Sort of what I was thinking, which is why I asked.

I also wonder how people think they can look at people, or cars for that matter, and know who's illegal.

Hey, great catch, man! Too bad it doesn't contribute anything to this thread.

During that period, the Division of Motor Vehicles issued 220,983 licenses valid for five years to applicants presenting the ITIN as identification, the majority of them undocumented immigrants of Hispanic origin.

220,983, also consider the ones that aren't licensed and driving around.

The ones who aren't licensed and driving around aren't stealing your parking spaces, dude.

So out of a population of 9.9 million, that's about 2% of NC residents. And you're whining about what?

Its not just about parking spaces. But carry on and ignore the fact that we are being overrun by illegals who degrade our quality of life. Dude.

You're the one who brought up the parking spaces in the first place. If that's your biggest problem, it doesn't sound like much "Degradation" to me.

Substitute jobs and room in schools for 'parking spaces' then you'll get the idea.

I still don't think 2% of total population represents a significant drain on resources, especially compared to the number of US citizens and documented immigrants who are moving to this area.

You do know that there are certain people in this world who through their occupations have developed certain skill sets that give them the ability to do this? And be right a majority of the time.

Tell your boss that you will take a 2% pay cut, then maybe you will get it.

It's not. My mother, who worked with refugees for decades told me long ago that people often assume non-white people are illegals. That's beyond the paleface to me.

Illegals work hard to stay under the radar. They get no "welfare", since obviously they don't qualify for it.
