It’s unclear what universe the New York Times is living in, but can we stop playing the sympathy game for people who steal other people’s identity? In the pursuit of ensuring no human is labeled illegal, this illegal alien illegally stole someone’s identity — which, of course, is illegal. And the only victim here is the person whose identity was stolen. If that isn’t an illegal slap in the face of our justice system, nothing is.
The New York Times is really out there claiming that because “thousands of undocumented workers rely on fraudulent Social Security numbers,” somehow that makes them the victim. They even dedicated an article to the illegal who stole the Social Security number of an innocent American.
