" You have no idea how stupid some white people are like yourself usa steve. They sell their identity for money,either to get out of debt, for drugs, or whatever reason, then you call it identity theft. Open up your eyes and take a look around you. You open up a window, they are gonna keep on crawling in. "

" HE MAY BE FROM HULL, but he is not Dutch! I knew the minute I saw "identity theft", that a person of interest or "illegal alien" was involved. "
