A big Nebraska meat packer lost lots of workers after an ICE raid. Guess what happened next.

The local library and community college closed early on Tuesday.

The library was closed because of the raid at Glenn Valley Foods? Were the LIBRARIAN and other library workers ILLEGALS?

Construction sites and other workplaces have been desolate. South Omaha's business district, known as a vibrant Hispanic and immigrant enclave, shut down immediately after the raid.

Why in the middle of America do you have a Hispanic speaking community? How many of those people are ILLEGAL??

As of Friday, some had reopened.

Check the status of those businesses. Are they licensed?

You don't do for one, what you can't or won't do for all. How do you know those illegals in red states vote red? You have to be firm, fair and consistent in applying the law. Overlooking illegals, and making special arrangements for those in red states, even those who have been here for years doesn't cut it for me, nor is it right or fair. It's nothing more than what has been happening in this country for decades, which is why we are where we are today. All of them need to go. Not just the ones in blue states. If those illegals living in red states came here for a better life, and have been here for years, but didn't bother to take the steps necessary, then they need to go. Part of coming here for a better life means becoming citizens. There is no excuse.

My grandparents came here legally from Holland in 1913 with their three sons, one of which was my father. He was 8 years old at the time. My grandfather petitioned the government right after the arrived about his intention of becoming a citizen. It took 7 years to complete the process. My grandmother was dead by that time, but the three boys became citizens when my grandfather was naturalized.

"Nope! All illegals must go!"

Yes...completely. No favors, no special treatment. That's what we've been bitching about the RATS doing all these years. All must go. There's no reason to do a half-assed job.

Absolutely!

Just half-flushing a toilet makes no sense and lots of smell...
This country needs a "plunger" to completely clean out all the vile crap...

Meat packers are one evil beneficiary of open borders.

Another villain in all this are farm labor contractors. They rip off everyone from the farmers to the illegal aliens and us taxpayers.

Total scumbags.

"Is my memory correct? Does anyone remember differently?"

All I remember about the meat packing industry was being made to read "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair in high school, and that was in the 60's. Somebody said earlier on this thread that Teddy Roosevelt cleaned up the meat-packing industry. Sinclair's book was published in 1906. Roosevelt was President from 1901-1909, which makes me wonder if the book didn't have some influence in his actions.

"The problem is the snowflake generation doesn’t want to work!"

Hopefully soon, they won't be able to get benefits unless they do work. That work rule to receive welfare benefits has been in place on and off depending on who is in the White House. The work requirement should have been permanent by Congress years ago.

My stupidity in that comment previously. They shouldn't be voting at all, so it doesn't matter if illegals in red states are sent back along with those in blue states. If they're all gone from all the States, the census should get back to normal.

Deporting illegals has an almost immediate effect on wages, pushing them up.

My point is, H1B visas would at least be legal. Whatever end up with has to be legal and enforceable.

Yes,
There are so many people on the bottom of societal ladder, who lost jobs to illegals and would gladly pick up these jobs.
I have seen similar situation in every meat plant around. In Indiana, Nebraska. My friend was replaced by illegals in meat plant.
Illegals send all the money back to Mexico, and never integrate into the society!
Because of some lawn chair liberal will not work these jobs does not mean that Americans are no more wanting to work these jobs!
The illegals are preferred in workplace, not only because they are cheap, but also because they are willing to take an abuse and not complain. US workers have many workplace protection, but they go by wayside with the illegals.

My cousin in Oklahoma has a son that was working for Tyson on their chicken farms. White as white can be. He was endlessly harassed by the Mexicans. He advised his supervisor. Called HR. Nothing was done. It got so bad he had to quit.
