Here in New Mexico the state issues DL's to illegals, they can then vote. Our new Governor, a republican, is trying to stop the practice but is stopped by the liberal democrats who control the house.
We have a saying here;
"Welcome to New Mexico, land of enchantment, where corruption is a way of life."

Where I vote ID plus voter registration card is required. They cross my name off (now done electronically) the list before I get to the booth. The reason they here is because small business owners (landscapers, construction companies,.....) hire them. They need drivers license to move around to get to work and keep small business people in business. Do you expect them to hitch hike to work every day when their job site varies from day to day?

What I expect is for them to obey the law. I also expect the people who hire them to obey the law. That means these small business owners should be proscecuted for hiring non-citizens because they are creating much of the demand which attracts illegals. We have plenty of unemployed, and plenty of welfare recipients who are not counted as unemployed who could fulfill the employment needs of these businesses. That also means that the illegals should be rounded up and deported.

We have a process and laws governing immigration and eventual citizenship. Unfortunately, our government chooses to barely enforce those laws. My Grandparents and Great-Grandparents followed that process. They did not break the law to get here. They did not get Green Cards and go years without paying taxes. They did not illegally use a stolen Social Security Number. They came here and immediately found work and began paying into the system. They never got Welfare, Food Stamps, or free medical care. They applied for citizenship and learned the English language and assimilated. They most certainly did not vote until they were sworn in as citizens.

Now one final question... in another thread, you suggested I was insulting and embarassing you and other European members here when I spoke of our high gas prices which are still much lower than in Europe. Now it sounds as if you live here in the Southwest U.S.A., buy your gas here, and vote here. W KNIEI indeed!

Illegals should be deported.....period. Not rewarded with ID's and licenses...

We will not see any semblence of a program to deal with illegals over the next 4 years. The commiecrats want every one possible to be allowed to stay in the Country. It's votes and more on the welfare roles to support them.
The Republicans don't have a clue as to how to deal with the situation without being portrayed as racists in the "mainstream news media".
I don't know what it will take to reverse this situation but if it isn't reversed the United States as we have know it will disappear.The Southwest where I live is becomming overun with illegals.

When my brother went to vote in Prince William county VA..where there are a LOT of Latinos...and illegals....nobody even asked for a voter registration card much less ANY ID, none...zip, zilch, nada, niente. Just verbally giving your name was enough...

It's the same here in NM. My wife and I followed the rules, got our voter ID's. Each time we vote we offer to show them. Each time the response is " No need to, just sign your name. "
Sad........

In Italy they will send you away from the polling station if you don't show up with a legal government issued ID.

No ID....no vote.

How do I know that...Ask JRB. Wife was born and raised in Italy, SHe is now a dual citizen and I have an equivalent of a permanent green card in Italy....and am eligible myself for citizenship there by marriage ( I'm grandfathered into the old immigration laws that have been revised since several times) ...I lived and worked there for 6 years....I have an apartment there (sort of like a rent controlled APT in NYC type thing)...three antique motorcycles there, and I've spent a month there every year for the last 20 years...I even have my own tax ID number there (similar to an SSI # here).

I even have a circle of friends there I've been friends with since 1988 I'm NOT related to by marriage.

I know every part of that city even better than I know Washington DC where I've worked for 18 years.

Boneheaddoctor isn't kidding. Now if I could only talk him into visiting some of the gun makers in Italy and share some pics of the guns and gunmakers places with us.

That would be great- wonder if he knows those three hot Fausti chicks and their custom shotguns that are in almost ever issue of some other shooting magazine that DGJ- Mama Mia-- I would love to own an Italian made fine 12 bore- but sans rocco engraving-- just English rose and scroll for me- But as to BA and double express rifles, where is Italy in that mileu??
