From Mary

Dear City Counsel,

I am sick and tired of hearing about Americans being killed by illegal aliens and our lovely city adding to the outrage.

The mother of seven being killed on MOTHER'S DAY was tragic. Seven children and a husband who will never have their mother and wife to experience their children's firsts - dates, proms, wedding and birth of grandchildren. The wife in San Fran who's husband and two sons were murdered by illegals in June. The father of two in Florida, last week killed by an illegal immigrate in front of his daughter at the Post Office. The list goes on and on and on and on and on. Every week I hear about a new travesty and YOU can do something to make a difference.

I am upset that you have made Portland a haven for illegals and the Day Labor site you opened is illegal. You are breaking the law !!!!

Illegals have personally and literally hit home. In January our son was driving home after visiting us late one evening. As he crossed the 205 on Glisan -east bound- he was hit by an illegal alien coming off the freeway full speed, running the light and caused over $8,000 worth of damage to his 2 month old car. We were fortunate he was not injured and there were 3 witnesses. The man was an uninsured motorist, spoke no English and the car was registered in Mexico. He was here illegally and our insurance company is having to absorb the costs as they try and recoup the money. GOOD LUCK !!! We are out our deductible and time dealing with the insurance company and repair shop.

I listen to Victoria Taft and KPAM among others. I am getting tired of Portland's City Counsel and the ways you break the law.

I am writing to let you know how my husband and I are tired of your illegal ways.
