Greyhound screens for illegal immigrants
The Casper Star Tribune is reporting...
Greyhound agents prepare a bus heading for Los Angeles as a passenger boards Tuesday in San Diego. Greyhound has implemented procedures to deter the use of the buses by illegal immigrants.Why is a private bus company doing the job of the immigration dept. or law enforcement?
SAN DIEGO -- Greyhound Lines Inc., the nation's largest intercity bus company, has threatened to fire employees who sell bus tickets to illegal immigrants under an internal policy that some Hispanic advocacy groups are calling an invitation to racial profiling.
The "Transportation of Illegal Aliens" policy warns Greyhound's customer service employees to beware of people in large groups, moving in single file and traveling with little or no luggage. It says other telltale signs include people "trying to hide or stay out of plain view" or large groups led by a "guide" who holds everyone's tickets.
Greyhound also says immigrant smugglers give themselves away by calling bus stations to ask if immigration authorities are present, and by loitering, repeatedly buying large numbers of tickets for other people and using phrases like, "These guys just crossed the line," "my cargo," and "I've got to move my people."

I agree with SB, get them out of here. I recently had to stand in line at my favorite supermarket with a bunch of these creatures.
They were coughing and hacking all over the place...like they had TB and wanted to make sure they infected the store. They also paid with food stamps. Totally disgusting.
Too bad we can't get out fearless leader to mandate a similar law to protect our country.
