Tamerlan on welfare? Okay, something ain't right.

As I understand it, the younger brother Dzhokar was a naturalized citizen, but the big brother Tamerlan was not. I'm reading all this stuff now that Tamerlan was on welfare. So is that how it works, you can be on welfare and you don't even have to be a full on citizen? Why would we even let them live here then? Talk about move to a country and then be a burden on it without even having full citizenship.

I feel a bit better knowing the key word here is "was". I think poor Tamerlan has cashed his last welfare check.

As much as I would like to feel better knowing that I cannot. I cringe in fear to think of how many others there are just like Tamerlan in this country. People that our country is supporting their entire lives and yet they are plotting to attack America.

To pour some salt into the wound- he drove a fucking Mercedes Benz, wore designer clothes (and no, not JC Penny designer clothes)... That's just infuriating by itself that a welfare recipient can somehow afford a nice car and nice clothes while my neighbor works 2 jobs and can barely afford to fill the tank of his beater Honda. And it does beg the question, did he cash a welfare check and turn around and buy his bomb making materials from that money?

Neither had received benefits in the last year, according to reports.

Wasn't the Benz the jacked car?

You cannot receive benefits if you are not a citizen. Your children can which by default gives you benefits.

[Dingo]

OMG... An immigrant collecting welfare fraudulently to the detriment of the rest of us? What's next... trying to ban guns?

He drove a Benz sedan. They jacked an ML series SUV.

Is that what ran him over?
