Anger, cheers for immigration raids - U.S. Security - MSNBC.com

Federal officials said on Wednesday there had been nearly 1,300 arrests of illegal immigrants as agents swept through Swift & Co. plants in six states. No names were released although they included individuals from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Peru, Laos, Sudan and Ethiopia.

....

At the Swift plant in Grand Island, Neb., as many as 250 workers from a shift of more than 600 were detained, local union spokesman Mike Mary told The Washington Post.

In Colorado, Garcia worried about the schoolchildren whose parents were arrested at the Swift plant in Greeley. “Who is going to pick them up?” he asked. (pack your bags we're goin on a guilt trip)

The raids followed a 10-month investigation into illegal immigrants suspected of buying or stealing other people’s identities to secure U.S. jobs. The scheme may have had hundreds of victims, officials said.

Immigration officials last month informed Swift that it would remove unauthorized workers on Dec. 4, but Swift asked a federal judge to prevent agents from conducting the raid, arguing it would cause “substantial and irreparable injury” to its business.

The company had estimated a raid would remove up to 40 percent of its 13,000 workers. Greeley-based Swift describes itself as the world’s second-largest meat processor with sales of about $9 billion.

Talk about F-ing retarded. Ok, so they steal identities of legitimate citizens in order to remain here illegally and get a job. Not only are they stealing identities, which is a felony if i am not mistaken, but they are here illegally AND they kids are going to schools on someone elses tax dollar. Then they expect to stay here, like they have a RIGHT to stay here and that sending them back is wrong. Give me a break. The nerve of these people.

Then this business estimates 40% of their workforce would be gone and protests the raids... if they estimate that much of their workforce is illegal, that would imply that they knowingly hire illegals. Not only do I not give a shit their business will be hurt badly, they should be out of business. Their competitors can take up the slack and the other legitimate 60% of their employees can work for the competitors. The remaining assets should be used in a way that gives the legit workers a severance package that would allow them to get by until they get a new job.

Yes, I saw one woman on the news. "What are they going to do with my mother," she cried. If their is justice deport her! Like I would't be in serious shit if I stole your identity!

Yeah this is ridiculous, that business needs to be fined out the ass. They also need to all be shipped back via fed ex overnight or whatever we have to do to get them back to mexico ASAP...but before that we need to get their fingerprints so if they're ever picked up again we can put them to work to pay off their debt to society. Perhaps building roads or picking up trash on their way back to mexico.

The thing i just love is the people who try to justify them staying here like it is right for them to stay here... and that it is some cruel thing to send them back. They are well aware that what they are doing comes with risks. If i am busted selling 8balls I can't cry that the money is going to be used to send my kids to college and then it is suddenly ok. Illegal is illegal, but i guess some do not see it that way.

They never think of the 1300 legal citizens who have had their credit and other things raped in the mean time.
