ICE arrests hundreds at South Carolina chicken plant
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested about 300 suspected illegal immigrants at a raid at the Columbia Farms poultry processing plant in Greenville, S.C.

“Our office is charged with enforcing the immigration laws against aliens who illegally enter our country, and those who illegally harbor and employ them,” said W. Walter Wilkins, the U.S. Attorney for the District of South Carolina. “The execution of this search warrant today marks an important phase of this ongoing investigation into the hiring practices of this employer. Aggressive enforcement and investigative actions are vital to the integrity of our immigration system.”

Employers should pay by going to jail. Hopefully they won’t turn these people loose to come back again like they did the Swift people. Those illegals were back in 3 weeks.

This following item that I found in World Net Daily highlights the importance of securing our sovereign borders and stopping the invasion of Illegal Aliens, real soon. Refuse to rely on our political cucarachas and bureaucrats to help, they’ll only hinder us. “Red tape releases criminal immigrants to streets” link - #http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=77883 “Convicted deportees freed in U.S. because home countries won’t take them”
[“A federal report estimates 139,000 foreign nationals - 18,000 of them convicted criminals - who have been ordered deported remain in the U.S. because their home nations won’t take them back.
The estimate from #Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials was provided to Rep. Charlie Dent, R-Pa., who told the Houston Chronicle many of the convicted criminals, without legal means to be held, have been put back on America’s streets.”]
Isn’t that just swell, those bureaucrats are certainly helping. What a quaint coincidence, they’re putting m’ back on the streets just in time to help with Barackula‘s vote count. Tally ho!!! Quote: [“Hopefully they won’t turn these people loose to come back again like they did the Swift people.”]
Not at all George, our political critters n’ bureaucrats have it all sorted out and under control. DemocRatz have been control of both houses of congress for two years and there’s still not one sign of improvement from the mess left by the Republican’tz.
Remember that while all of our USA remains threatened by foreign and domestic enemies Ramos and Compean are still rotting away in prison and lying Johnny Sutton continues to gloat. Hang on to whatever you consider precious, there’s a rough ride up ahead.

More on the “Red tape releases criminal immigrants to streets:” They’re Illegal Alien thugs, not criminal immigrants. “Jim Colosimo,” “Sam Carolla,” “Louis Buchalter,” “Nicolo Licata,” “Joe Profaci,” “Vito Genovese,” “Salvatore Lucania,” “Alphonse Capone,” “Gaetano Lucchese,” they were “criminal immigrants.” link - http://www.onewal.com/maf-chr1.html “Red tape releases criminal immigrants to streets:” [“For example, Soponh Prashasouk, a refugee from Laos who was convicted of a Texas murder in 1995 was ordered deported in 1999, reports the Chronicle. After serving 10 years in prison, he was released to immigration officials. But after six months of waiting for Laos to reach a repatriation agreement, Prashasouk successfully sued to be released from immigration detention. He now lives in Dallas, a free man.
Mohammed Malekzadeh, a native of Iran, was convicted of drugging a teenage employee of his business and molesting her 16 years ago. He was later released from prison, and, unable to be deported to Iran, he took up residence in Houston.
“I just can’t believe it,” his ex-wife Rebecca Harrison told the Chronicle after she was surprised by Malekzadeh suing for visitation rights with their children. “We always assumed he would be deported when he finished his sentence. Everyone did. It’s scary.”
Andy Kahan, director of the Houston Mayor’s Crime Victims Office, has offered to help Harrison keep the illegal immigrant sex offender away from her family.
“Nobody can do anything to him, and he knows that,” Kahan told the Chronicle. “He knows he’s not going back, no matter what he does. He got the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card.” Story continues - http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=77883
