Turns out that, if you piss off SXSW, they may have you deported.https://twitter.com/felixixix666/status/837386706512986112 …

I'm happy @AustinChronicle is covering's @sxsw ICE threats. However, Roland Swenson's quotes need to be checked:http://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/music/2017-03-02/sxsw-performance-contract-sparks-controversy/ …
You don't "sort of sponsor" someone, @sxsw. You specifically referenced people on visa waivers. They HAVE no sponsor.pic.twitter.com/QYxUQf9FJH
Even when trying to clarify, @sxsw says if you get in a fight, they'll have you deported. smdh.pic.twitter.com/mzXgdlPgGW
And, if you break @sxsw's broad pyrotechnics rule, they might call ICE. Sorry but you might be deported for holding a sparkler.pic.twitter.com/y36xWMuzcE
.@sxsw site doesn't say "we'll call ICE if you murder someone." It says you'll get deported for playing a side gig: http://support.sxsw.com/hc/en-us/articles/206421765-I-am-an-artist-located-outside-of-the-USA-What-do-I-need-to-know-about-showcasing- …
They are not-- it's standard language for co's that sponsor int'l freelancers or workers- and their visas
It's not standard language and you clearly don't even know what VWP is. Please leave my mentions. Thanks and goodbye. @IdeaLighter
You're spreading false interpretations & it's quite sad because @sxsw is a group that supports innovators, not limiting freedom.
FOR THE SECOND TIME: LEAVE ME ALONE. @IdeaLighter
I have literally no idea what you're talking about but I also don't care to know. Please leave me alone. @AnotherKatieK
omg you both need to get a life please find something useful to do like not harassing women of color ok twitter @AnotherKatieK @KaraCalavera
Still: I don't love the tone of the language.
This directly references vwp. What kind of sponsor is needed for someone entering via vwp? @DiegoATLaw @Mrjosezero @austintexasgov @sxsw
(heading out, will discuss more later)
ok so one example is I have seen cases of musicians coming on visitor or vwp status & 1/2
see cautious lawyer adding warning language in 1.4so invitation not seen as representation tht
I think you're answering things I'm not asking. What kind of sponsor is needed on vwp? @DiegoATLaw @Mrjosezero @austintexasgov @sxsw
I'm asking this fundamental question bc premise seems to be one in which sxsw is the sponsor. @DiegoATLaw @Mrjosezero @austintexasgov @sxsw
OK just re-read article below & watched video in detail http://www.theroot.com/sxsw-organizer-talks-in-circles-just-to-say-yes-if-you-1792925175?utm_source=theroot_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow … ...
