Illegal Aliens: Unsafe at Any Speed
By Joan Harrold Messner

Sometimes you just shake your head in disbelief, dismay and disgust. Do you know what I mean? Sometimes you see a person, see a headline, hear a broadcast or a speech and it is so stunning, so flabbergasting, so outrageously unreasonable that you are at a complete loss for a coherent and reasonable reaction. All you can do is shake your head.

That happened to me Saturday. There was supposed to be a public discussion about giving driving licenses to undocumented persons (that is, illegal aliens); the governor and the current head of the New York Department of Motor Vehicles were both invited, so naturally, I saw it as an important meeting that I wanted to attend. I arrived and got on line for the elevator. And was turned away!
