Illegal Aliens Easy Prey to Their Own Lawlessness as the MSM Weeps

When residents of Wynscape apartments wanted phone cards to call Mexico, El Salvador or Honduras, they didn't need to leave the north DeKalb County [Georgia] complex: A woman sold them out of her unit.
They could buy beer, too. All it took was a knock on the door of another of the 272 apartments.
Here, where many residents don't drive and cash is king, an underground marketplace has thrived.
But two murders at the complex's unofficial convenience store — a second-story unit that offered items from batteries to lime-flavored potato chips — has shed a tragic light on the shadow economy familiar to new immigrants in Georgia. […]
In the wake of the double murder at Wynscape, residents came forward to report the apartment that sells beer and the one with phone cards, said Sara Naranjo, a leasing agent with the company that manages the complex. Management ordered renters there to stop the sales, she said.
Atlanta's Urinal-Constipation seems to think this amounts to oppression. Knowledge Is Power has a different take:
Not only do they disregard our immigration laws; they also scoff at zoning, taxing, and health codes. But that's OK — it's just a part of their culture. I just don't understand why criminal invaders bust their asses so hard to sneak into this country "for a better life" and then proceed to transform their neighborhoods into third-world cesspools like those from whence they came.
The unlicensed store gunmen were probably illegal aliens too, but never mind, it's our fault:
The robberies and murders would wane, [construction worker and probable illegal alien Hector] Cabrera said, if police took crimes in the Latino community more seriously.
How about if illegal aliens took our laws more seriously? But wait, there are more indignities to be endured on the "undocumented American" trail of tears:
A new state immigration law has made it harder for illegal immigrants to obtain license plates. And some fear deportation for traffic violations. […] Manuel Morales, who no longer drives, said grocery shopping isn't easy. He sometimes walks across the I-85 overpass to a Publix. But staples from his native Mexico are a $10 cab ride away on Buford Highway.
Why aren't social workers bringing Mexican cuisine to his door? Excuse me, I'm going to burst into tears.
The world's small violin, on which to play "My Heart Cries for You" for illegal alien colonists.
