A public school field trip…to the local illegal alien day labor center
What’s next? Assemblies with fake ID manufacturers? Gym classes with coyotes?
Darleen Click points to this L.A. Daily News report on a 4th-grade public school field trip to a local illegal alien day labor site:
It wasn’t your typical field trip that Danielle Quinto took her fourth-grade class at Our Community School in North Hills on last week.
Her 25 students – all from lower- to middle-class working families – didn’t go to the Los Angeles Zoo or Travel Town.
Instead, they went to see men whom they said scared them, men they thought were dangerous and stole things.
Quinto took her class of 9-year-old children on a field trip to a city-funded, day-labor work site in North Hollywood near a Home Depot.
“It was a little weird taking the kids on a field trip like this, but it turned out to be a teacher’s dream,” the young, charter school teacher said Monday.
After the children returned to the classroom, the teacher put them right to work…as little, pro-illegal immigration lobbyists:
“It was cool talking to them, not scary,” the 9-year-old said. “We all left wanting to tell their story to other kids so we can help them.”
And that’s Part 2 of Danielle Quinto’s magical field trip.
When they got back to school, the kids began working on a news release they sent to every media outlet in Los Angeles.
It asked for help getting the message out about learning about people before judging them.
The kids also want to raise some money to help the day laborers improve their job-site center and buy the tools they need to do their jobs as masons, painters, carpenters, landscapers and a host of other manual labor jobs.
It’s California tax dollars at work twice over–funding illegal alien labor and open-borders indoctrination in the public schools.

And that just happened.
When I was in school they took us to a jail to see daily prison life. I guess this school is continuing the tradition of showing kids criminals. Too bad it’s while they’re still committing crimes.
Dey Tuk R Jerbs!
My only question is this: If an ignorant waste of a school teacher could find the illegal aliens why couldn’t ICE?
Thanks for the stats. Every person who is pro-amnesty should indicate so on their tax return, and $11,000 be added to their tax bill. Actually it would be more like $20,000 since not every US citizen is pro-amnesty. Watch how quickly things change then.
People like marries101 (post #72) are as much a part of the problem as the illegals themselves. marries101′s attitude is what enables and encourages illegals and makes enforcement of and respect for our laws more difficult.
I am married to an immigrant – a LEGAL immigrant, which makes all the difference. I speak fluent Spanish so I can both understand and empathize with the plight of illegals in this country – a plight completely of their own making, and completely rectifiable.
“Why can’t we all just get along?” is marries101′s mantra. Why can’t we all just obey the laws, and punish those who don’t?
health department does nothing to monitor sewage disposal at these sites. and the teacher exposes the kids to it?
There are two issues here. Yes he is correct in that the dictionary does define American as a native or inhabitant of North America or South America so if you are going to have this discussion you need to state US citizens instead of Americans because you are using one definition and he is another.
Then is the second part of his saying that if you are an American it is Legal for you to be in the US.
Is he a member of La Raza because this is what they believe?
Simple reply what he believes does not match with the facts and reality of what LAWS of US, Mexico and Canada are. If he keeps rambling then say I believe you now owe me $100. When he asks you why, say if he can make ridiculous claims based only on beliefs that are against reality and the laws, then so can you and pay up.
OMG!
From the faculty bios …
Thank you for commenting Pressto. I honestly don’t know if he is a member of La Raza. That was my first thought too. He also said that he would rather his taxes go to illegal aliens getting welfare and so forth other then his taxes going to the war in Iraq. That is what makes me think is his just a typical liberal. Everytime I talk on the blog now I never say that we are “Americans”, I say we are United States citizens and there is a difference between U.S. citizens and illegal aliens. But he is blind to the proof. Thank you for the come back. I needed one for this idiot. He just pisses me off.
Heh, didn’t see this posted on the school site under the 4th grade teacher in question’s section earlier today:
Do you honestly think 4th graders wrote that? If you do I have a bridge to sell you. Indoctrination, ahh yes, subterfuge from our own public charter schools.

Whoa watch out there goes the idiot throwing its weight around. This thing never has an opinion on any issue a strict side liner. Don’t let it get to you.
