Oscar Salas, a former orange picker from Tampa area who works as a construction worker, said he's seen instances where employers threatened to call immigration authorities if workers asked for more money.

Suuuuuuuuure you have, Oscar.

They can swim back from whence they came. I grow my own tomatoes, anyway. And do a better job.

The only thing worse than a shadow band of migrant river rat gypsy invaders, is a shadow band of migrant river rat gypsy invaders who think they should get COLA benefits.Get. Out. Of. My. Yard.

Florida tomatoes? You mean those things at the market that are uniformly red, uniformly round, uniformly tasteless and have the firmness and texture of a base ball and sell for a couple of dollars a pound?

No thanks, I grow my own, we eat what we can and can what we can't.
