El Presidente Jorge Bush is preparing her pardon as we speak.

Won't be necessary. If she's like most of the illegal felons around here, as soon as it looks like they won't get away with it and they're out of options they head south of the border and come back with a different fake ID and alias. About a third of the traffic accidents listed on the morning commute are 'hit and run'. Hmmm if I pulled a 'hit and run' they could track me down by my license plates. But if I'm here illegally and the car hasn't been legally registered or insured by last few 'owners' why hang around after for all the unpleasantness after a traffic accident?

If she gets out on bail your prediction will definitely come true. If she doesn’t get bail an army of left wing lawyers will circle the wagons around her. Either way its going to suck for the victims.

I know what you mean. I’m for trade, but I want it reasoned and on a one on one basis. The big trade agreements are overly broad and ultimately destructive IMO.

An employer can verify ss#’s for any employee for free on the IRS website. if the name doesn’t match the ss#, it’s a real good indication that someone isn’t legal.

Generally, I don’t like this shifting of the blame to employers.

You may have misunderstood what I meant. The employer should be charged with felony murder, not for actually commiting the murder. That charge should be brought aginst the illegal.

Felony murder charges are brought against all of those involved in a crime, such as a robbery gone wrong, that involves the murder of an innocent person, even though only one person actually committed the murder.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ok,,,An employer finds a fake SS#. How quick do you think the police will be there to pick that person up? Huh?

If the government were doing its job, then employers wouldn’t have to be unpaid policemen! If an employer finds a fake SS# then the very least that the government could do would be to come and pick that illegal up within 5 minutes!

The police don’t do that, because they don’t want to! Instead, the illegal will go from employer to employer.

“I doubt if the little fat one has ever been out of Puerto Rico.”

ID theft of Puerto Rican U.S. Citizens by illegal aliens is a chronic proble. People here are not selling their identities, as you suggest. Their identities are being stolen, particularly from public schools, and their paperwork is sold elsewhere.

It takes only a minute to verify if the ss# really belongs to the person claiming it, before the person is hired. It the name doesn’t match then they don’t get hired. Don’t need the cops not to hire someone. If they can’t find a job they go home.

They would go home too, if they thought they would be immediately picked up by the police.

If the governemnt was doing their job, the employer would have a lot less worry, and a LOT less wasted time.

Also, these immigrants are aggressive. If they weren’t they wouln’t risk a dangerous border crossing across a desert wilderness. As an employer, would you want these people continually coming into your human resource office? As an employer I don’t!

If the police picked them up. Charged them with fraud. Put them in jail for a few months, and then deported them, you would have far fewer crossing the border.

Also, let’s not forget the traffic stops, hospitals, the welfare office applications, and schools. If the cops picked these people up, jailed them for attempted fraud and stealing of government services, and deported them, employers would have far, far fewer of them trying to get work.

Believe me, when the word gets out that you don't hire illegals, very few will come to your place of employment to apply. They know where they are wanted and where they are not.

If the police picked them up. Charged them with fraud. Put them in jail for a few months, and then deported them, you would have far fewer crossing the border.

They will be back across the border in no time flat after deportation because there are employers that will hire them.

It would cost must less to solve the problem if the jobs they do dry up.
