Hey, wait a minute. I thought they were only coming here to make a better life and contribute immeasurably to our economy? At least that's what all the morons in this country keep telling us. WAKE UP, our jails and prisons are overflowing with criminal aliens. And yes, I said aliens. Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist." Now… more ›
