Middle aged person found to never have possessed a license (and be a criminal)…can’t write checks, board airplanes, or do many other adult acts legally…could someone please call ICE?
I don’t care if you are from Mexico or Mumbai, Istanbul or Ireland if you are here illegally you need to be treated as the criminal that you are.
