What do you think illegal alien arrested with false identity received government benefits student aid food?

And food stamps. I Thought illegals could not collect any of these ?KALISPELL - An El Salvadoran who was in the United States illegally has been sentenced to eight years in prison for using a false identity to receive government benefits.Tomas D. Ramirez, 44, was ordered to pay $18,000 in restitution for federal and state student aid and food stamps he received illegally.He was told he would be deported again upon completion of his sentence.Ramirez has a criminal record in the United States dating back 20 years, with convictions for burglary and theft in Napa County, Calif., in 1987. He was deported, but re-entered the United States using a different name and was later convicted of drug trafficking in Portland, Ore.





Between August 2000 and March 2006, Ramirez was arrested on 10 different occasions, with charges including three DUIs, drug possession and eluding a police officer.





Ramirez was found to be using a false identity when the man whose identity he had stolen applied for college financial aid and learned there were already some loans and grants in his name.

Everybody knows that illegals receive these benefits, even pros. Many states do not have a policy for dealing with illegal immigration and many illegals have stolen identities. Those who say illegals do not receive these benefits are at best fooling themselves, some states do a decent job preventing the use of social programs by illegal immigrants many states have no real policy to deal with these issue's and much abuse occurs.





Sad part is the guy who had his identity stolen will not be able to receive student aid until this whole mess is cleared up which could take a long time, his education is on hold.What do you think illegal alien arrested with false identity received government benefits student aid food?
Identity theft. We see it is alive and well among these criminals.
I can't understand why it is illegal to hang people like that. I'll bet if an American would do that crap in Mexico , the offender would at least be in some filthy Mexican jail for many years.





You are right Lynnie.But It is MOSTLY Mexicans.
welcome to our problem...not just mexicans...
Obviously, our system is not working. It would appear that the only way to stop all this is to create a U. S. NATIONAL ID CARD.


This card would be a photo ID, with other identifying information encoded into the card. This Card would positively Identify Legal Citizens to Police, and other Agencies that a person might come into contact with due to illegal actions or activities.


With today's advances, such a CARD is Possible, and Needed.


Illegals could then easily be identified when applying for a Job, Welfare, schooling, medical care, etc.


To those who object to a National ID card have NO LEGAL Objection, since we all have Driver Licenses, Social Security Cards, Medicare Cards, Medical Insurance Cards, etc.


The only Possible REASONS for Objecting to the National Card would be that one is illegally in Our Country, is a wanted Criminal, or works for the American? Civil Liberties Union!!
This happens every day and its not just Mexicans, although they are the majority.
It is B##l S@@T I have no problem with immagration at all I have issue with rewarding criminals, and crossing the borders illegaly is a CRIME. Argue all you want it is a crime.
illegals can get welfare,, check out the center for immigrant studies,,
Thank your elected officials. Mainly Boxer, Pelosi, and Feinstink. did you vote for any of these traitors?
This should be mandatory reading for those who keep defending the illegals by repeating that they do not use or abuse the social services of the USA.
Everybody most certainly is NOT entitled to welfare in the U.S., that is a ridiculous statement, Eduardo. The American tax payers already pay enough by housing them in prison, putting up with them in our schools, watching our hospitals close, and ID theft skyrocket. A large majority of illegals have made it clear that THEY think their entitled to whatever monetary gain they seek and if we don't give it, they'll just steal it.
I think that he will be right back her after he is deported.Secure our borders
Every illegal alien, with a decent job, knows how to steal a person's identity and has stolen at least one or paid to have it stolen!





There is no way to get this knowledge or service accept from within the career criminal world. They know their way around the world of crime as well as any gangster.





How can anyone want people like this to get amnesty for knowing the lives of crime they have lived over the years?





They would not want that for you or me if we, as American citizens, had the same criminal tendencies! They would, and rightly so, want us thrown in prison to protect them from career criminals who steal by such stealthy means.





We are of course racists for wanting the same thing for illegal aliens.
Let them get welfare it is intitled to EVERYBODY of any race not just american's!
