The Birmingham news spins EVERYTHING in a positive manner towards illegals.

They wouldn't even report a TB breakout because it was traced to illegals.

How on earth does the nationality of the driver have ~anything~ to do with the story?

Because there are LARGE numbers of illegal aliens with false drivers licences or no licence at all causing accidents, often fatal ones. (They aren't required to take a driving test when purchasing a false licence.)

Here on the California Central Coast, an illegal immigrant mecca, there are several accidents a day that are bad enough to make the evening news. Our insurance rates are higher. I have to drive super defensively--three days ago I had to pull over to the shoulder to avoid a Mexican passing in a no passing zone headed right at me. ETC.

Maybe his nationality is not mentioned, just like the nationality of the woman and her husband are not mentioned. Hey, what race were they?

And how can you say with certainty they aren't illegal aliens there are 10-20-million of the criminals who snuck into this country and can't read english, have no drivers licenses, and no insurance and run around our streets causing accidents, and if you ques that statement I know from experience because two of the illegal alien criminal bums caused a 7 car pileup of which I was hit!

She was hit by a truck driven by an alien without a DL, and without insurance.

Do you have more information than what's posted here? I haven't read who was at fault. How do you ~know~ it wasn't the woman or her husband?

Give me a frickin' break, Full Court.

We've got plenty of leeches in this country who are here legally. And they're sucking us just as dry.

You're grasping at straws now because I've pointed out what your motive is in posting this story.

And I still haven't seen a source stating he was illegal or even that he is Mexican. Just something you heard on the radio.

This is about a specific incident and they killed an American baby!

How do you know they aren't illegal?

You laid out this story to incite anger against Mexican immigrants without the article even mentioning the driver's race or legal status. Your motive is showing.

Hey sweetie, if you want take out your personal insecurities on someone, find another thread and another Freeper, 'cause I ain't the one.

It might not matter to you that our state has a huge problem on it's hands, but it matters to me.

I have to live here and drive the roads.

No one incites anger against legal Mexican immigrants.

But if YOU are on the side of law breakers and illegals, then I feel very sorry for you.

Wow! Did you stop to ask where he was from? And his legal status?

Of course not, since you probably got a 1/10th of second look at his face and nothing more.

"I know from experience..." Hmmm, all the Mexicans, Cubans and South Americans that I know are here legally.

What does your car accident have to do with this? Was this a three car-accident and you, too, were injured in the same accident where the woman ended up dying? You were a witness? If NOT, you are only assuming something you can't prove.

I don't. But I refuse to assume that they are like the rest of you do.

You are one sick puppy. Go post at DU on the "I love illegal Mexican's" threads.

Ok. Lighten up, Francis. Some of us actually work.

Her husband, 29-year-old Heath Porter, remained in critical condition at UAB Hospital Sunday night, said Bob Shepherd, hospital spokesman.

If that were me, and I learned what had happened to my wife, I think I'd probably just give and die right there. Can't even imagine what it must be like for him.

Yet another reason why the borders need to be secured.

I don't have any personal insecurities, sweetie.

You're the one that is acting defensively simply because I want you to back up your posts with facts.

I'm not on the side of lawbreakers, but I certainly am not on the side of folks who'll make ~any~ story into a tirade against Mexicans - who for all you know could be here legally and has insurance.

I've yet to see you prove they ARE law breakers and/or illegals OR that they were responsible for the accident.

As far as I can tell, all you've done is ASSume.

OK, well here's another story: A DRUNK ILLEGAL smashed into my brother head-on last week. Since he has NO INSURANCE, our rates (including my brother's who thankfully escaped with minor injuries; who gives a crap about the illegal) will all rise accordingly.

I have an almost identical story. My aunt was crossing a street (in the crosswalk) when she was run down by an illegal. Smashed both of her legs, and she had other serious injuries. The doctors didn't think she would ever walk again, if she lived. Praise God she survived and can walk. Her recovery and rehab took almost two years. Guess who had to pay the bills? She did. Of course, he didn't have insurance. I don't know what happened to the illegal, if anything. Un-freakin'-believable!
