Should undocumented immigrant teens [illegals being portrayed as victims] be granted legal residency if they've graduated from a U.S. high school and they're college bound? Some local lawmakers [like MEChA-boy Grijalva] are saying, "Yes." -- Arizona lawmakers are drumming up support for the "Student Adjustment Act" and the "Dream Act."
