Default Re: Illegal with a record involved in fatal car accident

I'm not sure of the signifigance of an illegal alien being involved in a DUI fatal accident. Are you implying that real Americans never are involved in fatal DUI accidents?
Are you surprised that one out of millions of illegal aliens got into a car accident?
Or is this just some pathetic attempt at us-them racism?

I'm guessing he is suggesting that illegals are treated extremely well considering their status. They should be thrown in jail for illegal immigration for a long time, IMO.

Typical "goober response" - attack the poster, evade the issue.

He is "implying" that illegal immigrants get special treatment..to which, I cannot imagine anyone could disagree with.

Perhaps you can elaborate on your racism comment and explain how one is racist when they comment on an illegal immigrant who shouldn't even be in the United States, yet manages to avoid any serious consequences even after being a habitual offender. Over a 9 year period, the man was charged with 5 DUIs, 4 charges of evading or resisting arrest, 10 charges of driving on a suspended or revoked license, 2 charges of leaving the scene of an accident and 1 charge of assaulting a Metro Officer, and you have the balls to say someone is racist when they criticize him????

This is the typical leftist thinking by folks like goober...and methods...attack, evade, re-direct and by all means never be specific.

If the poster Goober called a racist were Hispanic in origin, would he, the poster, still be a racist?

The poster could more accurately call goober a racist for attacking him for questioning special treatment for illegal hispanics.
White is a race you know.

MOre than anything, this is typical leftist garbage - you DARE speak out against anything commited by a minority, no matter how right or wrong you are - you are a racist...morons.

I agree, it kinda ticks me off they call anyone who questions a minority a racist. Does the word racist even hold its original meaning anymore?

I posted this and was hoping some would see how he had been arrested a ridiculous amount of times prior to this, along with being an illegal alien - how screwed up the system is in this country. A very "oh, let's pass it off along" attitude. It's this kind of thing that worsens the situation.

I am part Hispanic, actually. But you're right, I didn't even think of that as being a focal point in this matter. The point is that the guy has been passed off numerous times before. I guess he didn't want to concern himself with the context of the news, just the cosmetics of the people involved. Fine by me
