Dallas Judge states unconstitutional to ban renting to illegals - Come on in and rest a while in Dallas
We can all agree that ILLEGAL immigration is one of the leading factors in bankrupting states, hospitals and increases in crime overall especially in the border states.

Well, it seems as though this Federal Judge in Dallas wants to tie the state's hands even more to allow a greater influx of ILLEGALS into the state.

Here's the story:

[link to www.nbcdfw.com]

A federal judge has ruled that a Farmers Branch ordinance banning illegal immigrants from renting apartments is unconstitutional.

U.S. District Judge Jane J. Boyle of Dallas ruled Wednesday that the ordinance was an attempt to enforce U.S. immigration laws, something only the federal government can do.

"Ordinance 2952 is a regulation of immigration and is preempted by the Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution because the authority to regulate immigration is exclusively a federal power," she wrote.

The ordinance established a licensing system for renters in Farmers Branch. Renters would be required to pay a $5 fee and obtain a residential occupancy license issued by the city's building inspector. Under the system, the building inspector would verify a renter's immigration status with federal officials if the renter did not declare him or herself a citizen or national of the United States. The city would revoke the licenses of people the federal government said were in the country illegally.

Farmers Branch took the wrong approach

Oklahoma made laws affecting those who hire,transport or house illegals...guess what? It works

I have some apartment complexes and rent several to some people who are obviously illegals. I can't confirm it, but I wouldn't bet against it. I don't give a shit, as long as they pay their rent every month, and they don't fill up the apartment with more people than the contract states they can have according to the number of bedrooms, fuck it. More money for me. Oh, and no loud fiestas, either, or they're out.

Have you visited Dallas recently?

Looks like nasty portions of Mexico in many areas.

Properties are falling to ruin. Old and broken down cars dominate the streetscapes in many areas.

Grocery stores are exclusively "Mexican".

Malls are are dominated by Mexican's perusing the merchandisers to piped in Joni Mtchell, Cat Stevens, Ohio Players, etc....surreal.

Entire elementary schools are exclusively mexican children...and overrun at that.

No, I haven't been to Dallas recently. I did move from Phoenix though about 3 years ago. There is a whole town called "Guadalupe" where all the street signs are in Spanish and you don't dare drive through it at night as it is infamous for drive bys.

We used to live in pretty nice area in the southeast part of the valley; but, even then you HAVE to know Spanish in order to go to any store and get service. You literally looked for gated communities or communities with pretty strict HOAs that prohibited properties falling into disrepair.

If you look at any of the test scores in the border states the kids are barely graduating with a 9th grade education as the standardized tests have had to be "dumbed" down in order for the kids who are ESL (English as a Second Language).
