WaPo: Virginia causing 'hardship' for illegal aliens


iconFor your daily dose of liberal drivel, you needn't look any further than the Washington Post. Post writers are trying to tell heart-wrenching stories of those affected by Virginia's crack down on illegal driver's licenses. Seven of the September 11th hijackers used Virginia driver's licenses to move around freely in the United States. They used a "loophole" in the law that allowed persons to have their friends vouch for their citizenship status. All you had to do was show up at the DMV with a few of your terrorist buddies to vouch that you were who you said you were, and they printed you out a state issued driver's license or ID card. After September 11th, Virginia plugged that loophole causing so-called "hardship" for "undocumented immigrants".

Caught in the middle in Virginia are thousands of undocumented immigrants who have been working in the United States for years, often paying taxes, and who now stand to lose those jobs because they can't drive to work.
Boo-fucking-hoo. Pardon me for coming off as sounding insensitive, but these are not immigrants. They are illegal aliens and they are already breaking federal immigration laws. Since they "often" pay taxes (unlike the rest of us who always pay taxes) many of them are breaking federal, state, and local tax laws as well.

So why the sudden concern that people who willingly violate our immigration and tax laws are now being forced to also violate our state driving laws? Well, when the police pull you over it's difficult for them to tell if you are an illegal alien or have been cheating on your taxes. But if you don't have a driver's license, that tends to stand out. That tends to get people arrested and deported.

WaPo cries that the "immigrants" are "paralyzed".

"There are many of us with this problem," said one 37-year-old Bolivian immigrant who spoke on condition of anonymity because she was in the United States illegally. "Without an ID, you can't do anything -- you can't find work, you can't open a bank account."

With an estimated 6 million to 8 million undocumented people in the United States, the problem is growing, said Tanya Broder, a staff attorney with the National Immigration Law Center.

The easy solution is for these "undocumented immigrants" to simply go speak with the people in charge of providing documentation. All they need to do is walk up to any Immigration and Naturalization office and ask to speak with an INS official. Once they explain that they are in the United States without the proper documentation, I'm sure the INS will gladly alleviate the "hardship".

Once these law-breakers are back on the other side of the fence, that should also free up an estimated 6 million to 8 million jobs for American citizens and legally documented immigrants.
