I'm with you....and so are the majority of Americans. I would love to join in on a march to put an end to this nonsense. But sadly, when I apply for a real job, and most recently with a Police Department that pays Spanish Speaking employees more, they will label me as a racist. It is so backwards!

Isn't there something that we can do? Really, I am all for kicking these Mexicans back to "Meh-hico". Only in the Twilight Zone, huh?

I guess this was the logical solution to being turned down for a decent refi rate, or a new car note. In the worst market for car sellers but the best for buyers in years, this "person" decides that other insurance consumers, should foot the bill for their wants or inadequacies, by filing a fraudulent insurance claim. Unfortunately, one of the co-conspirators was "accidentally" killed during the execution of the scheme.
So, when an organized criminal enterprise results in a death, and NOBODY does jail time, how can you dissuade others from insurance fraud, especially if it doesn't result in a death. I guess the prosecutors don't want to touch an insurance fraud case unless it means a feather in their cap for prosecuting a group of defendants on multiple charges, or it has a unique angle like this case. Interesting form of punishment. Don't do this again or you might go to jail. I wonder if anyone involved ever complains about the high cost of insurance. Who cares about small potatoes anyway, the entire banking industry was robbed, an inside job, and little was done about that. Goes to show, things are tough all over. Hey, I just spent fifteen minutes or less reading why I can't save any money on my car insurance premiums.

At least this time one of the criminals died while perfecting their perfect crime.
If that only happened more often we wouldn’t need the ever so easy on crime Judge Perry.

It’s hard to read this BS and not wonder the citizenship of those involved, either way as long as they keep killing their own, hey guys go crazy.

Jay wrote on November 08, 2009 02:35 PM: Why would you assume these guys are illegal? That is plain stupid. Plenty of people have Spanish names, yet are here legally/were born in this country.

What these guys did is despicable and prison time is called for. However, their consequences should have no correlation to their national origin.

The rest of us need ID, registration and insurance wrote on November 08, 2009 08:48 AM: Next their not going to require these guys to have a driver license, vehicle registration or insurance.

Oh that's right, it's already a policy in San Francisco. If an illegal gets pulled over for a traffic violation, the cop has to give the perp 20 minutes to contact someone to pick them up, with no ticket or arrest.

I'm not sure who has to provide the cell phone.
