What does this mean?. "C'est qui qui a raison."
Here is a link to what I was reading with this phrase: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/3659243423798982/
It contains imagined complaints about immigrants and counters them with facts.
I don't understand why there are two qui's.

It looks like a mistake, but it isn't.
The question translates as 'Who is it who's right?'. It just looks odd because the informal French word order means that the two 'who's' are next to each other. The first 'qui' the question word 'C'est qui..?' and the second one is the relative pronoun.

Many people say it (I do), but it's much frowned upon.
A more correct way is simple "Qui a raison ?"
