    Based on the statement from the teacher and the student. I see nothing political about his statement. It was a clarifying question and the legal term is illegal alien.

      the legal term is illegal alien

      Sure, but not “illegal alien who needs a green card,” which is needlessly inflammatory.

      If a kid raises a hand in class and asks if a historical figure is 7-11 brown or 9/11 brown, it’s certainly a clarifying question asking if the person in question is Indian or middle eastern, but it’s also incredibly uncalled for and they should be punished.

        In context of the question. I don’t see an issue. Illegal aliens lack green cards. The kid was asking a clarifying statement.
