And then what?? Hold their breath until the authorities respond?? Is this city, one of many, which is a sanctuary city?? Lots of questions to ask, no one to answer them.
The landlords WILL NOT get away with throwing people out, legal or illegal. In the next 12 hours or sooner, ACLU will go to a liberal judge and put a restraining order on them ordering them NOT to throw out the illegals. THEN, the illegals will get three years of free rent until the court case is handled and closed.

America is "TOO OPEN".

For our own good.

I swear it will be the death of us yet, as a nation.

See Street of Broken Dreams ... an article which appeared in this past Sunday's Orange County Register (CA) regarding a street in Santa Ana ... otherwise known as "Mexico el norte."

Excerpts:

"A year ago, Angelita Medina Albarran, 47, a garment worker at St. John Knits, took out two loans from Fremont Investment & Loan to cover the entire $600,000 purchase price for 919 W. Camile St., a 1,450-square-foot bungalow. Her five grown children help pay the mortgage – $4,000 a month and scheduled to rise in May.

"La droga," Medina Albarran said. That's Spanish for "drug" – Mexican slang for a crippling debt. The people of West Camile Street, she said, are "endrogados" – hooked on debt.

AND

"Another bank repo is the 1922 Craftsman-style bungalow advertised as a two-bedroom, one-bath at 946 W. Camile St. It still has the original hardwood floors, built-in cabinets and a faux fireplace surrounded by green tiles. But the last owner added four bedrooms and two toilets without permits in an effort to pack in more tenants to help pay the mortgage."

I.E., We don't need no stenkin' laws, city planning, or housing code!

They should have reported the illegals to the authorities without a warning.

Good thought, but it doesn't pan out in reality. I called the INS back in '96 when an apartment building near us was run over with illegals. The woman I spoke with was rude with a capital R. She asked me to provide proof they were illegals. I encouraged them to come and investigate. She told me they had no cause based on my phone call, though I gave her examples having lived it day in and day out.

Raul laying drunk on the curb in front of my home got a little old. So did paying tax dollars to have an ambulance haul him away every now and then.

Minneapolis can sink on its' own. We're gone. The rude incompetents at the INS get no respect from me. our government stinks.

“I want to know how much of this ‘sub-prime credit scare’ and the Dow tanking has to do with bad loans to illegals”

Plenty!

The sub prime loan crises and US stock market fall and dollar weakening, is attributable in part to financial institutions in the USA loaning to illegals it would seem.

Yes, it certainly seems to be the case.

And here I am thinking it was because of my personal boycott mania. ;)

Oh, please! Let us have a quiet day once and for all. All these migrants, here illegally, must go back home or get some legal status. Why they won’t just go and let us leave here peacefully.

Juana Sanchez and Jose Barillas, both illegal immigrants...
Snip...Late Wednesday, Lisa Barba, a community organizer for the immigrant coalition, met with a group of nearly 20 illegal immigrant residents of Lakeview Apartments...
Snip...Marian O’Briant, public information officer for the Blount County Sheriff’s Office, said her agency does not “have a responsibility to report an illegal immigrant to ICE unless we know for sure.”
Now they know for sure! They even have the names of two of them!
(if the reporter, who knows they're here illegally, doesn't report them to enforcement agencies then isn't that aiding and abetting?)
Will you be watching for an arrest article?

Aside...notice the politically correct "illegal immigrant". I guess illegal alien was just too much.

And shouldn’t Lisa Barba be interviewed by ICE as well? Or at least followed? Isn’t that what cops are supposed to do...follow leads.

I'll bet it has EVERYTHING to do with it...

IMO

Companies are reacting to a very real concern than persons injured, robbed or raped by illegals residing on their property or employed by them will be bringing lawsuits against the management, property owners and businesses if they do not actively seek to remove persons they know or reasonably should suspect are illegals.. So much wiggle room there in a civil court. The next person injured by an illegal even if not on their property may well own the complex or company.

Americans have about had it with illegals and civil action against employers and those who provide housing and support was inevitable..

These Property Managers just want to cover their backsides before the civil suit Tsunami begins to hit..

Another bank repo is the 1922 Craftsman-style bungalow . . . But the last owner added four bedrooms and two toilets . . .

I don't know what's worse - defaulting on the loan or defiling the bungalow. So much for assimilation and American values.

And here's the kicker ...

"On Camile Street every variety of la droga is on display: adjustable-rate loans with low teaser payments that quickly escalate; prepayment penalties so large that homeowners cannot refinance; "piggyback loans" so low-income buyers can own a house with no money down. All are described in long, complex documents that many Spanish-speaking buyers cannot read."

So the poor Mex is once again granted special victim status who assumes ZERO responsibility for anything.

I know OC Register requires (free) sign up but if you have a chance or are so inclined, watch the video at the Street of Broken Dreams url. They tour the inside of the 1922 Craftsmen Bungalow as well as other properties on the street.

How in the first place all the illegal people got the place for Rent. I’m a Mexican, I lived in USA legally for 2 years, and the only way I got an apartment was because my employer got it for me, by myself never. I never got credit, even I got a great job, good salary, pay all my bills on time, not even a full driver license, I did not qualify ‘cause I was a TEMPORARY ALIEN.
I married a Canadian, so I am in Canada, again I came legally finally I got my PR, it took me almost 2 years, but even with that It has been hard to get credit, and again I have a great work, good salary, I pay my bills on time, I haven’t ever got a parking ticket.

I think life is easy for foreign people when they are illegal, when you do things right life sucks... For example I have a friend that came to Canada as a tourist, got a Job, he even got a Brand new car, and haven’t live here no more than a YEAR, and I cannot even get credit of $500... The same things happen in USA.

our government stinks.

This should be on a bumper-sticker, on the back of every car in America- it is true in so many ways.

Only when a problem has been defined (as this statement does so eloquently) can remedies be forthcoming.
