One worker caught in Monday's sweep at the Howard Industries transformer plant said fellow workers applauded as immigrants were taken into custody.

America giveth, America taketh away. It was good while it lasted, Jose.

Nearly 600 detained in the largest workplace raid, Is immigration finally doing it's job ?

There are 400 -500 thousand illegal aliens just in the city of Houston alone. ICE has it's work cut out for them.

ICE can only do what the elected politicians let them do. Laws are no good if they are passed to pacify the public with no intention of ever being enforced. That has been the case too long, but the public is weary of 20+ years of lies and promises.

When 12-15% of my city's population is made up of illegal aliens...somebody clearly is not doing their job.

Why all the fear of being a minority?

oh i'm just thinking ahead to when the aclu will come to his defense.

Who cares? People don't get jobs based on ethnicity. People don't get housing based on skin color. The list goes on and on, it changes absolutely nothing.

Você fala português? Sounds like you may need to get by, I hear it's similar to Español.

Some of them have already been let go for humanitarian reasons - read, they have children. Wouldn't you have kids too if it allowed you to break the law and be excused for it? Why didn't I think of that?

Well, good for the system and for the laws. Lets see the actual impact it makes on the economy... ermmm... nada.

They are called "anchor babies" for a reason. BTW...even though illegal aliens are 12 - 15% of the Houston population...they account for 2/3 of the births in the public hospitals.

Go ahead and violate US Citizens' rights.

wrong. ever heard of affirmative action?

The term affirmative action describes policies aimed at a historically socio-politically non-dominant group (typically, minority men or women of all racial groups) intended to promote its access to education or employment

care to try again?

People don't get housing based on skin color. The list goes on and on, it changes absolutely nothing.

keep trying.........yes they do.

where did you get the idea that i speak that? assume much?

It's definitely happening every where.. There were two raids in Delaware last week and they shut one Burger King store down completely for about 4 days after finding over 80% of their work force to be illegal /undocumented.

I do not condone illegals, my husband was one, but I still think that is is wrong. But what makes me upset is the assumption that only Mexican people are illegal. There may be a white person next to you on the bus and they are an illegal from Russia, but we don't take a second look because they look like us.
