ICE Gives Swift Kick in the Ass
There's been much more activity from our immigration enforcers but it's still anemic as hell. Ehhh, rather some raids than none. And I believe this can have a much larger and domino effect on the problem. Peter gets arrested and booted back to whatever country. He tells others, "Hey, man. There ain't no jobs in X,Y, or Z anymore. They're cracking down." So, those that are on the "fence" might decide not to come.
GREELEY, Colo. -- Federal agents raided meat processing plants in six states Tuesday and arrested an unknown number of suspected illegal immigrants in an identity theft investigation.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said the workers were being arrested on administrative immigration violations and in some cases, existing criminal arrest warrants stemming from a nearly yearlong investigation.
Six Swift processing facilities were raided Tuesday, in Greeley, Colo.; Grand Island, Neb.; Cactus, Texas; Hyrum, Utah; Marshalltown, Iowa; and Worthington, Minn.
Something else I needed to mention, what about the employers? How many employers are going to jail? I'm of the opinion that a few executives in jail would do as much or more than rounding up a few hundred illegals.
