Hey sugar britches absolutely 0 emotional content
There is no 'relationship' lol
For all I know you could be sitting in a jail cell (and vice versa) that could make the beer difficult
I have no interest in illegals, only stating that this guy was not one
You need to lighten up before you blow a gasket
Anger is to the soul and joy as cancer is to the flesh
Don't sweat immigrants. They don't give a rats *** about you lol

Hey bud, it's the internet. Don't take it so personal. However, I am completely flattered that you are so interested in my life. If your in Houston, IM me. Maybe we can meet up for a beer. I will even sign an autograph for you.
For someone with no politics, you sure have have a lot to say about illegal immigrants.

They ignore illegals who run red lights and cause serious accidents then flee?
No, you are crazy because you think you stated clearly what happened
You weren't there, unless astral projection counts
Lighten up skippy

If you look back at my early post it said he should have been detained for fleeing the scene, but HPD gets very busy and purposely overlooks a lot.
"What kind of banana republic is Texas?" One that is chalked full of more illegals than is can take care of.
Also, now you are trying to infer that I am crazy for stating what happened?

I have to beg to differ. I understand the point that the chamber of commerce wants them here for cheap labor, but I also see two political parties trying to get to the front of the line to say "We want you here and we want your vote" to illegal alien South Americans..... all the meanwhile at mine and everyone else's expense.
I feel like I'm caught in the middle of a custody battle between two abusive parents.

They don't fund campaigns
Business is the sole benefactor
Business funds campaigns
They are being used as a political platform pandering to a segment of the electorate that is miserable and needs something to hate to distract them from their self-loathing
They are a benefit
Cheap labor
Consumers, food, rent, etc
Pay taxes for services they can't partake of
Pay SS tax and can't ever collect
If they all vanished tomorrow we'd be screwed
Like the untouchables in India they have their place

Are you *** serious? You are on an AMG board, there is no one here sorry about their lot in life nor are they blaming someone! Get a grip there buddy. But we are complaining that we support these people that come here illegally. Go through the proper channels. Everyday, there is illegals committing crimes in Houston, just read up on it on chron.com. No sugar coating it.
They can't use status to initiate an encounter
But if one is initiated for another reason they can inquire
% illegals of population
Mid 90's 1%
2000 1.5
2008 4
Now 3.6 or so
Bush allowed this to happen...cheap labor
Jobs Americans won't do
Total immigrants 43 mil
Legal 32 mil or 10% of the population
Illegal 11 mil less than 4%
If they were gone tomorrow economic calamity
They provide more value than they recieve
Not saying right or wrong, just fact
Sorry, wrong forum, but tired of people blaming others for their lot in life
Take responsibility

Not sure why you think the car brand a person drives is indicative of their emotional health
Simmer down lil' cowpoke, you're getting all bunged up
It is you who needs to get a 'grip' on 'it' (and apparently a lot off other things)
Own your life. Quit whining...illegals are the least of your problems, if they are ANY part of your problems
They contribute as much to society as you, perhaps more
A 2007 study by University of California, Irvine, sociologist Rubén G. Rumbaut, found that for every ethnic group, without exception, incarceration rates among young men are lowest for immigrants, even those who are the least educated. This holds true especially for the Mexicans, Salvadorans, and Guatemalans who make up the bulk of the undocumented population.
The 3.5 percent incarceration rate for native-born men age 18-39 was five times higher than the 0.7 percent rate for immigrant men in 2000{Figure 5}. Among male high-school dropouts, 9.8 percent of the native-born were behind bars in 2000, compared to only 1.3 percent of immigrants.
In 2000, 0.7 percent of foreign-born Mexican men and 0.5 percent of foreign-born Salvadoran and Guatemalan men were in prison. Among male high-school dropouts, 0.7 percent of foreign-born Mexicans and 0.6 percent of foreign-born Salvadorans and Guatemalans were behind bars in 2000.
Conclusion
The problem of crime in the United States is not caused or even aggravated by immigrants, regardless of their legal status. This is hardly surprising since immigrants come to the United States to pursue economic and educational opportunities not available in their home countries and to build better lives for themselves and their families. As a result, they have little to gain and much to lose by breaking the law. Undocumented immigrants in particular have even more reason to not run afoul of the law given the risk of deportation that their lack of legal status entails. Public policies must be based on facts, not anecdotes or emotions. And the fact is that the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals.

You seem to have a healthy perspective
Seriously though
Who would think driving an AMG (or M, etc) means they are better adjusted
Now THAT is crazy
I definitely have a screw loose
And I'm not talking about my headbolt(s)

This thread is very similar to one I started on the M3 board a couple of years ago after my car had been repeatedly sodomized by several "undocumented guests". It seems that C63 owners do have something in common with M3 owners, their disagreement on immigration policy.

Wait, this thread is about someone's car getting in a wreck? Are you sure? 
Nothing sparks debate like immigration or incarceration policy and reality here in the modern-day US. At least we all agree that legalized cannabis and same-sex marriage is cool, right
FLAME ON!!! PS not that anyone cares and it couldn't be more off topic but I sure do like my new Eurocharged V5 tune...
