Mexican [Illegal] Immigrants Swarm for New [fradulent] IDs

Since Sept. 11, demand for the matricula has spiked, with immigrants standing in line for hours each day. The Chicago consulate said it has been issuing 300 cards daily.

"There are certain needs we have that can be met with a matricula," said Jesus Romero, an illegal alien who recently stood on line with dozens of other immigrants to get the card that essentially guarantees better access to U.S. public and private institutions.

Excellent post.

. Death to Mexico that's my motto.

With an open border and Mexicans claiming their "right" to AMerica, this is inevitable indeed.

So why do I (born American citizen) have to provide 2 proofs of ID when I apply for a job or open a bank account. Why do I have to show a separate ID when I purchase items with my ATM card or credit card.

Could it be that the country I was born in considers me less than these illegal aliens?

Run, run for your lives, 95% of these people want to bus your table after you eat, pick your vegetables, and clean your toilets, to look for a better life.

The accurate story is 95% of these people want us (read: American Citizens) to pay for their health care, schooling, bilingual education and welfare handouts while they vote in our elections for more of the same. You think the chump change that Hector makes cleaning toilets covers these welfare costs for his family? Extended family? ROTFLOL. It doesn’t even come close to covering the down payment! Of course you know this. You just don’t want to talk about it for some strange reason. Why is that Dane?

but there are also way too many scammers who are here for nothing but the goodies.

Yeah, there are a lot of native scammers too. Look at all the low lives they just nabbed for the 9/11 fraud. Its not just immigrants.

[VA Advogado]

How many millions are enough for people like you? 25 million more? 62 million more? 90 million more?

Would you settle for the same amount that were allowed in during the early years of the 1900s?

[WRhine]

You bet, this government has no intention of stopping this titanic invasion of millions.

Which makes the case for a new government that will.

[Dane]

Yeah, there are a lot of native scammers too.

I have said this before and will say it again. I would rather see some immigrant with a wife and family busting his ass doing a good days work getting a small welfare subsidy, rather than some drug addled native born single welfare mom sitting on her ass 18 hours a day.

Yeah, there are a lot of native scammers too. Look at all the low lives they just nabbed for the 9/11 fraud. Its not just immigrants. Yep, and as you said VA, they're being "nabbed". When do we start to nab the others? Blackbird.

>>>Zigler said that he is a Libritarian, and struggles with the conflict between his beliefs and the INS mission.<<<

Bush or O'Neill or Ashcroft, (or whomever is responsible for the INS) should help Mr. Zigler solve his conflicted beliefs - >Fire Him Before He Does Any More Damage!

[MadRobotArtist]

No, that can't be right. They'll demand that we give them all the land back we took from them during the Mexican American war. Not to mention that we'll have to take on Mexico as the 51st welfare state. Mexico isn't going anywhere. They are going to be that rotting cesspool they have always been.

[HardStarboard]

In line with my post #20, go to the thread on "INS Alert..." Four Pakistani sailors were let go in Norfolk without Visa's or passports.....turns out one was on the terrorist watch list. Guess who gave them the passes, yup!! Good 'ol INS!

[RnMomof7]

Soon we will be taking the paso at par...welcome to the NEW America

[HardStarboard]

Ummmm - my post #32. Duh. Sorry....

[RnMomof7]

The point is not if they are "good" people..the point is they are law breakers. They have entered this country or they remain here illegally..they are criminals

[RnMomof7]

They are criminals and you support criminality by your words. They have no business being here and many of us are dedicating ourselves to throwing them out of OUR country. I don't care what they want or what you want. We are going to be a nation of laws or the issue will be in the streets. You wouldn't want that alternative, believe me. If they want to come to the U.S. so badly, they can follow the law.

Be careful or he will call you a bigot (as he has me) ..that is what they call people that happen to believe in the law..

Some of us thought that we were a Nation of Laws"...not any more!

[RnMomof7]

Run, run for your lives, 95% of these people want to bus your table after you eat, and clean your toilets, to look for a better life.

Jobs that lots of poor , uneducated or minority Americans in this country would like to do..but they want to be "on the books" and paid the minimum wage

Go look at the food stamp/medicaid books then tell me about it

BTW My nephew is "busing tables" to get through law school.. he is an American..If you want cheap labor move there!

[RnMomof7]

It is interesting how we make EVERYBODY go through metal detectors at airports under the theory that anyone could be a terrorist, yet when it comes to illegal immigrants we trust the government to know exactly which illegals need to be arrested and which don't.

Excellent point ! Selective law enforcement !
