9 out of 10 comments here are pure greed and hate. come on people, in what way has an illegal immigrant has affected you in a negative way or even bothered u in some way. we don't own this country, we were just born here, all of us come from immigrants except the native Americans that were already here when the rest of us invaded their land. all you people leaving this negative comments; don't hate yourself or your everyday life and get it out on this other innocent people, grow up and enjoy life. its funny and amazes me when you go to a mexican restaurant and is full of american citizens, but yet they hate immigrants, especially the latino community. they deserve a chance especially the youth, they just here to work hard, get educated and move up in life, somebody has to do it.

Roy Cooper is becoming more and more useless as time goes on, and people keep electing him each time. He was a bust as a senator and even worse now.

Let's see... They are NOT legal immigrants so that means that they don't pay taxes and send most of their paychecks back home to whatever country they are from- torchhappysean

Ah, ANOTHER person comments without having read the story!

They are WORKING LEGALLY.

They have real jobs, paying real taxes.

And they came here as children, so they're not "sending money back to their home country" because this IS their home country. They were raised here since they were little kids, many have never even BEEN to their home country as adults, and wouldn't have any to 'send money back' to.

If you're going to join the discussion can you at least understand what you are discussing first? Thanks!

Let's see... They are NOT legal immigrants so that means that they don't pay taxes and send most of their paychecks back home to whatever country they are from, and last but not least overburden our welfare and healthcare systems. But they feel that they should be allowed to drive legally? I SAY NO!!! I feel that every illegal that applies should have Homeland Security arrest them ON THE SPOT and deport them immediately!!!

guadalupesalinas70: My ID was stolen and used by an ILLEGAL, I am fighting over a student loan taken in MY name by an ILLEGAL, and my sister was murdered by an ILLEGAL, and YOU demand tthat we support YOU because YOU are an ILLEGAL ALIEN? No, thank you. I can do without those headaches and heartbreaks. I have NO respect for illegals whatsoever. Do it the right way, but you are NOT doing that. You come in here telling us that you are illegal and want acceptance? No way.

"Too bad there were no American Indians here today to comment on the subject of "illegals"."

There are a lot of us here, you just don't listen. Why don't you try that?

guadalupesalinas70, so you are an illegal alien? OK, what makes you think you are OWED something? It's not OUR fault that your parents broke the law, yet every one of us are paying for it in the long run. Is that supposed to make us happy? There is a lot more that I want to say, but I will not get banned from here because of you.

That would be their parents fault not mine. Bad stuff happens everyday, that's life.- umop apisdn

So your answer is "Well, her parents did something wrong when she's 2... therefore we should completely destroy the life she knows to punish her for what her PARENTS did"?

That's your actual answer?

Wow.
