Well, I guess your quest for the perfect person has nosedived Ghost.

However, in the meantime, I am struck by the irony of your use of the word, "citizen."

I'm not, though; so I didn't do that.

Sounds like ICE is in the grocery store picking ripe fruit. The girl might not be able to adapt to life in Mexico--doesn't Mike Huckabee agree with that statement?

I agree that the law Rosa Parks broke was completely UNFAIR and should have been abolished and that the best way (probably) to get it done was to do what she did.

So are you saying that it shouldn't be against the law to present false identification or that we shouldn't require identification? That is the law illegal aliens are breaking that bothers me so much. They are indulging in identity theft, pure and simple. Every country has to have an immigration process, it has to be said that ours could be made easier but we still have to have one for heavens sake.

She is an illegal alien, if it can be proven she drew any public benefits at all she should be thrown in prison for a very long time.

Although it doesn't surprise me she was snagged at DMV. A few years ago when I lived in Iowa, I had to get an Iowa drivers license, and because my name was identical to someone from NYC who had a warrant out for him, I was held at the DMV for a couple of hours while they verified my fingerprints and identity.

She is a criminal, it's a good thing they caught her. But she should do some time in jail, I understand she was brought over as a child, so she should be given a break and not be sent to prison. But she should at least spend six months or so in a local jail.

This country has been invaded by a foreign army. There's no other way to accurately describe what's happened to the United States over the last generation. We need our military on the border, and we need to take a hard line with the ones already here. Even with the students taking slots in our community colleges.
