We are quickly approaching 3 million people who have signed an online petition asking for leniency for Harjinder Singh, the Indian illegal alien whose reckless driving resulted in three deaths.
(I'll give you one guess as to a commonality in most of the petition signers.)

More from Fox News:
If convicted, the petition requests that Singh receive a 'proportionate and reasonable' sentence, that parole eligibility be granted after part of his sentence is served and that alternatives to incarceration — like counseling or community service — be considered.
One of the reasons this petition is gaining ground is because, for some reason, in a tough economy with Americans needing jobs, a very large percentage of our truckers happen to be Punjabi. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's freeze on new CDLs for migrants is a financial blow to their ethnic group.
Yes, here's a full quote from the Hindustan Times:
Harsimrat Badal has also urged the Centre to take up the issue of the freezing of work visas of all foreign truck drivers by the US following the fatal crash.
'Punjabi and Sikh drivers make up 20 per cent of the United State' trucking industry, with around 1.5 lakh Sikh drivers engaging in trucking in the US. Any mass-level action against them would have a detrimental effect on trucking families and would be discriminatory in nature, considering the fact that Punjabis have built and sustained trucking logistics and trucking networks over decades,' she said.
1 out of 5 truckers in America is Sikh or Punjabi from India!
1 out of 5!
The petition is addressed to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
