Monroy’s life, however, was not complete because his two older children were still in Mexico. He enjoyed how safe Kansas City was and wanted all his children living somewhere peaceful and secure. He hired a smuggler for $3,000

They claim to be so poor but can afford $3000 to hire a smuggler to bring his other 2 kids here! Someone's lying through their teeth.

We're already paying the highest insurance rates in the land, due to illegal drivers that get in accidents with no license and no insurance. Not to mention the higher crime rate we've developed over the years from illegal immigration.

Here in Baltimore the illegals completely ignore all traffic signs. They go 10mph or 50mph (whatever they feel like) or they blow through stop signs and I can't tell you how many times I've seen them driving the wrong way down one-way streets. It's disgusting.

I find all this hysteria rather amusing. California has been dealing with these kinds of costs x10 for thirty years. Of course, when it was only California's problem, everyone thought it was pretty funny.

Keep your chin up...it's only going to get worse and once Congress makes them legal, the families will be piling across the border ala Beverly Hillbillies. Think you got "assistance" problems now? Wait until your hospitals start closing down.

BTW - California is full. They'll be heading for your front doors.

The "avenue" you seek already exist, the illegals are just line jumpers.

I know that there are legal avenues. Sigh. I guess I was recalling the caps put on numbers allowed in, in the last decade or so even before 9-11, and then think of the kooks that do come in, such as the leftie hate spewing prof at Yale. Seems unfair.

I have friends and relatives who came to the U.S. legally, they REALLY resent the illegal invaders.

I'm not surprised, actually. Are they conservatives? I have a few immigrant friends, legal ones. With them, it's a dividing issue. But now that I think about it, the really leftie ones are on the pro-illegal side and the more conservative sound like your friends, really irritated by it.

Nothing is free. Everything that these illegals get for "free" is paid for by somebody else. They are parasites.

Together they bring home $30,000 a year.

All tax free no doubt . . . or with such minimal taxes the taxpayer provided bennies more than compensate.

I'll bet there are more than a few citizens and legal immigrants in the Kansas City area getting by on $30K per year plus paying this freeloading illegal's tab to boot.

The last time I checked Kansas City was spending about $11,700/year for each student in the public school system.

Just another sob story. The MSM wants us to feel sorry for them so they can stay here. No one helped me pay for my second child when we didn't have enough insurance to cover him. We paid out of pocket. When we didn't have insurance when my oldest was an infant, we paid for his shots and doctors visits. We have never been on welfare or medical cards. This makes me angry. We scraped by and made it. The fact that I am now paying for these parasites as well....well it makes me a little irritated to say the least. GO HOME. YOU ARE ILLEGAL.

"Medicaid assistance for the baby’s delivery and for her doctor visits."

Wow. When my 2nd child was born in 1983, we had no health insurance, and had to pay cash before they would let me take my baby home. LOL

If you think this is bad, wait until Bush finishes destroying our nation and our sovereignty with the "North American Union" is he sneakily pushing thru to merge the USA with Canada and Mexico. According to Bush and his globalist agenda, anyone can cross over from Mexico to work here and live here too. Guess where all the Mexicans are going to go. Plus, Bush is pushing thru that NAFTA superhighway where all the trucks will originate in Mexico (so Bush and his corporate pals can get rid of American truckdriving jobs and cargo jobs to give it to below minimum wage Mexicans instead). All those Mexican truckdrivers may come up from Mexico but you can bet a good number of them will not head back to Mexico but will instead bring their families in those trucks and just stay here. You ain't seen nothing yet with the globalist Bush working like crazy to eliminate our borders and our sovereignty.

In Kansas City, he moved in with his sister, spent $200 for fake documents and began stocking supermarket shelves.

And also applying for all the programs and entitlements he can get with his new "legal entity".

If we know where these parasites (the "Monroys") live, then scoop them up and get them out of here. We have enough Democrats sucking us dry without getting more from other countries.

"US Taxpayers are subsidizing invaders' daily food intake, housing, reduced mortgages, free medical care, free education, reduced in-state and out-of-state tuition!
They also foot the legal bills when we start suing if they don't provide these goodies pronto!!!"

I suspect there's a guy like this all over the Spanish-language channels.
