The inquirer may just be a law-abiding American citizen concerned about a citizen’s representation in government. The question is: Did the 2020 census include undocumented Hispanics living in Clark County?

Frankly, if I had kids at Columbia who participated in these “protests,” I’d yank them out of school, toss their stuff onto the lawn and tell them to get a job, go live in the real world and pay your own way.
