WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- After smearing dirt on their work shirts so they would look more like laborers, 16 men cashed thousands of dollars in counterfeit paychecks at an upstate gas station, then found state and local agents waiting to arrest them outside, authorities said Wednesday.

Three other men who may have been directing the operation also were arrested, Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro said. An extensive collection of fake checks and bogus identity cards, including Mexican voter cards, was discovered, she said.

but, but.... Our President tells us that these are fine people who only come here to work...

The rest of America knows that many of them have found every way possible to scam America and steal from us, and they also know that we have a President who won't do a damn thing to stop the invasion.

officials were suspicious of the names given by the suspects, especially one who called himself Toni Montana _ similar to Tony Montana, the foul-mouthed Cuban immigrant who builds a drug empire in Miami in the Al Pacino movie "Scarface," Pirro noted.

The same scan was ongoing recently in Atlanta using homeless men.
The homeless were arrested, the bosses got away.
No word if they were illegals.
But what the heck, give them some food stamps and turn them loose. Our immigration policy is in tatters anyway.

"We do not know definitely who they are," she said. "Some of them have three or four names."

Pirro said the men, most of them from Mexico and some suspected of being illegal immigrants...

Since we don't enforce our immigration laws, they probably figure we won't enforce other laws as well. We are inviting crime.

We are inviting crime.

The politicians have rolled out the red carpet, against the wishes of the majority of citizens.

Here in southern California we've had frequent freeway shootings, near riots in middle and high schools, you name it, we have it. Then a couple of weeks ago the pro-illegal alien thugs attacked peaceful protesters in Baldwin Park, and last night the same thing in Garden Grove. These people were only exercising their rights to protest, yet they are being violently attacked and accused of being racists.

California is becoming Mexico - the illegal aliens have imposed their culture on us with a BIG OK from the cowardly politicians.
