Security Guards Were Illegal Immigrants

This story has to fly in the face of anyone trying to show how secure the U.S. is. Sure, these security guards weren't watching a border or guarding an airport, but they were credentialed guards.

The Associated Press reported today, "A task force led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested nearly 50 illegal immigrants in weekend raids of mostly Latino night clubs in Dallas, officials said Sunday."

Included were 26 businesses, so they were planning the raid for a while. But overall, two security companies were implicated which had hired these folks.

The AP said, "Law enforcement teams of local, state and federal officials simultaneously hit the 26 businesses around 11 p.m. Saturday and arrested 49 people. They recovered four pistols."

So what happens next? They face charges of being here in the U.S. illegally, and illegal immigrants cannot possess weapons - so that, too. What about working?! That's not right.

Four of the 49 arrested were from El Salvador, the rest from Mexico.

Dallas officials hopes this "sends a message" to others working with false documents.
