FREE RIDES FOR STUDENT PROTESTERS

Aided and abetted by coddling L.A. public school officials
An inside tipster at the Los Angeles Unified School District leaked me the following letter sent to parents (in both English and Spanish) regarding the illegal alien student walkouts today:

Of particular interest to L.A. taxpayers are these assurances from the school district:

The Los Angeles Times reports:
As of midafternoon, more than 22,000 students had walked out of classes in “little bits here and there,” according to Ellen Morgan, spokesperson for the Los Angeles Unified School District. A total of 60 schools were involved.
Many students waved Mexican flags as they poured out of schools and onto city streets.
“Everything has been calm and there have been no reports of injuries or incidents,” said Morgan.
The major walkouts were:
Kennedy High School in the San Fernando Valley, where 1,000 students marched toward San Fernando High School, at about 9:35 a.m.
At about 9:00 a.m., 1,000 students at Los Angeles High School at 4650 West Olympic Boulevard walked to Fairfax and Hollywood high schools, which were both locked down.
School police patrol cars stopped traffic as students walked down the streets, causing traffic jams along La Brea and Melrose avenues.
“If this law passes, what will happen? There would be no more Los Angeles High School. Nearly all of us are immigrants,” said Yadira Pech, a 16-year-old junior from Los Angeles High.
“We need to show that we have a voice,” Pech said.
Also about 9:30 a.m., 1,000 students from Belmont High School were marching toward City Hall downtown. Fifteen minutes later, LAPD officers estimated that the crowd downtown had grown to 1,500. Protesters waved flags and signs and chanted, “Latinos, stand up!”
“This is unjust. This land used to belong to us and now they’re trying to kick us out,” said Sandra Molina, 16, a junior from Downtown Magnet High School.
Like I said this morning: Welcome to reconquista.
