Driver's licenses for illegal aliens...Annapolis Maryland !?!
http://www.hometownannapolis.com/cgi...3/03_26-08/OPN Our say: Driver's licenses for illegal aliens: It's a joke, right?
By THE CAPITAL EDITORIAL BOARD WHEN WE FIRST heard about a bill to give driver's licenses to illegal aliens, we thought there was a mistake. When we live in a world of tightened security, why would any legislator in his right mind want to give identification to an immigrant who is here illegally? Some state legislators apparently weren't in their right mind. House Bill 838 would prevent the Motor Vehicle Administration from requiring an applicant to show national origin or immigration status. Supporters of the bill, mostly from the Hispanic community, say illegal aliens are afraid to apply for driver's licenses because they may get caught and returned to their homeland. They say illegal aliens are driving cars now, but without licenses or insurance. Allowing them to qualify for driver's licenses would remove untrained, uninsured alien motorists from the street. While we fully sympathize with the plight of Hispanic immigrants, we cannot fathom why legislators would want to authorize a legal document for an illegal immigrant. Would they allow them gun permits? The right to vote? The right to hold public office? This isn't about helping just the Hispanic population, because what applies to them would apply to all illegal immigrants. We shouldn't have to remind legislators that this country has been terrorized by illegal immigrants, some of whom held fake driver's licenses. A driver's license is all that is needed to get through airport security. So, while Congress and even the Maryland legislature go about tightening security, the House of Delegates is trying to liberalize it. It just doesn't make sense. Thankfully, less liberal delegates saw the problem and tried to amend House Bill 838. But because the amendments were seen as too restrictive, supporters asked that the issue be turned over to a task force for further study. That measure passed the House and now goes to the Senate for a vote, where hopefully saner minds will prevail.

MORTARDUDE...
There will always be that problem, as long as lawmakers, just like news people keep using politically conjured-up, people-pacifying and INCORRECT ENGLISH. There is no such thing as an: "Illegal Immigrant".
In America, one is either A Citizen, an Immigrant (here with a visa by quota and wishing to become a citizen), a Visitor ( one with visa and passport), or A CRIMINALLY ILLEGAL ALIEN (one un-documented and having snuck into the country. Still, and in fairness, one must admit that falsely calling CRIMINALLY ILLEGAL ALIENS erroneously as Illegal Immigrants,...does sort-of keep The American Public from being thoroughly-bent-out-of-shape with their politicos and/or lawmakers, and rightfully so especially during warfare. Maybe this weird terminology might get straightened-out after our next: "9/11"? Hey,...who knows? Neil :cd: |
