Did You Know?

• The border has been extended to a 100 MILE WIDE zone around the entire United States.
• DHS Checkpoints are being set up inland in states across the country.
• DHS agents are being permitted by Amtrak & Greyhound to board trains and buses when they come within 100 miles of the border for the purpose of checking the immigration status of passengers.
• Amtrak & Greyhound DO NOT notify passengers of this risk.

Join us for a prayer service in solidarity with immigrants and a rally to protest Amtrak and Greyhound’s cooperation with DHS!
We will also be leafleting inside and around Penn Station to warn passengers of the risk of immigration searches.

Well Gee Whiz, end "civil rights abuses" by not checking passengers at airports and on ships too, why don't we?

You need passports to leave and return to the US now, no one's screaming about "civil rights abuses" there.

DEAL WITH IT!

I got a better idea. lets end the civil rights abuses of American citizens and deport every illegal alien in the country.

Great idea! I like yours better.

I wonder how long illegal-lover Janet will allow that law to be enacted.
I bet it won't last a week now that it's in the papers.

This is what they are complaining about in Washomgton state, they don't want them checking the buses, its suppose to be a free zone 100 miles from the ocean in If that is not stupid. That would make every coastal town a free zone

being a former greyhound driver, i actually asked a border patrol agent in ABILENE one time what happened if me, as the driver, refused to allow you on the bus. he said the bus would not move at all until a search was done even if it means getting a search warrant
Face it, BP can do a stop and a search anytime and anywhere they want

Ridiculous. I cant believe this crap! IMMIGRANTS have nothing to worry about IF THEY ARE LEGAL. Why do they act like everyone is against immigrants? Do they want to have ANY laws at all?

• Amtrak & Greyhound DO NOT notify passengers of this risk.

This is because most reasonable people already understand the risk! It's only the illegals and those who advocate on their behalf that do not seem to understand that being an illegal invader in this country is a deportable offense. Traveling by bus or train does not absolve you of that risk!

What is it going to take to convince these fools? Another Richard Reid wanna-be shoe bomber?
