Most Ridiculous Item Of The Day (so far)
Sit down and relax before reading this. Now, quietly digest the following sentence: If you are an illegal immigrant from Mexico you will pay $7,143 yearly tuition to attend UCLA but if you’re a taxpaying American citizen from Kansas you will pay $25,826 yearly tuition to attend that same university (Source: USA TODAY: “2006 College Tuition & Fees Survey”). That’s the difference between tuition for in-state residents and out-of-state residents in Kalifornia.
Why are people who are illegally in this country given lower tuition at taxpayer expense? You tell me. This is not right. In fact it is so “not right” that it isn’t even wrong. It is just patently absurd and borders on criminality. Yet it is law in Kalifornia and the courts have now upheld it.
Now let’s zip across the country to Washington, DC and see what federal law says about this:
— Title 8, Chapter 14, Sec. 1623
That seems pretty clear and easy to understand, doesn’t it? Well, read the next-to-last paragraph in the story below and see what Judge Warriner had to say about the above federal law. The Kalifornia law is an insult to every American citizen and this judge’s ruling is a mockery of justice. It is also a violation of federal law.
When will this arrogant lunacy end? It will end when WE THE PEOPLE decide we have had enough and we hold our government accountable for these bullshit laws and asinine courts. The revolution is coming. Get ready ....
Judge Upholds In-State Tuition For Illegal Immigrants
SAN DIEGO (NBC NEWS) - 6:52 am PDT October 12, 2006
A judge has upheld a state law allowing public colleges and universities to charge in-state fees to undocumented immigrants. The law was challenged by a class action lawsuit filed last December on behalf of out-of-state students who claimed the tuition break discriminated against U.S. citizens.
Out-of-state students pay higher rates than California residents in the state’s three-tiered higher education system—the University of California, the California State University and California community colleges. In the past, immigrants who didn’t have legal status as California residents faced out-of-state rates.
But a 2001 law allows nonresidents to pay in-state fees if they attended a California high school for at least three years and graduated from a California high school. Immigrants who are in the state illegally who apply for the tuition break must certify they are in the process of getting documentation or will do so as soon as they are eligible.
Among other things, plaintiffs in the lawsuit argued the law violates federal immigration reform legislation passed in 1996. But Superior Court Judge Thomas Warriner ruled last week there was no indication Congress intended the Immigration and Naturalization Act or any other federal statute cited by the plaintiffs to determine resident tuition rates at state universities and community colleges.
Attorneys for the plaintiffs said they will appeal the ruling.
Just in case you couldn’t afford to go to college and never took a course in US History, let me quote you something from an obscure 18th century document that very few people nowadays have ever read .... or understand ....

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
