A social media spat over immigrants in Texas intensified after influencer and self-proclaimed whistleblower Marc Palasciano accused Indians of harassing him with spam calls and warned he might seek federal action against them.Palasciano wrote in a post onThe warning comes after he shared a video claiming he had received a large number of harassing phone calls in recent days. In the video, he claims the calls began shortly after he began talking about an “Indian takeover” in Frisco, Texas, and criticizing the use of H-1B visas.He posted a video showing his call logs: “Let me show you how some Indians are breaking the law right now. Look at my spam calls. This is from Tuesday. This is from yesterday. Yesterday I got 30 spam calls. This is from today, from 8:40 to 9:48 am. This is no coincidence, it was right before I started exposing H1B and Indians after the takeover in Frisco. What they were doing was actually illegal for people to register spam calls to, and most importantly, it was targeted harassment.”He added that he planned to file a complaint with regulators.“There’s a process where you can file a complaint with the FCC and they’ll look into it for you and probably they’ll find the person who did this to you. So, I’m going to file one of those and we’ll see what happens,” he said.Palasciano also said the calls didn’t affect him personally because of the call screening feature: “But it just goes to show that Indians are willing to violate U.S. laws if you speak out against their practices with H1B visas and the Indian takeover in Frisco. It is not illegal to use the First Amendment to speak out. What they did was illegal. “The controversy stems from controversy surrounding a recent meeting of the Frisco City Council. Palasciano earlier posted a photo of Boy Scouts attending a council meeting and claimed it showed an “Indian takeover.”Many social media users pointed out that the Scouts’ attendance at the meeting is part of a long-standing local tradition.At the beginning of Frisco’s council meetings, local Boy Scouts or Cub Scouts are often invited to administer the Pledge of Allegiance. These youth groups are part of the Boy Scouts of America and regularly participate in civic ceremonies throughout Texas.
