Mercedes Exec Arrested In AL For Immigration Violation

Post by Schneibster » Fri Nov 25, 2011 7:35 pm

"You vill show me your papers, auslander scum."

A Mercedes executive driving a rental car in Alabama fell afoul of the new racist immigration law in the state last week, and was arrested after being pulled over by police and asked for his papers and being unable to produce them.

The charges were dropped when the proper papers were produced in court. Wonder if they do that for brown people? Ignorance of the law being no excuse and all like that.

The city received an inquiry from the Governor's office. Bet he calls about all the brown people who get hassled by the fascist pigs, too.

Mercedes nearly didn't build a factory in Alabama in 1993 as a result of seeing Confederate flags all over the place. I bet they love this bullshit. Their lease is up shortly, too, and a Missouri paper urges them to move, saying, "We are the show-me state, not the show-me-your-papers state."

Read all about it.

Oops.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

I really enjoyed the part about the Republican Teagagger Party Libertardian Governor who signed the legislation with much fanfare calling the city about it.

Well, I'd like to know if Benz IS going to relocate the factory, citing unfriendly working conditions in that state.

I think they would become more popular if they did.

Carry your visa and your passport with you and you won't have a problem if you're visiting from somewhere else. You're required to do so by federal law anyway.

Virtually every other nation on earth requires foreigners to carry visas and passports with them, and many is the American who has been arrested in some pest-hole of socialism for failing to have the proper papers.

If you want to visit the US, obey the law.

I passed a SdKf just yesterday filled with Sturmtruppen that had sneaked in from Danzig. I'm glad the police are rounding them up.

Hey, I have to show my driver's license if I get stopped. Why shouldn't a visitor to our country have to abide by the existing federal and state laws requiring them to produce the appropriate documents showing that they have permission to be here if and when they get stopped? I'm quite sure the German police ask for exactly the same thing when a Brit or an American is stopped in Munich. The fact is that the US has historically had the laxest rules and enforcement of visitor's and immigration documents of almost any nation on earth for many decades, which is why we have so many illegal aliens running around. Now we're tightening up the rules to the standards use by everyone else, and all you can do is bitch about it.

Nobody mentioned WHY the guy got stopped either. My rule is "If you don't want the police to be interested in what you are doing, don't do things that interest the police." I haven't been stopped in decades by following that advice.

Because that law does little to contain illegal immigrants, and a lot to let uniformed tyrants make pests of themselves, or worse.

and don't tell me the German Gentleman was guilty of driving while brown. The odds of him being an actual illegal were slight at best.

I don't recall the actual numbers, but we do get a lot of Canadian illegals here too.

Very few Aussie illegals, I'm sure. We are all law-abiding, decent, hard-working folk, who never drink to excess, or get into brawls...

A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Unless, of course, it turns out he was brown. You're assuming he's not.

Not only that, but the two really amusing parts are, gee, how did the Governor find out (obviously Mercedes called him after having to bail out their exec, who was no doubt mad as a wet hen), and wow, what a great Governor after they move tens of thousands of jobs out of state over his jackbooted thug law. And you completely missed them.
