[...] As for people of questionable immigration status working in airport security…you may remember that’s not as rare as we might like to think. [...]

The way to do it is to make an example of a few businessmen, but going after a few illegal aliens makes a good show, while still encouraging the free flow of labor across the Mexican border to marry American capital with Mexican labor in the Bush War on Wages.

Though your comment smacks of BDS, I still gotta say:
+1 to that.
You wanna send a real message? Fine and jail the club owners. But that would take the courage to follow the law, something the current administration seems none too eager to do.

I guess these illegals were doing more jobs that American citizens wouldn’t do, right? Illegals with guns and working as security guards? Remember that story about the illegal who stole his dead cousin’s identification to become a cop somewhere in the Midwest? That’s even scarier.

I have a part-time retail job. We require a photo ID any time someone wants to use a credit/debit card.

It is actually a violation of your stores agreement with the credit card company to ask for or require ID. A Visa/MC merchant MAY NOT refuse a transaction if the customer refuses to provide ID. They can ask for it under certain circumstances, but they can’t refuse the transaction if you don’t want to provide it. So, a thief takes your card that says “see ID” and makes a purchase… if the cashier actually looks at the back of the card (many don’t) and follows the rule, all they will do is hand the card back to the thief and say “sign it.” The thief signs it (another good tidbit from the merchant rules is that the signature need not be legible or match the name on the card) and off they go with your card and their purchased goods… remember, the cashier cannot deny them based on refusal to present ID.

#12…They are all probably Latino clubs. I sent a note
to Perry and received a snarky form letter about how
TX didn’t need a law like Oklahoma has passed. He
thinks he will get elected to a third term. Not if a
lot of us can help it.

Too late. They’re already burrowed in tight-as-ticks. I see an hispano-economy growing inside our own even as we speak. Thanks to George, Teddy and all their seditious friends. “Our women won’t have babies so let’s just use theirs.” Si, si pueda!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, another logical extension of the off-the-books ethic that has poisoned American business. Funny, if employers put these shadow workers on the books and paid their payroll taxes, Social Security would be solvent in perpetuity.

…and when do we start seeing EMPLOYERS and Business Execs, frog marched in handcuffs in front of judges???

When a few of these Chicken Plant Managers, and Execs who have suppressed wages that have Dried up jobs for LEGAL Workers in various areas, they will get the idea of NOT holding jobs for the sole purpose of attracting illegal workers.

I’m sure Dallas isn’t the only place this goes on. I wish they would lock up the employers too but don’t think that will happen. Until they do that, nothing much will change. Unfortunately, we have the three idiots running for potus and not one of them give a wit about the illegals and the problems they cause.

the only reason that they could get the gumption to go after these illegals was that guns were involved. Otherwise the Dallas PD and D.A.s office would never have allowed it.

Yeah too bad that Memphis didn’t at least lock up and deport “King Willie” and his resignation letter was a farce.

I have to wonder if any of these illegals took away any of the policemen’s part time job and income.

At least some of the states and communities in this country are stepping up to the plate and doing the job the Department of Homeland Insecurity refuses to do. If Dallas, TX really wants to impress me they could go after the employers too.

Watch for less of this kind of sting after the election. Illegals will have an open invitation from whomever occupies the ~~White~~ Pander House.

I’ll have to look up the club names. They will not likely be familiar to me, since I have no life to speak of.

But why would a nightclub security guard need a gun? I probably don’t spend much time in that part of town.
