Sweet day! Two less illegals in the country

Deported basically for skipping school and disrespecting an American magistrate. I love this.

Skipping School Gets 2 Sisters Deported

WINONA - Skipping school is usually met with fines and the threat of jail time; but, for two sisters, the punishment was much worse - they were deported.

Smith County Justice of the Peace Mitch Shamburger said he presided over truancy court last month when Brisa and Lluva Amante, both 17, snickered in his courtroom.

The John Tyler High School students were before him for skipping school and Shamburger said he fined them each for the action and told them to go to school every day and not to come back to his courtroom.

"I thought they would take it seriously and I wouldn't see them again," he said Friday.

However, the twins and a younger sister were brought before him on Feb. 14 for another charge of truancy.

"I asked them if they didn't understand and they just kind of snickered," he said.

Shamburger said he instructed the bailiff to handcuff the two sisters and hoped that would sober up their mood.

"It cut down on the giggling, but they stood against the wall and still kind of laughed," he said.

Shamburger said he called the two teens in front of his bench and told them they were both adults in the eyes of the law and he was sending them to the Smith County Jail to do time for skipping school.

"I told the deputy constable that if the twins had a come to Jesus meeting then he could turn around, but they didn't so he proceeded to the jail to book them in," he said.

What happened next took Shamburger by surprise.

"The officer called me and said I wouldn't have to worry about them skipping school anymore because ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) placed a hold on them and was deporting them back to El Salvador," he said.

Shamburger said he hoped the girls would learn a lesson from visiting the jail, but was not prepared for the news.

"In all of my years on the bench I have never had someone deported for truancy," he said.


So many things here.
First we had these two girls in our country illegally, probably with their mother and/or other relatives. In fact the story mentions another relative who also wound up in court for truancy. This brings me to point two--it's bad enough that these illegal aliens were in our country sucking up space in our schools at our expense, but they weren't even treating it like the privilege and opportunity that it was. They skipped enough classes to wind up in truancy court repeatedly. Clearly they weren't at all interested in making anything of themselves.
So they wind up in court, and rather than being fearful of any consequences--including deportation--they smirked and snickered and acted like a couple of punks, basically disrespecting our magistrate and our court and demonstrating the same sort of contempt for our legal system that every other illegal alien shows our laws, our border and our national sovereignty.

Well with any luck, they'll be back in El Salvador quicker than you can say "anchor baby" and the government won't cave to protestations from the illegal alien community and release them with an apology and compensation as if they're actually entitled to either one.

Two down, 19,999,998 to go!

    and they SHOULD be deported I say. I'm glad they caught them. If they want to come here they need to come here legally. I'd like to see how much they're laughing now. Awsome profile picture btw, nice gun! :) http://skipperdavies.blogspot.com/

  2. Well, I hope this is a lesson learned for other illegal delinquents we got in our school systems. Either go back home to your legal country or if you are going to stick around in our country then make something worthwhile of your life - that includes going to school and getting good grades!

  4. The problem here is, how long will it be before they come back illegally. They did it once, that we know of anyway, and there's unfortunately nothing to stop them from doing it again.

  5. Very true, "Officer Smith." Very true.
    It is like a doper. Arrest them, throw them in jail, and a few days later they are back on the street doing the same thing again. No matter how many times you arrest them, they will keep coming back to the streets for more.
    Same with illegals. They will keep coming back no matter how many times we throw them back to Mexico.
