Dallas takes a stand on illegal immigration

Anyone see this on the news? I'm having a tough time finding it on the Internet.

Seems Dallas is trying to pass a bill that will allow local police to check legal status as well as requiring employers to check legal status before hiring.

The first thing that jumps out at me in the story is the use of the term “anti-immigration” instead of “anti-illegal-immigration”.

It's actually Farmer's Branch, TX, a Dallas suburb.

If ya wanna know how folks that visited this site feel about it - check out the poll in the story. Awhopping 82% would support such an ordinance in Houston.

The "Mayor"

I would pay the way for the Mayor to go to the Texas town and copy this ordinance for Dodge City.

Well, the Mayor would get a free trip, and you would get a copy of an ordinance that would never be implemented, Booger!! Personally, I would vote for the ordinance. However, our "powers to be" in DC would never support it--------so, Deal or No Deal--------------------------No Deal, Howie!!!

But the bad thing is someone like the ACLU (AMERICAN? Civil Liberties) will fight this and some Activist Judge will outlaw it....
