Help Them First

To writers sending letters regarding U.S. Representative Lee Zeldin calling for a federal review of the new New York State driver’s license law: Note, it is illegal immigrants — yes, illegal. The persons who entered this country illegally.

If you seriously think giving an illegal a driver’s license promotes safe driving, think again as you read the police log. Here’s something else you can do: Go to your local deli or supermarket at lunch and dinner time. Be advised of the amount of beer sold at this time as they drive away.

My argument is: illegal, nothing to do with an immigrant. Immigrants are a stronghold for our communities. Illegals are another story.

The United States has been giving far too much to illegals, as our own vets and citizens are being ignored. The streets are full of homeless citizens, and drug infested. Let’s help them first, clean up the streets, get as much help for them now.
