Let's all sue Greyhound for transporting illegal aliens!
To: clawrence3
They also drive Chevy pickups. Sue GM, too?
It's not Greyhound's job.

Grayhound is one of the few ways of getting around the country that does not require you to present ID. You wish to change that, why?

Not on topic at all, but everytime I see the word "Greyhound" I think of the old country song, "Thank God and Greyhound You're Gone." Simple me, I guess, but that always strikes me as funny.

Boy, I wonder who Greyhound didn't pay off politically to start to get this kind of heat.

ummmmmmmmm
no....
I don't think you can blame Greyhound for the people that ride it anymore than you can blame GM or Ford or Chrysler if they drive those type of vehicles...
or hey, they eat at McDonald's and Burger King. Let's sue them too!!!

Great, now you want me to carry my birth certificate wherever I go.
What are my grounds for suing? How does this hurt me?
We should also sue restaurants for feeding them.
It's OK to be against illegal immigration but sometimes you need to get a grip on reality.
To: clawrence3
There is an article here on FR from a few months ago that Greyhound was getting concerned because smugglers were loading illegals on their buses and that greyhound was stopping it. One or two might not be noticed, but they were getting them by the dozen.
Greyhound is trying.

One thing that is not brought up...another reason why all the political power in this country is pro-illegal immigration is that it not only provides cheap labor, but provides more consumers.
More illegals = more greyhound passengers.

It seems to me that terrorists could hijack a greyhound bus and wreak almost as much havoc as they did with an airplane. They could blow it up in a major tunnel or drive it into an elementary school.
I wouldn't mind some security measures being required for people when they board a public bus or passenger train. A valid drivers license or passport would seem like a minimum.
It wouldn't bother me at all if this was a huge inconvenience for illegal aliens either.

Arresting mexicans for black tar heroin sales and possession was like shooting fish in a barrel at our local Greyhound station back in the 1990's.

Some illegals might be wearing Nike's while crossing the border, why don't you sue Nike. If you want to sue someone, sue Bush for not doing anything about the borders.

So you want Greyhound to start asking for 'papers' before allowing travel? Misplaced rage IMO.

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.
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.
