don't show up to cause any trouble. Security should know who they are by now.

Let me be clear: from what I've read the "troublemakers" appear to be a tiny minority group within all DACA recipients. I am in no way saying that all DACA recipients are troublemakers! I support the DREAM Act plus fyi.

Trump and gop are un-American. They could careless about Healthcare, Environment etc.. The GOP are trying to take away our way of life.

That's why voting is important.

of genocide.

I have voted in every election (local included) since I was 18 and worked at the polls sometimes. As a teacher every year I took my first grade class into the polls behind the library and they got a first hand mini civics lesson. My class was always fair (that is a big deal with kids) and democratic. We voted with secret anonymous ballots using privacy boards (to create a little voting booth on your desk) and counted tally marks/votes. We did this at least once a month for things like class leader, class party, etc. They love getting the "I VOTED" stickers in 4 languages too. I hope they all continue voting since many are old enough by now.
