there's no reason to think you are BETTER than those immigrants because you're "americans" & they're not. we're all getting screwed by the same special interest groups & yall are too busy attacking the illegal immigrants than to attack the source of the problem...THE GOV'T.
I fail to understand your statement that Americans think they are better than illegal aliens. This isn't a contest between human personality traits this is about the laws of our nation.

If you think by my post that I am only blaming our government for this mess you are badly mistaken. The blame is three-fold here. The culprits are our government, the employers AND the illegals themselves. All three are guilty of violating our laws.

Then we can cross that bridge when we get to it.

Thats right...Illegal aliens are lawbreaking criminal scum who do not even deserve to be here. However our corporations and elected officials are also lawbreaking scum for their complicit allowance of these illegal idiots.

Default My life ruined by illegal immigrant and ICE negligence

[quote=Cruz Azul Guy;11857763]Who on here has had their life ruined and you directly attribute this to illegal immigration? I'd like to hear your story. I have heard references to this from posts on here and I find it hard to believe. I want to know whose life was ruined because their ID was stolen or because they lost their job to illegals and weren't able to find another job because illegals prevented them from doing so, etc. Please share your sad t

in 1999 an illegal alien was arrested several times and convicted of crimes in my name, appeared before an immigration judge as me TWICE and subsequently deported all in my name. My permanent residency expired in 2000 and as i tryed to renew my status it was denied and all they could tell me was that i had been deported in 99' and this is now 2001. For years i tried to get answers until giving up. It was until i was arrested in 20012 for unpaid traffic fines unawared that i was faced with deportation Ice detained me for 5 days as i pleaded that i had never been removed and it was a mistake, an immigration officer which i had pleaded to not to deport me I told her i was a single father since 2002 took mercy on me and dug thru the files and discovered that an illegal alien had used my identity and had appeared before an ins judge twice before being removed. They released me and since i have tried to resolve this matter but all they would tell me is " GET A LAWYER" knowing they are at fault. Since then my house was raided and i was unlawfully shackled in front of my family and hauled away again to the ICE detention center afraid i would be deported. After a day of detention uncertain of my and my children's future an officer came to my cell to inform me of his findings pertaining to my victimization by an identity thief. Struggling to support my children with no help from anyone due to my status and unable to afford an attorney my situation remains , i have suffered 16 years of depression and emotional distress i am torn.

So how do you suppose said illegal got a copy of all your id's and other information in order to impersonate you?

This thread is using marginal cases to malign a largely law-abiding group. Should we also have threads identifying the crimes committed by hispanics, blacks, whites, dogs etc.? We need to be responsible and stop using a few bad apples to judge the rest of law-abiding undocumented aliens.

"A largely law-abiding group"? Seriously? What part of "illegal" don't you understand?

There are 8 million no-match SSNs in the workforce. The MSM keeps telling us that there are 11 million illegals in this country---a figure that you agree with. So, considering that there are 8 million no-match SSNs in the workforce and there are 11 million illegals in the country---that kills your narrative of illegals being a "largely law-abiding group".

Don't they have to work to survive? Most of them are not stealing people's identities, rather they are making up SSNs.
