The Dallas Solution
I have a friend who is president of his
homeowners association in the Dallas , Texas
suburbs. They were having a terrible problem
with litter near some of his association's
homes. The reason according to my friend is
that six very large, luxurious new houses are
being built right next to their community.
The trash was coming from the Mexican laborers
working at the construction sites and included
bags from McDonald's, Burger King and 7-11, plus
coffee cups, napkins, cigarette butts, coke
cans, empty bottles, etc. He went to see the
site supervisor and even the general contractor,
politely urging them to get their workers not to
litter the neighborhood, to no avail. He called
the city, county, and police and got no help
there either.
So here's what his community did. They
organized about twenty folks, named themselves
The "Inner Neighborhood Services" group, and
arranged to go out at lunch time and "police"
the trash themselves. It is what they did while
picking up the trash that is so hilarious.
They bought navy blue baseball caps and had the
initials "INS" embroidered in gold on the caps.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand
what they hoped people might mistakenly think
the letters really stand for..
After the Inner Neighborhood Services group's
first lunch time pickup detail, with all of them
wearing their caps and some carrying cameras, 46
out of the total of 68 construction workers did
not show up for work the next morning -- and
haven't come back yet.
It has been ten days now.
The General Contractor, I'm told, is madder than
hell, but can't say anything publicly because he
could be busted for hiring illegal aliens. My
friend and his bunch can't be accused of
impersonating federal personnel, because they
have the official name of the group recorded in
their homeowner association minutes along with a
notation about the vote to approve formation of
the new subcommittee -- and besides, they
informed the INS in advance of their plans, and
according to my friend, the INS said basically,
"Have at it!"
SO, FOLKS, I THINK YOU COULD SAY THAT TEXAS
INGENUITY TRIUMPHS AGAIN!
Reminder: Don't forget to pay your taxes.......
12 million illegal aliens are depending on you.
