You are so out of touch with reality it isn't even funny. I used to install cable TV and satellite. I would go into the low income apartment complexes and there would be a woman on welfare, shacked up with a guy (maybe husband) and they would have the top of the line 60inch LCD TV with a 5.1 surround sound, a Kenwood stereo system, flat screens in each room no smaller than 40 inch. They would be driving BMW's and Mercedes. Some houses I went to looked like they should be condemned on the outside, but go inside and same story. You know they are on welfare because the food stamp books would be on the counter. I actually got into a discussion with one guy who told me he makes more money selling his food stamps than he did working a $15/hr job! So you go ahead and believe the made up bullsh*t that the MSM feeds you. People know who to work the welfare system. That's why we have third generation recipients!

I'm not sayin take food off their table or split up families, they need to just let the ones that are already here file for citizenship so they have to pay taxes like everyone else and learn english but you need to stop the ones coming in or that does no good at all

You missed the entire point, and also what my reply was in reference to. Some idiot posted that they do not abuse the system, and that no welfare recipients live large.

But according to the bleeding hearts on here, they are just trying to provide a better life for their family! Guess I need to rethink how I am going to get that new Porche! Looks like they know how to do it! Damn, and all this time I thought hard work and being a contributing member of society was how I got that...guess I was wrong.

No those are criminals. Arrest them and punish accordingly but quit saying illegals are placed on a pedestal.
These examples are people who are running the risk like any other criminal, whether the be a citizen, resident or illegal.

If I post a handfull of stories about citizens commiting fraud (of which there are also tons) do I get a free pass to call all US citizens crooks?

Well when an illegal has the job and all his needs met while citizens are falling though the cracks and being displaced by them...when illegals get to go to the head of the line while our respectful immigrants come through the proper channels... I'd say they must be pretty special to be placed above everyone else. Laws must be obeyed by the rest of us and not by illegals? Double standards if you ask me. If I break a law I get punished and have to pay the consequences, I don't get rewarded.

So if citizens are commiting fraud, which I agree they do, does that mean we must accept more criminlas? If these people weren't here in the first place illegally, these crimes could have been avoided. So um...yes, yes you may call the criminal citizens crooks.

That's not what you are doing and you know it. You are painting with a wide brush. If you were to allow me to do the same I would be able to call all US citizens crooks.
