ACLU Sues Texas Town for Not Renting to Illegals
Two civil rights groups filed a lawsuit Tuesday challenging a suburb's new law that outlaws renting to illegal immigrants, alleging the ordinance violates federal law and forces landlords to act as immigration officers.
The American Civil Liberties Union and the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund filed the suit on behalf of Farmers Branch residents and landlords.
The law, along with a measure that made English the official language of the city, was passed in November and is scheduled to go into effect Jan. 12.

They should take some lessons from St. Paul if they don't want minorities renting there.
since when are illegals entitled to any protection afforded our citizens when they arent even citizens?
here is what i say, they should be arrested on federal charges of crossing the border illegally.
