Thier exsists a sub-culture in Montgomery County thats rips the very fabric for which we call United States. If we are not careful The next president will be Hispanic and we will all be speaking Espanol.Most of American dollars are going out of the country exported to other countries.In Montgomery County fewer than 4 out of 10 people are U.S Citizens. Go to the stores and look . The Majestrate has given what wasnt thiers to give the illegal mmigrants have taken what wasnt thiers to take Corporations ask for money to feed thier greed the government now blind turns its back to the people and now together we face our depression God Help us.citizens

In MoCo we now have 3 day laborer sites. Do these people pay taxes or is this part of an underground economy? Some of the reasons I (a U.S. citizen) am against illegals: they are stealing school resources away from our children who need extra help; Higher taxes for us; squeezing out the middle class in MoCo; Financial ruin for some hospitals in the area; I don't feel like learning Spanish; Increased violent crime; increase in slum areas; social security in jeopardy; and politicians who turn a deaf ear to my wishes. Illegals are not legally here and if sanctuary counties like MoCo can break laws I propose that each and every U.S. citizen in the county be given one free "get out of jail" card of their choosing! Oops, sounds like the beginning of anarchy.

Interesting that a Mexican Drug Lord would feel comfortable enough to dine in Montgomery County. Montgomery County Ike Leggett and his partners at CASA of Maryland have made Maryland a sanctuary for illegal aliens and Hispanic gangs. HelpSaveMaryland.com

Perhaps the county needs to remove Mr. Leggett from his position. IF the people want this service gone, then the people who pay the money, should get their way. I'm tired of my tax dollars going to help illegals as well.
