"The illegals I met last night."
Self | 1/1/2012 | Bern Pearson

Posted on 01/01/2012 8:10:22 AM PST by Gen.Blather

I met some illegal Mexicans last night at a party. Several years ago I stayed with a couple of wonderful Mexican families in the Baja below California. These were well-off people. The homes, on average were beautifully tiled and some of them had mahogany inlaid walls, bookshelves and cabinetry that would cost a hundred-thousand dollars here. So, I’m guessing if they aren’t rich they’re very comfortable. The elderly not as well-off grandfather, while living in Mexico was receiving Social Security from the United States and owned a rent-free apartment in California which he used as his address to receive several forms of assistance checks from Californian agencies. He visited the apartment once a week to re-arrange things and make it looked lived in. He had a car, a Toyota Corolla that looked quite nice and had working air-conditioning. I gathered it was supplied as some form of assistance and he generally left it in California at the apartment. The apartment was about 1100 square feet and very livable. The grandfather told me most of entire complex, easily a 1000 units, were like him, on Californian assistance, but actually living in Mexico.

At the party were a couple of teenage boys from this family. Very nice kids. I’d be proud to have them as my own; diligent, hard working, trouble-free and much more adult than you’d expect from that age. They told me that they’d decided to go to high school in California instead of Mexico. They said that the (California) government gave them an apartment and they travel back to Mexico on the weekends. (I don’t know if they’re staying alone or if a family member is staying with them, but if I had to guess, they came alone.)

When I posted information on this family last time, Freepers angrily asked why I hadn’t reported them. Firstly, I was a well-treated guest. Secondly, this must be obvious to the casual observer. Even if I knew who to report it to in California, which I don’t, it is obvious that this is how it’s done. These people are only taking advantage of “benefits” put there for them. Not to avail themselves of these benefits would be like deciding not to take candy freely offered to you.

I missed that. Could it be that his dog has a brother’s cousin’s mother too in order to justify the rip off of the US taxpayer?

“Hmmm. I seem to have said that incorrectly. Let’s try “my wife’s sister-in-law.” In other words the woman who married my wife’s brother, has a father who’s a bum.”

That’s not all you said incorrectly. You excused his ripoff of the US taxpayer as merely taking “candy” that was offered! You suck!

You were not “of service”, you were just polishing your multi-cultural bonifides! You still suck!

waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayer money is illegal

Wish all of the statement was true. Fraud is illegal, the government wastes and abuses while the people never or seldom know. Federal and State government are pandering to illegals with the laws written and money appropriated. Some congress-critters have pointed out the problem though those who spoke up have been quietly and quickly silenced. There is something else afoot, and those who quietly and quickly silence anyone speaking up and quieted with the words, National Security. The people in D.C. government are scared, as are those in the states, or National Security means something entirely different, to government, than what it means to the Joe on the street.

revise and extend ...

The people in D.C. government are scared, as are the majority of the governments those in the states, or National Security means something entirely different, to some of those government governments in some states, than what it means to the Joe and Joan on the street.

I will concede that someday, in the not too distant future, we will have some form of national ID, but it will probably be waived for illegals.

That's exactly how it would be implemented, I have no doubt.

While you were playing nice, they were outside stealing your stereo out of your car. Think of this situation like that. They were nice inside so don’t say anything about the billions they and others are stealing. You know they are since you are posting here. How about a national bounty system for someone who could gather the correct info and proof on these “nice” thieves. Give the bounty hunters a certain percent of what would be saved if the false benefits were not paid. It would open a whole new industry. Isn’t this what private detectives do now? This could also be used for anyone gaming the system. We all know people who are some fictitious disability or being paid cash and not filing fed tax.

SO really NICE criminals are okay and given a pass at breaking the law?

Nice thread.
It would be a shame if something were to... happen to it.

Father’s brother’s cousin’s sister’s uncle’s friend’s fifth former college room mate.

Seems legit.

I got to see Dane in action a couple times.

I'm glad that moron was banned.
He was a putrid festering monotreme anus under the jungle heat and stench.
Anyone supporting illegals should be looked at with severe disapproval, public shame and reproach.
Don't want to come here legally?
Can't obey the law?
Then why bother being here at all?
And those who support the willful flouting of the law should be treated twice as harshly, deterrence works.
