I certainly hope the contractor will be brought up on charges.

This is unbelievable.

"Homeland Security" my a** !!!!

Channel 9 WFTV reported they were able to get work using fake Social Security I.D.'s.

[Rakkasan1]

we probably have illegals working for Homeland Security.

Yet Another Border Ping

[MisterRepublican]

And a new batch (if not the ones they detained today) will be back to work by next week. Just doing all those construction jobs Americans won't do. (sarcasm)

"What we look for is suspected criminal aliens, someone who's been deported already from our country and snuck back in across our borders, or committed crimes in our country while they're here illegally. That's our priority," said Garrand.

IOW, "most of these criminal invaders will be released with our best wishes."

"We asked the contractor to call all the employees down to the work trailer. From there we started the identification process, interview process," explained Mark Garrand, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Resident Agent in Charge.

You're going about this backwards, Mark.

If you want your sting to have a real effect, lock up the contractor.

Obviously the contractor did not run these supposed legal citizens through the SAVE Program.

They were there to do all those jobs Americans won't do, right?

[Brad’s Gramma]

They have not found any terrorist ties, but that's a concern with construction of a potential target.

"They have access to the full building. Objects can be placed in any location here for future use," explained Garrand.

Think Beslan.

Most are believed to be from Mexico......

And the others? Someone please answer that???

[Doe Eyes]

Florida, lets hope they aren't Cubans, or there will be heck to pay.

"They were nailing themselves inside a box..."

Cool. Just apply postage to, say, Brazil.

All that can be done is to trace fake documents. I would offer free citizenship if they testify against the forgers, the contractor, and anyone else involved.

Repeat this at every construction site in Florida and the state's growth rate will be cut in half. Still, I want to thank the illegals working for the Army Corps of Engineers for putting on my blue roof after the hurricane damage.

[Gritty]

A lot of people scream because we are importing Chinese stuff and sending dollars to China.

Hiring an illegal alien is no different. But instead of "stuff", we get labor. Nevertheless, a large portion of his/her salary gets shipped back home.

No wonder our balance-of-payments is so horrendous!

[Stolen_Honor]

I am almost positive that there are illegal aliens now working on Palmetto and East Jefferson's new construction. They take lunch breaks in the grass and block access to clientele visiting local offices on East Jefferson and Palmetto. They don't have any money and don't speak English.
