true. There are many DREAMer-specific scholarships. And DREAMers have inspired many to create new ones.

.@Glaivester "We" have many languages. Lo siento que no lo entiendes. @24AheadDotCom

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom That's not what that case was about. Read the opinion.

@JB_Cox @Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Guess magical "infinite supply! infinite spots!" thinking really is a mainstay of pro-immigration types.

From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom English is the American language. It just doesn't have the papers yet.
Glaivester's avatar
From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom So you are tacitly admitting that by calling DREAMers "Americans" you are endorsing a linguistically disunited US.
Glaivester's avatar
From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom So you deny DREAMers apply for generally available scholarships?
Glaivester's avatar
From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom Or have they inspired any scholarships that non-DREAMers are eligible for?

From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom Are you denying that there was fear at Live Oak that displaying an American flag would enrage Latino students?
Glaivester's avatar
From @Glaivester
.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom I'm not arguing legal decision, I'm wondering why American students would be offended by American flag.

From @JB_Cox
@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Then read the decision.

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom I speak Spanish. That mean I'm guilty of creating linguistic balkinatization?

@ThenTheJudgment I'm sorry, but I can't understand things for you. Suffice it to say things aren't as you assume @Glaivester @24AheadDotCom

@Glaivester @24AheadDotCom Some do. But they're ineligible for a ton (probably most).

.@JB_Cox @24AheadDotCom Nothing wrong with learning a foreign language - but it shouldn't be required in order to get along in U.S.
