I have a friend who
is president of his homeowner's association down in Washington. They are
having a terrible problem with trash on the side of the road that is around his
association's homes. The reason according to Wallace (my friend) is, there is
being built just next to them, six new homes.....big ones! Wallace said the
trash is coming from the Mexican work crews working at the construction sites.
(McDonald Bags, Burger King trash, etc). He has pleaded with the site
supervisors and the general contractor to no avail, called the City,County, the
Police and got no help. So..................guess what some people in his
community did?
They organized
about twenty folks, named themselves The "Inner Neighborhood Services" to go out
at lunch time and "police" the trash themselves. It is what they did while
picking up the trash that is hilarious.
They got some navy
blue baseball caps and had the initials "INS" in gold put on the caps. It
doesn't take a rocket scientist, however, to understand what they hoped people
would think it means.
Well the day after
their first pick up detail, with them wearing their caps and some carrying
cameras; 46 out of 68, of the 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 understand is madder than hell, but can't say anything publicly,
because he could be busted for hiring "illegal aliens". Wallace and his bunch
can't be accused of impersonating INS folks, because they have it on their home
owner association records the vote to form the new committee within their
association, plus they informed the INS about what they were doing in advance,
and the INS said basically according to Wallace.............."have at
it"!
