BS, they CHOOSE to be illegals. With that sort of money they could hire a good lawyer and get all the paperwork cleared in a snap. More Hysteric BS from the NY Slimes

They need to go back to their own country and invest there. What would be wrong with that? No sympathy here.

I still am of the opinion that if you are ILLEGALLY in this country, you are NOT protected by the Constitution, and you DO NOT automatically recieve the consideration afforded CITIZENS.

In cases of civil settlements, YOU HAVE NO "STANDING" to gain entitlement.....it has been erroneously ruled in the past by judges that these CRIMINALS have the same rights as citizens, but common sense tells you that as far as this country is concerned, if you are not a citizen of this country, and are NOT here on diplomatic or visa credentials, you are NOT recognized in any court of the U.S.A.

Then, to bitch about not being a citizen and having to hide, why not? You are a fugitive from justice, and deserve being arrested, and DEPORTED back to where you snuck in from.....

Good idea. Think of how many gazillion pesos they would get in exchange.

Don't they keep telling us that they are here to earn money to send "home" -- and how much money each year they are actually sending?

Well, why haven't these people sent that money "home" already? And, then they can follow along right after it.

Just think, if they had not come to this country illegally, their loved ones would not have been at the WTC on Sept.11, 2001 and their families would not have suffered these losses.

the money did not change their immigration status.

Why should it?
