ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIME VICTIMS
Every day American citizens die at the hand of illegal aliens in this nation.  Some were killed by known criminals, others
were  victims of gangs, and yet others were simply  in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Regardless the reason, these
deaths should never have occurred and those that caused them should never have been allowed to continue to break the
laws of this nation by remaining in this country illegally in the first place.  They are covered up and ignored but regardless
one thing is for certain, we, the American citizens will never forget!
