Cracking down
A nationwide campaign this year against business operators who employ undocumented immigrants has led to a number of targeted raids, including ones in:
Houston, where seven managers of IFCO Systems North America Inc., a palletmaker, are charged with conspiracy to harbor illegal aliens. Agents raid 40 plants nationwide.
El Paso, where Soto Rock Hauling owners are charged with harboring 26 undocumented immigrants.
Cincinnati, where four supervisors from Fischer Homes, a residential construction firm, are indicted and 76 immigrant workers are detained.
Fairfield, Ohio, where agents arrested Bee's Buffet owner in the importation of undocumented workers from Asia and housing them in his basement.
New York state, where ICE raids leave a shortage of workers to pick strawberries at Coulter Farms.
Jackson, Miss., where agents investigating the Country Club of Jackson find 18 undocumented workers.
Stillmore, Ga., where a chicken processing plant is raided and 120 immigrants suspected of being illegal are detained.

Do you think the illegals are getting the point yet? I hope the laughing disrespectful illegals especially are having some sleepless nights. Maybe now they see we aren't so stupid, and can't be stopped by false accusations of racism or propaganda about their fine family values. We are not willing to sacrifice our own families and country for these entitled feeling people.

It's good to see that they're taking the enforcement angle seriously, here. They had some company where EVERY SINGLE ONE of their workers was illegal...the people that ran the company are on their way to the Big House for 10 years each...asset forfeiture, the whole show...

Good, maybe this will persuade immigrants to go home and stop exploiting our country. They say these are the jobs that nobody else wants. Bullshit! Who worked those jobs before we had this problem? If the companies weren't so cheap and trying to cut corners for their own greed, we wouldn't have this problem. Right on with the crackdowns.

Funny how the most incoherent ones are calling you a moron. Why? Because you posted a TRUE article instead of vehement lies and insults, like they do.
Thank you and it's about damn time.

They also have something called 'Operation Bad Guy' where they are stepping up deportation of those convicted of crimes where ICE might not previously have taken jurisdiction. I am all in favor of it!
