Or that incident when all those people who got shot in Midtown - was it nine bystanders? - when the police were chasing a murder suspect there and just shooting haphazardly. I can't remember if it was earlier this year or late last year, it was that guy who shot his former boss/coworker, but he never fired at the bystanders. Got hushed up big time - I'm sure each of those people got nice payouts from the city because I never heard about it again. [ Reply | More

Why more? Well, there are 40 million foreign-born U.S. residents -- 20 percent whom have immigrated (legally I might add) since 2005. They needed passports to get here, and that would mean an additional 8 million passport holders. Further, because of the 40 million foreign-born U.S. residents, about 43 percent have become naturalized U.S. citizens. That means that on the high side, there may be an additional 22.5 million foreign passport holders in the United States. [ Reply | More
