But this woman only came to the attention of federal authorities because local law enforcement officers arrested her for an infraction that would have normally resulted in a slap on the wrist. And the reason that she was arrested was because she was selling tamales.

She was arrested for refusing to leave when asked to. There is another matter Ruben left out. Food vendors in Calif must be licensed.Her food bypassed any health inspections, hygiene and sanitation practices remain unknown.He makes out like well it's just a causal matter, what happens if her food is tainted and people get sick ? She is selling food with no oversight, this is a serious health issue, no matter what her intentions are.

If you don’t arrest and deport her, then she drives out of business the honest food preparation companies that follow the rules.

I’m growing tired of the humanization of illegal activity as if to say that it should be allowed.

In my opinion, this is tantamount to saying that Holmes, despite killing 12 people in a movie theater, is a regular volunteer at the local soup kitchen, fosters blind, albino kittens, and heals sick babies. They’re still criminals!

Also, Walmart paid for their land and the use thereof, all the liability insurance and whatnot.

No overhead for selling out of a truck!

I actually support selling out of trucks, but it has to be allowed for EVERYONE, and the consumer should be made aware that no health or safety checks are done. Buyer beware and all that, maybe make it illegal to sell to minors since they can’t be expected to make reasonable decisions about whether to buy a tamale from the back of a truck.

We are relaxed about food safety here in the U.S, we have it good, but there is a reason you don’t drink the water or anything the water has touched in Mexico.

Ruben Navarette is an open borders shill. He can go buy tamales from Juana in Tijuana. If he breaks any Mexican laws down there the Mexican cops will throw his cholo ass in jail.

“She was arrested for refusing to leave when asked to”

That was her biggest mistake of the day. She should have packed up and left. It all went down hill after that.

Ruben Navarrette Jr is a free borders rube.

How much other government assistance is she receiving or has she and her children received? Have she or her children used public health facilities? Her children are being educated here with free lunches, breakfast, brunch, snacks and banquets. Are they gang members? Have they ever been arrested? How many times? She didn’t build the road to the Walmart.

Maybe we could get her a little training in food handling, and a license and deport few “community activists” instead? I’d be happy to trade green cards to SOME (non-felon, non-dui) illegals in exchange for expelling Marxist scum and the parasites they enable at rate of about 10 to 1.
Relatively speaking, I’m sure we’d show a massive net gain.

Don't they like tamales in Mexico? Let her go sell them to the tourist in Mexico.

Let me give you a clue. The restaurants that DO get oversight get a brief check about once every 3 years. You think that makes a difference? 'Oversight' is a joke.

I say that as someone that had a kitchen health inspection every morning in the USAF, and only saw 2 inspectors, my entire time in the civilian kitchens.

That said, I'm an American that can make and sell tamales, but the markets for that are filled with illegals.

Dollars to doughnuts, it was a 100% cash business, and she was not filing income tax returns, either.

All you need to know is Ruben Navarette. He is for his people and against Americans.

The sodium and polyunsaturated fat content of her tamales were too high to meet Moochelle’s guidelines.

I am pretty good with deporting illegals, that is what is supposed to happen when they are identified.
