While it may not be accurate, it does raise questions about what infections diseases and medical conditions may have come across the border with that influx of illegal immigrant children. Why does the double standard exist that children born in the US must be vaccinated before attending public schools yet illegal immigrant children do not?

Let's not try to find a racist issue to further divide the country and distract from the real problem.

sorry but there clearly is an anti illegal immigrants stigma in this country. stigmas give people a way to needlessly blame something on some demographic when it is unwarranted. i think this clearly fits the bill.
