      According to PJ Media, the Texas DPS report found that from October 2008 to April 2014, 177,588 "unique criminal alien defendants" were booked and committed 611,234 unique crimes, including 2,993 murders:

      3000 murders in ONE state over only a 6 year period

      not hard to believe its 63000 since 9/11 ---nation wide

        Bill, running under his 1990's policies, would be excluded from the Democratic machine. He'd also be excluded from the new GOP.

          • "Soulshine" by the Allman Bros is easily their most underrated song.

            Also, I wish that you guys would find a way to discuss these issues with respect and leave the venomous sarcasm off. I guess what I am saying is COMITY!

            In the end, no one will change their minds on any of this. Ever. Have fun, be nice. And when they are rude...still be nice.

            Call your mom, she misses you. Teach your child calculus or chess or how to play a musical instrument...or in Wiz's case, how to change the oil on a 1984 Massey Ferguson 290.

            • besides the human/crime cost we have this little tidbit

              Current policy prevents use of Medicaid or Obamacare funding for illegal immigrants. Despite this, Americans cross-subsidize health care for illegal immigrants to the tune of $18.5 billion a year . Of this total, federal taxpayers provided $11.2 billion in subsidized care to undocumented immigrants.


              there does seem to be a lot of venomous remarks directed from certain individuals due to politics AA you ignorant slut

                • Forget what I said about "Soulshine". The Allman Bros most underrated song is "Not My Cross to Bear".

                      Jeff, are you saying it's useful to draw a distinction between a racist president and a president who acts like one? What exactly is to be gained from such prevaricating?

                        Actually, it's Nobody Left to Run With Anymore. There were a few good late-period pre-post-Dickey songs. Who underrates Not My Cross to Bear anyways? One of the most common openers. Was on the Greatest Hits, I think. Part of the core playlist.

                        • I can't wait to legalize millions of illegal immigrants so they can work at low-skilled jobs and contribute to the economy when the situation is fairly good. When the eventual economic downturn arrives, I'm sure that Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Shumer, Steny Hoyer and the gang will feed and clothe the newly unemployed citizens from their own pockets so as not to create a burden on taxpayers.


                          Government is the great fiction, through which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody else.
                          I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

                            Guess I should have qualified this as great songs that have become obscure. The only Allman's tunes most people know anymore and get play on the classic rock stations is Midnight Rider and Rambling Man. Maybe, Whipping Post, and Melissa. And even in its day, Cross to Bear wasn't a commercial success even though they opened some shows with it (along with its sister song, "don't want you no more").

                            It's funny you mention Nobody Left to Run With. It's not a fav of mine. Something about the tempo. Or something. To each their own.
