STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. \u2013 DeKalb County School District Superintendent Stephen Green believes diversity makes America stronger, and by that measure the school district is a powerhouse.<\/p>\n

Green issued a statement recently to highlight diversity in the district and urge compassion for its immigrant and refugee students, which come from dozens of different countries and speak dozens of different languages, The Champion Newspaper reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are hearing a lot of conversation right now, some of it extreme, about how residents from originally outside our country should be treated,\u201d Green wrote. \u201cWe have 102,000 students here. They come from more than 180 countries, and they speak 140 languages. We value them; we love them and we respect what their presence here says about the goodness and generosity of America \u2013 our diversity is our strength.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Seriously? How many terps does the DeKalb County School System employ? Do the kids get interpreters during recess on the playground? Do the morning announcements finish up around 1130?<\/p>\n

The statement, issued Jan. 30, comes after two teachers were removed from their posts at Cross Keys High School for allegedly making disparaging remarks against illegal immigrant students.<\/p>\n

Both teachers were removed from their classrooms on Nov. 10 as district officials launched investigations into claims they allegedly made about illegal immigrants in the wake of Donald Trump\u2019s historic election win on Nov. 8, the Atlanta Journal Constitution.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Meanwhile, Payal Modi <\/a>\u00a0sits at home on paid administrative leave\u00a0after\u00a0bringing a water “pistol” to school and\u00a0staging a mock assassination of President Trump. I seem to recall a child with ADHD was suspended for making a\u00a0“meanie gun”\u00a0out of a pop tart<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Superintendent Green, meanwhile, is urging school officials to show love to local illegal immigrants to help them assimilate into the school district.<\/p>\n

\u201cImagine how hard it is to come to a new country and start life over without familiar ties to family, culture or language,\u201d he said. \u201cDeKalb schools give an anchor to our new citizens. Our role as school leaders is to help learning in our schools to become love \u2013 love for a new place, a new way of life and, ultimately, for one another.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How about showing some love for American citizens by\u00a0getting in line and applying for citizenship?\u00a0Help illegal aliens assimilate? Does Stephen Green\u00a0realize what he is asking? Harboring illegal aliens? Teaching our children that laws are irrelevant? Irrational diversity\u00a0has made us hypocrites and weak.<\/p>\n

We charge parents with assault\u00a0for spanking their children\u00a0while we applaud the\u00a0parents of illegals\u00a0who catapult their children over our fences. Children’s Services will remove an American child from the home if they don’t have a bedroom, but allow\u00a0six illegal families with ten children cram into a two bedroom apartment.\u00a0We provide “free” lunch to starving children in the public school system yet don’t\u00a0prosecute the parents\u00a0for child abuse for not feeding their children, despite receiving hundreds of dollars in monthly food stamp benefits. Something has to give, the system is broken.<\/p>\n

Didn’t someone say that elections have consequences?<\/p>\n
