“He’s alone and he’s not able to return home,” said PTA president Jasmin King.

This sounds like a lie. He was detained by ICE along with his father, was he not? The PTA is all in on protect illegal aliens and championing every left-wing cause imaginable. They are the biggest source of the rot and collapse in public education.

"Teachers at Torrance Elementary reached out to King and the rest of the PTA, asking them for help in somehow getting the young boy and his father released and back to Southern California."

He's not coming back, folks. He was in the country illegally, and so was his son. There is no excuse for any entity in the United States to harbor illegal aliens, to aid and abet their unlawful presence.

That includes the kids.

“We have not received any information on why they were detained,” King said. “All we know is that Martir is just a fourth-grader who’s by himself, without his dad, without a parent, and just in a place that he probably doesn’t know, so we can only imagine what he might be feeling.”

"King said the boy has been a student at Torrance Elementary since the first grade."

Why is the local press playing this up? It's a sob story to induce compassion for open borders, to stir people up against the enforcement of our immigration laws. Enough already. During the previous administration, the federal government allowed just about anyone to come into this country illegally. The migrancy effect overwhelmed local cities, states, and their institutions. The American people have had more than enough of mass illegal immigration. All the plays and ploys on our compassion will no longer work.
