It is OK for illegal Mexicans to sell tamales out of an ice chest on the sidewalk, but if I did that I would be arrested. If anybody go sick from a bad tamal I would be sued to kingdom come.
I got tired of these salmonella peddlers coming into my neighborhood with their half ass filthy pushcarts, wringing bells or honking horns and calling out their crap in Spanish.
I called the police and got the "their just trying to make an honest living" crap. I asked the officer how operating an unlicensed and unregulated business was honest or legal, but it was just to much work for them to roust a poor little amigo. Then I called the health department and got the same crap from them. So I asked if I should advise my previous employer that the county health department has ruled the he no longer need so be licensed or submit to health department inspections at his eight county locations, the Health inspector said "Oh no, he can't do that. I asked why, because he's an Anglo and legal?
The authorities let the illegals get away with things that citizens would be heavily fined or jailed for, especially here in CaliAztlan!
