USA Today laments criminal aliens not getting in-state tuition

The Hispandering of the MSM continues.  Excerpt:

Some states are making it harder for illegal immigrants to attend college by denying in-state tuition benefits or banning undocumented students.

In the past two years, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia and Oklahoma have refused in-state tuition benefits to students who entered the USA illegally with their parents but grew up and went to school in the state. That represents a reversal from earlier this decade, when 10 states passed laws allowing in-state rates for such students….

…Opponents say students shouldn’t be penalized for their parents’ actions. Helping them is “the right thing to do (hey, isn’t rewarding criminal behavior ALWAYS the “right thing to do”? – Ed.) even if it’s unpopular,” says North Carolina state Rep. Pricey Harrison, a Democrat who introduced a bill that would prevent state institutions from asking about students’ immigration status.

Cry me a Rio Grande!  I had to pay out-of-state tuition when I enrolled at Florida State University (since I was a resident of TN), but I guess if my old man had been an “undocumented” migrant orange-picker instead of a U.S. Marine, I would have caught a break on my tuition.  Sucks for me, huh?

Nope…no liberal media bias!
