There have been two cases where I believe using an ID illegally was ruled

NOT A CRIME

An illegal alien was charged with using a stolen identity. His defense was that he didn’t know the social security number he was using belonged to anyone.

THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES AGREED.

If anyone is aware of this please chime in. There are definitely two different laws for US citizens and illegal aliens. Whenever the situation arises, I ask what if I am an illegal alien? So far in my conservative area, I get the right answer.

One more thing those who worry about the left catching us doing or saying something wrong or bad, take heart. It doesn’t matter what the right says, it will always be wrong or they will LIE about it. Democrats are the most sick people I have ever seen.

I remember it. GAWD Awful precedent. And yes, they are above the law...just imagine. Someone breaks several laws and gets rewarded with citizenship! What a country...

[snip]In spite of this, under federal and many state statutes, a person using someone else’s SSN or other personal information must “knowingly” do so in order to be convicted of felony identity theft. The United States Supreme Court has ruled that prosecutors must prove that an illegal alien is knowingly using another person’s SSN in order to convict the illegal alien of identity theft under the federal statute, thereby, leaving the victims of these serious and often devastating crimes unprotected.
