Illegal Aliens Use Greyhound!
Greyhound corp. web site ^ | 1/25/06 | Charles Lawrence

Founded in 1914, Greyhound Lines, Inc. is the largest provider of intercity bus transportation, serving more than 3,100 destinations with 16,000 daily departures across North America. It has become an American icon, providing safe, enjoyable and affordable travel to 22 million passengers each year. The Greyhound running dog is one of the most-recognized brands in the world . . .

Greyhound has four subsidiaries in the United States, which are a part of the nationwide Greyhound network. They include: Carolina Trailways, serving the Southeast; Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma Coaches ("TNM&O"), serving the Southwest; Valley Transit Company, serving the Texas-Mexico border, and Vermont Transit, serving New England.

In addition, Greyhound has interline partnerships with a number of independent bus lines across the United States. These bus companies provide complementary service to Greyhound Lines' existing schedules and link to many of the smaller towns in Greyhound Lines' national route system . . .

For those within Mexico who wish to travel by Greyhound in the United States, Greyhound subsidiary Greyhound de Mexico can sell Greyhound tickets at one of more than 100 agencies located throughout Mexico. The agencies also sell tickets for several Mexican bus companies, like Estrella Blanca, which connect to Greyhound service at the United States-Mexico border cities.

The very fact that you're asking that stupid question shows your implicit approval to illegals driving housing prices through the roof in our urban areas.

You're really a rather dense troll.

How about Wells Fargo bank - should it be the government's job to catch illegal aliens before they purchase a home here, or Wells Fargo bank's job?

I thought they were having no economic impact?! You really should pick one story and stick with it.

No "positive" economic impact, I meant.

Yes. And WF should be financially punished big time for making loans to non-citizens.

You must be listening to the voices in your head.

The negative economic impact of the illegal invasion is gigantic.

Unlike yourself, I've known that fact for a long time.

Greyhound is transporting people. WF is selling property.

Remember, this thread was posted by an open-borders type for the purpose of stirring up trouble.

This thread is stupid.

The chew on Greyhound wasn't personal, just opening thread topic. It has been suggested by better educated than me, that Congress could declare that babies of illegals, insofar as they are legally not supposed to be here, have no legal standing to claim a 14th Amendment citizenship.

I confess, I am not comfortable with that arguement and would prefer an Amendment, but might make for a nice SCOTUS case if Congress could be so moved.

By the way, EV, is my memory failing or does Bill Lester resonate here?

Bill Lester had it exactly right, that's for sure. A great man.

Unfortunately, he was one more victim of the Bush open borders political operation.

A real shame. He'd have been a fine Congressman.

we can find the one cow in millions that have mad cow disease, but can't find 10 million illegal immigrants.

Perhaps the dept of Ag should be in charge on the INS.

Not the last time I used them. Might have changed in the past two years.

Walk up, buy your ticket and get on the bus.

Is this all there is to the story?
The same would apply to American Airlines and Delta Air Lines. There would be the minor inconvenience of arriving at the international arrival section of the airport – but that is no big deal.

Maybe Concord Tailways is odd in this regard ...

Why do I have to show a photo I.D. to ride the bus?

Concord Trailways requires a photo I.D. for all passengers traveling with an adult ticket. We do not require identification for children under the age of 12 traveling with a parent or guardian, however, if they are traveling alone, they will need a school I.D., passport, or copy of their birth certificate. Children under the age of 17 with no photo I.D. must be accompanied by an adult with a photo I.D. upon purchasing a ticket. These are security measures that we take in the event that there is an emergency and allows us to assist officials in identifying who traveled on a particular day. We do not generate passenger lists for each bus, therefore, we require you to show your I.D. each time you travel. This information is not stored in our system. We print your name on the ticket to ensure that you are the person traveling (see Ticketing Information). If you have questions on acceptable forms of I.D. or special circumstances, please contact the Information Center directly at 1-800-639-3317. Our General Information section of the website also contains this information.

Dear Valued Greyhound Customer:

Making bus travel even safer is a responsibility we take seriously. We have made some changes in our security programs that began after the terrorist attacks in September. Here are some highlights of our safety enhancements: ...

I'm not saying to "mistreat" anyone, I'm saying there is an agenda.

But don't take my word for it, just read their own propaganda from their own lobbies.

If you don't think La Raza, LULAC, Mecha, the Mexican Government don't have conquest plans, then tell me why they state that as their goal?

If 8 USC 1324 makes it a crime for Wells Fargo:

"Any person who . . . encourages or induces an alien to . . . reside . . . knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is . . . in violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both."

Then more so for Greyhound Bus Lines, Inc.

". . . knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, transports, or moves or attempts to transport or move such alien within the United States by means of transportation or otherwise . . ." and even allows for Seizure and forfeiture: "Any conveyance, including any vessel, vehicle, or aircraft, that has been or is being used in the commission of a violation of subsection (a) of this section, the gross proceeds of such violation, and any property traceable to such conveyance or proceeds, shall be seized and subject to forfeiture."

As pointed out, maybe even the gas station owners where those buses refueled in furtherance of this Vast Right Wing Conspiracy to unify the entire North American Continent - I report; you decide.
