And today on what feels like a dystopian TV show called How Badly Can Texas Continue To Miss The Point? we’re seeing schools in the The Lone Star State sending DNA kits to parents to help identify their kids’ bodies “in case of emergency”. Yes, really…
Texas has been pretty infamous with their controversial way of working and their school system is no exception. In 2021, Texas state legislature passed Senate Bill No. 2158 requiring public schools to “provide identification kits to school districts and open-enrollment charter schools for distribution to the parent or legal custodian of certain students”. The bill passed after the horrific murders of eight children and two teachers in Santa Fe, Texas as well as the botched response to the Uvalde shooting of Robb Elementary which ultimately claimed the lives of 19 kids and two adults.

Because making a law to identify children’s dead bodies INSTEAD of making a law to protect them from dying is a perfectly sound scenario to these people… Absolutely abhorrent.
The Texas Education Agency have sent out fingerprinting pamphlets to students’ caregivers which will allow them to store their kiddo’s fingerprints at home in the event of an “emergency” — completely optional for the parent to use. The legislation mandate intended for the kits to be used to “help locate and return a missing or trafficked child”, but after the growing concern of school shootings it’s got parents even more concerned for their children’s safety.
Tracy Walder, who is a former CIA and FBI agent expressed to Today Parents on Tuesday she was “devastated” to hear her daughter would be receiving one of these kits. She said she

Local New York City officials said Tuesday on "Fox & Friends First" they're concerned about Staten Island schools seeing an "unsustainable" influx of migrant children by next week. Travis Civic Association President Gene Guerra said the school in his neighborhood is already "overflowing" and he's unsure if the principal would be able to accept more students. "There's really no place to put these children," said Guerra, telling host Carley Shimkus one school is already using a cafeteria as a classroom. The move comes as Texas continues to send migrants from the southern border to sanctuary cities such as New York City. Migrants leave for a shelter from the Port Authority bus terminal in New York, the United States, on Sept.
A Texas border mayor called out both parties Monday on "America's Newsroom," arguing Republicans and Democrats are the "root cause" of the border crisis. "It is a crisis relative to immigration and border security. And unfortunately, we have a tendency to look beyond our borders for the elusive root causes when in reality and unfortunately, the fact remains that politicians on both sides of the aisle are the root cause," said Rio Grande City, Texas Mayor Joel Villarreal. Villarreal said no mayor or governor should "bear the burden" for what he described as a "broken immigration system." Villarreal said he is not confident the influx of illegal immigration will end because "neither party has delivered immigration reform in several decades." Vice President Kamala Harris visited Austin this weekend, but declined to make a stop at the southern border.
