“The pilgrims were illegal aliens” while being instructed to no longer use the word “minorities,” but to replace it with “emerging majorities."

I guess that's really what they are, an emerging tyrannical majority. They're coming. They're taking it. And you can't do anything to stop them.

One must present valid US immigration documents or proof of US citizenship inorder to get SNAP.

Illegal immigrants don't get SNAP.

But nice try bcspace.

Yes, "illegals" cannot be involved in the SNAP program. But since when did the basic facts ever stop bcspace and his silly "news" outlets from making stuff up? This is all about fear mongering, the kind of thing that turns decent people into a subgenius or ajax. Hate the immigrants because they're stealing from you! That's the narrative that prevails in Right Wing media. Well, with the exception of FOX Latino, of course. LoL!

From the official USDA list of eligibility requirements (emphasis added):

Immigrant Eligibility Requirements

The 2002 Farm Bill restores SNAP eligibility to most legal immigrants that:

- Have lived in the country for 5 years; or
- Are receiving disability-related assistance or benefits; or
- Are children under 18

Certain non-citizens such as those admitted for humanitarian reasons and those admitted for permanent residence may also be eligible for the program. Eligible household members can get SNAP benefits even if there are other members of the household that are not eligible.

Non-citizens that are in the U.S. temporarily, such as students, are not eligible.

Note the words "legal immigrants," "5 years," "humanitarian reasons," and "permanent residence."

But why should anyone really have to look this up? It is common knowledge.

But then again, bcspace lives in the bubble, where Brietbart and WND shapes the world he lives in.
