[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 414919, member: 3306"] It is partially true according to Snopes.com. Go the the Urban Legends References Pages, type in Illegal Aliens and then go to Where Your Taxes Go. I get this stuff all the time, not just on illegals, but on everything else someone can get mad about. I understand that illegal immigration is a frustrating issue, but I dont get why some people, (and I am not picking our you flaboy?) have to take facts and bend them to fit their agenda, especially if it promotes hatred. And it does. Some guy can read inflamatory stuff like this and use it as an excuse to do Lord knows what. I just think that there was enough hatred and ill feelings before the internet. Now, with the click of a mouse, misinformation can spread even faster, to potentially thousands of people per day. I am truly not picking on you, flaboy?. Please don't take it as such. This has been one of my many soap boxes lately! My husband gets stuff every day that are just out and out lies. People read them and believe. This particular article contains some truths, but some of the information is bent to fit the intentions of whoever started circulating it to begin with. Again, apologies if I offended. [/QUOTE]
