Ricardo Guzman was a legal resident who was unqualified for a commerical driver's license. His license wasn't fake - it was issued by the Secretary of State's office! His crimes were reckless driving and bribing a corrupt official, whose job was to keep unqualified and dangerous drivers off the highways.<BR/>Sorry Dennis, this wasn't an illegal immigration story, it was a public corruption crime.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19614248.post-11911583112828709152007-04-30T20:53:00.000-04:002007-04-30T20:53:00.000-04:00So the 'Little Village People' are making a scene ...So the 'Little Village People' are making a scene because the authorities took dangerous criminals in their midst into custody.

How "art" imitates life.<BR/><BR/>I grew up in Wilmette, my parents are members of Michigan Shores Club, and we made fake IDs. It was about 30 years ago. I might note, they were damn good fakes.<BR/><BR/>Yes, our fake ID ring got busted eventually. Surpisingly, no AR15s were carried by the Winnetka police, and their revolvers stayed in their holsters.<BR/><BR/>Our intent was to be able to buy beer, not something horrendous like getting a job and feeding our families. I guess that must have been the difference.<BR/><BR/>I think you ought to stick to cutting hair and giving stock advice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19614248.post-91088570722566256892007-04-30T15:57:00.000-04:002007-04-30T15:57:00.000-04:00Huh?What's this?A Chicago Tribune writer actually ...Huh?<BR/><BR/>What's this?<BR/><BR/>A Chicago Tribune writer actually taking the side of America & Americans?<BR/><BR/>A Chicago Tribune writer actually looking out for American citizens?<BR/><BR/>A Chicago Tribune writer actually finding fault with illegal aliens & their legal anti-law enforcement counterparts?<BR/><BR/>Wow, will wonders never cease?<BR/><BR/>You'd be wise to stop caring about our citizens Dennis<BR/><BR/>First of all, your elitist masters that run the Trib aren't too big on their writers speaking ill of the "new Americans", those modern day slaves that bring massive profit to corrupt business at the expense of American workers<BR/><BR/>And secondly, the Trib has been losing readers left & right because of their outrageous, pro-illegal alien stance.

The government has an obligation to protect the citizens from crime. False Id's and identity theft is a crime for a reason. It's there to protect the people and when it is abused and misued it creates very real problems.<BR/><BR/>There is no reasonable justification to allow those who were committing these crimes to continue committing them. The argument that people that were putting up with the crime before, for whatever reason, does not change that the crime they were putting up with affects all of us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19614248.post-37431049204770620722007-04-30T14:07:00.000-04:002007-04-30T14:07:00.000-04:00Great article.

The real complaint seems to be that a law some don't like is actually being enforced rather than ignored.Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03785008826044862704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19614248.post-89332091782034772342007-04-30T10:00:00.000-04:002007-04-30T10:00:00.000-04:00Thank you!

As soon as I heard about the crackdown, I thought of the Willis chiildren, and the license for bribe scandel. How quickly people forget. I'm not afraid to say that I am against illegal immigration, and I do believe that people that are here illiegally should be removed. It's not there right to be here because they're not citizens. Become a citzen, pay some taxes, and then talk to me about how my government goes about protecting me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
