[quote=FlyerInHi]I think the only creepy thing about the scene at the trolley station is what some might characterize as:
“A swarm of foreign kids invading our country. Pretty soon those kids will become soldiers of the new Aztlan Empire. The fate of White women would be too horrible to contemplate, and White men will be left to wander the earth.”
That kind of narrative has been spoken before.[/quote]
brian, you’re really REACHING with the assumptions you’re making ….
This phenom has NOTHING to do with any of this fantasy of yours. OR citizenship or race. It has to do with non-resident students (actually out-of-country residents, or “foreigners,” as you stated) taking public K-12 classroom seats away from bona-fide resident students.
Yes, I HAVE been there early in the am and also in the afternoon! I picked that particular station to discuss here because of its prime location connecting to 8 bus routes which take trolley riders to IB (to connect to Coronado from there) and San Diego via Chula Vista and National City, connecting along the way to Regional (CV & NC) bus routes which take same riders to at least 25 more K-12 public schools and 2 CC campuses. It’s the southernmost trolley “hub” of sorts. It’s a pretty fast and efficient system on a tight but frequent timetable. I’ve had to actually run to/from the bus to connect to the trolley several times when my car was in the shop.
A parent who just crossed the US/MX border can easily move on down the road to go to work in SD or turn westbound around the strand up to Coronado from there (for their hospitality job) after dropping their school-age kids off at this station. It’s common for 2 or more students from one family to be spread among different schools if their parent used fraudulent address(es) to enroll them. It’s also common for students to take different bus routes from their siblings/cousins (who were brought into the US with them that morning) to get to school. It only costs $36 month each for student bus/trolley passes (age 6-18).
Legitimate RESIDENT parents OF ALL races/Nationalities are livid over this situation, ESPECIALLY if they are paying high Mello Roos in a particular school attendance area which is overcrowded and/or their own kids couldn’t get into their “home” schools (or had to wait for a year or more on a waiting list to get into them).
Of course, not having any kids yourself, you wouldn’t understand the magnitude of the problem unless your own family experienced it. Hence, my suggestion to go visit this very public place which is NOT the same as “lurking on (or outside) school grounds.” I didn’t suggest you follow any kids onto the trolley … thus you won’t be stalking and its not “creepy.” But, even if you DID board a trolley some school kids got on and even subsequently boarded their bus with them to their school, as long as you don’t get off at their school with them, you won’t be accused of “stalking.”
If the 3 school districts in SD County most affected by this issue just had a handful of “residency compliance officers” on the payroll, they could very quickly learn much to help their district reduce and eventually eliminate this seemingly intractable problem … opening up hundreds (if not thousands) of slots in these schools for legitimate resident students and even inter-district transfers! But the reality is that these districts don’t really want to know.
As CAR suggested earlier, this is just one of those things that you have to see and experience for yourself.
You seem to be inventing phobias in your head here … or could they possibly be due to a recent “suggestion” made by none other than our resident troll, pri_dk?
