Reminds me of a joke. Why were there only ten thousand Mexicans at the Alamo?....They only had one pick up truck.

From the article: “Taco Giro, which operates nine locations in the state and one in Mexico, lost about 10 percent of its staff after ICE agents raided their homes.”

Just doing some math here:
1 location in Mexico
9 locations in USA

Now 10% of the staff is deported - sounds like the solution should be:
2 locations in Mexico
8 locations in USA

Just sayin...

Headline - as most of them in the msm are - is totally misleading:

"Taco chain forced to shut seven restaurants after workers are detained by ICE"

Should read:

"Taco chain forced to shut seven restaurants after illegal workers are detained by ICE"

So, blacks, whites and legal Mexicans can’t cook Mexican food?

It sounds like Taco Giro needs a hard attitude adjustment.

Jim Bowie sees 10,000 Mexicans running toward the Alamo:
“Travis, you SOB. Did you order concrete work?”

1 restaurant in Mexico
9 restaurants in the U.S.
-7 restaurants closed in the U.S.

That leaves 1 restaurant in Mexico and 2 in the U.S. until those close also.

Sounds like a trafficking operation.

Some years ago I ate regularly at a Mexican restaurant near the bus station in San Antonio. Service was good and the food was great. Then one day I went in and service was terrible - not many waiters around. There were a couple of tables of INS guys, and I figured a bunch of the employees went out the back door when they came in. All the INS guys seemed to want was some good food.

Why are we not hearing about the Large Fines Arrests and Jail time for the owners???

Why hasn’t the IRS paid the owner a visit????

We are wining but lets make it a Grand Slam!

Anyone else wonder if senior Rodriguez, as director of operations, insured that all applicant’s I-9’s were filled out and verified prior to these employees ever clocking in? The violations at that level result in compounded fines. I sure hope the owners, director of operations and any manager involved the violations are personally held accountable and fined. That is how you stop these illegals from getting employed over Americans.

“”Did this happen on Taco Tuesday? It could be anarchy.””

I prefer Tazer Tuesdays from Shane’s Dumb Criminals

Here is Shane’s main page

Here are over a hundred of the Tazer Tuesdays videos. Shane’s comments are hilarious. Sometimes, he calls the Tazer deployment a dose of Act-Right.
