Awww. Now it turns out that 21 "workers" at the Smithfield plant in Tar Heel are being deported following the 24 January ICE raid there. And this law enforcement action has other "workers" scared. Actually, the term used is "terrified of more arrests". Isn't that just awful? Don't you feel terrible? If you don't, why you're just a big meanie, that's what you are.
Meanwhile, church officials within the region’s Hispanic community and spokespeople with the United Food & Commercial Workers union said the workers’ families didn’t know where they were and other immigrant workers were terrified of more arrests.
Production at the plant was substantially diminished Thursday as workers stayed away.
“There are hundreds of immigrant families who will have to decide, ‘Do I show up to work (Friday) and risk being arrested by immigration?’” said Eduardo Pena, a spokesman for the union, which became an unofficial hub of information for workers Thursday, he said.
Well...it may be time to bust the union as well. If they're a hub of information for hundreds of illegal aliens, then they're breaking our laws and they need to be stopped. We're never going to get a handle on the illegal alien issue if we allow unions and employers to work together to circumvent American immigration laws. The raids are a good start. But it's time to hold enablers accountable as well.
One excellent place to start would be by disabling the "Human Resources" bureaucracies at plants like Swift and Smithfield. Toss the heads of these departments into jail for a quarter of a century for acts of treason against the USA, because they know full well that they are enabling the invasion of our country. Make examples of them, and it's likely that the rest of the enablers will decide that it's in their best interests to follow our laws.
