The Young Turks 12.15.17: Deported Workers, School Shooting, Robocop, and Faith-Based Schools

A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from December 15th, 2017. For more go to http://www.tytnetwork.com/join. Hour 1: Most of the injured immigrants reported under the law in recent years work for a few companies that provide labor and personnel services to high-risk industries such as construction and landscaping, promising cheaper workers’ compensation costs to their client businesses, the Daily News found. Some companies or their insurers legally avoid paying injury claims, while their injured undocumented workers lose their jobs, get arrested, face jail and deportation, and must pay their own medical bills. New Mexico shooter was a radicalized white supremacist. Has history of visiting alt-right websites and enquiring how to buy guns. Hour 2: One such bot cop recently took over the outside of the San Francisco SPCA, an animal advocacy and pet adoption clinic in the city’s Mission district, to deter homeless people from hanging out there. At least four faith-based private schools in Mecklenburg County receive taxpayer money through a state voucher program while sections of their handbooks prohibit lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender students from enrolling.
