Agreed, and the fact that they are aware that they are losing is exhibited time and again with them either: (a) totally changing the subject of the debate by throwing in some stupid comment that is irrelevant to the topic; or (b) childish comments in their sad attempts to reduce you to their level of O/T pettiness. There are several (I'm sure you know who they are) not even worth me finding the blast button Benicar created. Many of the "children" on this board are not worthy of my time or any form of my attention or response.

Too bad randomU is not "pro-illegal", he's actually part of your crowd. It's funny how RandomU can agree with you guys on everything yet he disagrees on this one issue then he's labelled open borders and "pro-illegal". It just shows how losely that term open borders and pro-illegal is thrown around.

Btw, don't act as if the anti-immigrant crowd don't call people names on this board.

It's even more disheartening when the offender is NOT a pro-illegal. Similar to the 'sting' of one being killed in combat by friendly fire. It's so incredibly sad.

Anonymous Political Junky clearly qualified his/her statement as a "new" member, and therefore would have no knowledge of the anti or pro status of the poster. There is no justification for resorting to vulgar invectives; and I would not condone it had it been directed to a pro-illegal. It’s unacceptable, period.

Nothing stops illegals from buying liability insurance now. They choose not to because it saves them money and they know they aren't expected to follow any laws that inconvenience them.

Does uninsured driver coverage cover illegals driving?
What they often do is pay cash for one month's coverage so they can have the insurance card which they need to have license plates and registration stickers.

Then they never pay again, the insurance lapses until the next year when they repeat the process.

In order to send $400 average remittances back to Mexico a month, an illegal must scrimp on other things, liability insurance obviously is one thing.

Well knight you and I disagree more oft than we agree. That said I have never read a post of yours where you resort to bashing family members of other posters. In fact I don't recall a time when you called names.
You have my respect even though we sit on opposite sides of the fence.
My mom had 6 children I suppose she was a breeder also. A breeder of US citizens of course. LOL Does this matter? I wonder when it became acceptable to attack family members. I was raised to treat that as a taboo.

The comment was wrong, period; and I stand by my objection. Furthermore, two wrongs don’t make a right. I don’t want anyone to denigrate my mother, and I treat others accordingly. I’m sorry you have lost your mom. May she rest in peace.

And how do you know I wasn't "joking" by calling your mother a breeder? Exactly you don't know do you? Benicar has a right to her opinion as a woman (and a poster) who is rightfully and obviously personally offended by another woman being called a beyatch under any circumstances.

If you have something to say to me then bring it. Stop inserting your opinion of Benicar and address me personally.

I am only one of many that you have a habit of stalking, personally insulting for attention simply because we disagree with you about the topic of illegal aliens and their destruction of America.

How you treat and respond to others dictates the amount of respect you receive or lack thereof. My response and comments merely reflect my ability to stoop to the level of response that you deserve. I have no respect for you, therefore I treat you accordingly.