I agree longbow. They are as much a part of the problem as anything. They are enablers. They also believe that only they know what true compassion or love is. I’ll bet you dollars to donuts I can take fourth graders and show the “good side” of anybody. You could endear fourth graders to Adolph Hitler but of course not if you present them with ALL of the information. That is not what they did here. The fact is too that 4th graders are probably not mature enough for this debate. It is another problem I have with all of this. These feel good socialist want to use children to make their points and advance their agenda. They know that most adults won’t buy this socialization so they cowardly hide behind the children. This is also why they see home-schoolers as a threat because they can’t brainwash them if they can’t get their hands on them. Something we really need to address in this country but I digress. Public schools should not be doing ANY of this socialization crap. They will ignore any bad components of these “nice men” and suggest you are a “racist” for noticing even though it is these very behaviors that are detrimental to our society as a whole.
abstract, you’re almost always the exception to the rule around here my man.
dakine said:
This idiot must still be in high school.
Oh, let’s all hold hands and go to a local prison, dear students!
Let’s visit child molesters, rapists, murderers, etc.
They are living in such horrible conditions, you know, and we need to listen to THEIR SIDE of the story.
Then we’ll go back to class and write a letter thanking them for sharing their pain with us.
(who knows, maybe I’ll get Teacher of the Year!!!)
the liberal way………………
Hitler knew that too.
You never disappoint underarock. Once again, you’ve helped make my point.
I’m sure there are alot of people here who agree with me at times, and alot of people who dont. And i’m sure where there are going to be alot of times that i’m going to catch flak for things, regardless. But i at least try to keep it semi-intelligent and interesting
Guess it just depends on the day and the subject
Abstract and HappyMom already (politely) stomped all over marries101′s amnesty enabler argument (to your own liking oddly enough Dakine), so why are y’all still measuring internet ego’s?
Alaskangrizzly, I think Jude and his husband Darryl wrote it.
This is the left in action.
They use children for political purposes.
dakine said:
I’m quite sure you’re a moron, but it’s quite funny how you never really have a position or point on this board. yawn.
looks like a very “democratic” school.
True dat abstract. Just can’t help pushing back at internet wannabe tough guys like underseige. Guys like that give sites such as MM.com a bad rep.
BTW, I agree with your take (as well as HappyMom’s) on this subject, so not sure what the “oddly enough” comment means.
I know its tempting. I give lgm pushback alot of the times, but only because its rare he’ll support a position for more than a few seconds.
I think what some people forget at times is that, regardless of our politics, we will agree on certain subjects. Just as we could likely be at each others virtual throats on something else.
its about working through the differences and celebrating in our agreements.
ok, work is about done…i’ll check the rest of the boards and call it a day!
l8r.
I wonder if any of the kids witnessed illegals peeing on a store wall, making leering whistles and sexual comments at women passersby, or maybe buying more illegal documents from their counterfeiter, or maybe making final payments to their smuggler for their illegal entry.
and those are the so-called “good” ones
the school offers their application in English and Spanish. Lovely.
Not only that, but the one in English has a typo. The irony, the irony.
They are hard workers trying to make a buck. Leave the illegals alone.
Big time sarc\
Yes, so reasoned, so sympathetic, yet so totally incapable of understanding why people are so prone to “emotional outbursts.” What? Are you a robot? Or are you insulated within your own universe that you cannot understand how many Americans feel that the trajectory of the country has gone off the rails regarding immigration.
Yet, not quite so understanding, are you, with statements such as this:
Where’s the respect…how about you just “respectfully disagree” and move on? Practice what you preach, dakine. You like to bleat how you and marries101 will never get a “discussion.” I guess when you play on both sides of the fence, no one’s quite sure where you’re coming from.
On a side note, my husband recently went to a local Naval hospital for some testing and while he was waiting, he watched some latest Obummer coverage and shook his head. An elderly woman next to him asked if he liked Obummer and my husband said no. She then decided to lambast him and say how selfish young people (I guess my husband) were, that they don’t care about the country, and Obummer will bring our country “together.” My husband politely said, “we’ll agree to disagree.” You wanna know what this ole biddy did? She kept lighting into my husband until he was called into his appointment. He just ignored her.
We are having a discussion, dakine. Sorry if it’s “too emotional” for you.
Just received this e-mail which is so appropriate a comment for this thread. Simply substitute this ‘teacher’s’ name, Danielle Quinto for
