Not all illegal aliens are from Mexico.

And some would rather their activities remain under the radar, thankyouverymuch.

"There is always fear when you aren't a U.S. citizen," he said. "There is always fear they will get you."

Get you? And then what? That's what many Gringos want to know.

Illegal Immigrants Afraid to Get Storm Aid

They shouldn't have to fear getting government aid, because the idea that an illegal alien might receive any aid whatsoever from the government for any reason whatsoever should never even inhabit their wildest dreams. Government aid is a privilege of citizenship, not a human right that you deserve just for breathing (unlike, say, the right to property.)

"We ask that you work without fear with the U.S. authorities and cooperate with them," he said. "Don't be afraid to follow rescue officials' directions. They are capable people."

What? No plea for them to be homeward bound at first opportunity?

I've been waiting for this story to happen. Another question is if a person is here illegally, how can we know that they were in NO?

At last count I heard there are 11 to 13 million illegals in the US. Should they all get disaster aid? I'm sure the lefties would say yes.

"There is always fear when you aren't a U.S. citizen (ILLEGAL)," he said. "There is always fear they will get you (send you home)."

No doubt FEMA will issue them a $2,000 debit card.

Scary to know people can slip in and out of the shelters nightly.


I've never heard of a scared illegal, they seem pretty dang bold to me demanding drivers licence, medical care, schooling, welfare, voting rights and home loans.

Mexican President Vicente Fox appealed to one of the largest illegal populations in the devastated region with messages in English and Spanish, urging them to seek help from Mexican consulates or U.S. rescue workers.

How is Fox getting this message out? Is ICE aiding him? Is the Bush administration aiding Fox and his displaced?

Contrast this to the other foreign nationals who are demanding to go home.

pings - illegal aliens are afraid to get Katrina storm aid.

Tens of thousands of illegal immigrants live in the hardest-hit areas, although nobody knows exactly how many. Jeffrey Passel of the Pew Hispanic Center gave a conservative estimate of 20,000 to 35,000 in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.

. . . but also steering clear of the government officials who have flocked to the area, for fear of deportation.

I'm sure they're afraid of monsters under the bed, too.

[Little Ray]

Good.

The press has turned many of us away - the constant agenda driven false reports on every major issue we face, from
9/11 to Iraq to Illegal immigration and now this storm..No news organization has shown itself as worthy of Our time or trust with Fox the best of the bunch but far from perfect..I wonder how many FR's are as turned off by our News industry as I am..Katrina seems to have hit a new low in reporting and I just have stopped watching coverage or reading reports..the MSM is just so much agenda driven slime that it is too disgusting to pay any attention to.

[Fawn]

Good---they are 'supposed' to be afraid!! They're ILLEGALS!!!

[hershey]

Those here illegally could go home. Then they wouldn't have to 'live in fear'.

[swampfox98]

I would hope there would be a fear of not being a US citizen, while trying to steal from the US tax payer. What in the blue blazes do we owe these people? Go home and tell your corrupt governments to take care of you. Americans are sick to death of half the world free loading off us.
