And I can personally confirm they do not qualify for scholarships. They do however, under DACA get in-state tuition. But shit, you're really pulling for hairs if that's something you're saying is bad. In-state tuition is incredibly expensive, and given the fact DACA families are probably pretty poor to begin with.. Just come on people.

The problem is that people under DACA had no choice in whether they entered legally or illegally. They were children. They grew up in America. They did not have the intentions of breaking our laws. What is so hard to understand about this.
They also grew up here, and is just as American as you or I. To deport them would be inhumane and a travesty to Justice.

What you mean make them look bad? That hasn't stopped them from doing their thing. Here in my state we had a law enforcement department throw college kids around and taze them for absolutely no other reason than the guy didn't want to talk to the police officer (he was not being arrested or being detained) and the Police Chief went out in front of the crowd to say 1. What the police did was legal. 2. The college kids were wrong and doing illegal things. 3. When asked about the police "I haven't seen the tapes so we can't go into any details". One week later they released the officer's body camera. Except they edited out the part where they beat the kids for "Officer's privacy". And you know what happened? We now have people in that town putting up billboards that say "We thank and love our hardworking police officers!". I shake my head everytime I go through that town. I don't think officers really care about what people think of them so long as they get their buds to protect them. Oh yeah, no officer was ever charged, and no reports were ever given about that state of the college kids who were arrested.

I think with enough guns, all things are possible. (not that I'm advocating for violence or blood shed). But see what happened when the government tried to take cattle from that guy. Militias came in and the government stood down. In this case if citizens tried to take cars and property of police, the police will simply tear gas, shoot etc until it stops. Violence works 1 way for police, whether legal or illegal.
