This is so much crappola.
If ICE agents showed up in any of a number of towns around the Big Lake Okeechobee, the majority of residents are illegal.
Pahokee, LaBelle, South Bay, etc etc are big citrus, big cattle and big sugar and all have majority illegal as workers.

We honestly are way hotter than you natives.

Not to mention more objective and more modest.

I can honestly say as man candy the only thing about me is not my stellar IQ is my extreme modesty. My biggest fault is I think too little of myself.
