Hell yes!

A Mexican with no insurance ran through my house with his car. He was 18, drunk, driving a car paid with cash which still had the temporary tag on it. He drove through my bushes, air conditioners, and garage. Once the car went into my garage, he hit both of my cars and a new freezer we just placed out there. One car was knocked through the garage door making it impossible for me to remove my cars until I took the door apart (at 3:40 in the morning in the cold). Punk ran off and went to emergency room to avoid a hit and run charge. He was arrested and slapped on the hand by the judge. This was two years ago. The damage was close to $30,000. He didn't pay a cent. All of that to say, it's not just my taxes going to cover "free" health cae for illegal immigrants, but also my insurance, insurance deductables, and insurance premium increases. So, Hell Yes it's okay.

Yznyhmr - are you saying that all Mexicans should be punished for what one person did? How about all 18 year olds? Or all drunks? And what does any of that have to do with social security?

Punishing that one, would be a good start.

If it weren't for undocumented (and completely LEGAL) immigrants contributing billions upon billions of dollars into the economy and into Social Security, it would have ceased to exist already.

There are no illegal immigrants in America, and the immigration status of the person who hit you had nothing to do with it. Would you feel better if it were a broke American citizen who was drunk driving through your house without insurance and caused all that damage?

Putting his ass in jail for about 2 years followed by kicking him out would have been a great start.
