Migra raid tears parents from kids

Published Aug 6, 2005 8:57 PM

Undocumented immigrant workers contribute billions in profits to the U.S. capitalist economy. But they face what can only be described as state terror, as this news item shows.

La Migra—the despised immigration police—raided a poultry factory in Arka delphia, Ark., on July 28. The agents arrested 119 workers and dragged them off to face deportation.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raid left no time for the parents of about 30 children to call and make arrangements for their care. Kids as young as 3 months old were left behind after the police siege was over.

“A lot of those families had kids in day care in different places, and they didn’t know why Mommy and Daddy didn’t come to pick them up,” Arkadelphia Mayor Charles Hollingshead told report ers. Even the Clark County sheriff expressed anger at the Migra—albeit merely for bad planning and lack of communication between police agencies.

José Luis Vidal explained that his sister and brother-in-law were deported to Laredo, Mexico, while their children aged 10, 5 and 1 were left after the raid without care. “The children are very sad, especially the baby,” Vidal explained in Spanish. “She cries all the time.”

Every worker in the U.S., of every nationality, will benefit from a strong movement that declares: “No worker is ‘illegal.’ There are no borders in the workers’ struggle.”

Archive this statement - you will see it again as part of the "Totalization Solution."

The kids obviously should be shipped out with their parents. When they are 18 they can return.

We've really got to change that whole birth-citizenship thing. It also needs to be done for pro-life reasons.

Any lawyers out there who can suggest appropriate language?

=======================

The parents of these children denied having any children when they were being arrested by ICE.

You do understand the definition of anchor baby - yes?

They just won't let go of this one will they? The only ones responsible for their children are the illegals that brought them here in the first place. If they had stayed at home or came here without breaking the law they wouldn't have been arrested.

This mouthpiece of socialist totalitarianism deliberately neglected to note that every person who was taken into custody was asked if they had children. Every one of them, without regard for what might become of their charges, replied that, no, they did not have children.

This is just another example of why starting out in this country as lawbreakers only leads to more problems than if the border had been crossed legally, and why the entire idea of turning your own welfare and that of your children over to any government is poorly conceived and disastrous to individual peace and well being.

Sez who? There is nothing in this article to imply these kids are anchor babies. That means the kids are illegal too and have abxsolutely no right to automatically come back in when they're 18. The only way they can legally come back in is to apply and get in line then wait their turn.

Left missing from this story is the fact that they ALL declared they had no kids... As previously posted here on FR.
