Re: {Sob}OH: Immigration crackdown tears families apart
They were after another Maria but settled for arresting Velasquez, a pregnant mother of three who came illegally to this farming town from Mexico 15 years ago.
A week later, Velasquez, 33, sat in jail awaiting deportation while her partner, Antonio Ramos, tried to shelter their American-born children -- aged 12, 10 and 8 -- from the grim reality of a U.S. backlash against illegal immigrants.
"The public in this country has no idea who's feeding them," said Secor, 50, as he sorted fruit at his roadside store.
"If you don't let these people come over here you'll get food from the same place we get our oil -- overseas. Do you want them to control our food supply too?"

"I don't know what to do," he said. "If we go, they won't know how to read or write and they'll get jobs just like me, in the dirt, in the mud, in the heat."

See, what the pro-illegal supporters never tell you is that all these illegal aliens coming over always start in slave labor jobs such as picking crops, but ALWAYS move onward and upward to better and better paying jobs (e.g. construction, landscaping, etc). That's when they start taking American's jobs.
The farmers keep losing their slave labor to better paying jobs!! So OF COURSE they keep needing more and more streams of illegals to fill the spots that the previous illegals vacated!!

I don't believe all these stories, I think they are trying to play on peoples feelings and most of the stories are made up.
In the news I keep hearing they have been letting people with children go!! I think they are lieing!

I didn't break into someone else's country and then cheat like hell from there on out to do it.

How about someone- MSM- doing a real human interest story we can relate to , like a woman who has had her life destroyed by one of these hard-working folks who raped her or a family who has had their family torn apart by a drunk illegal driver or a man who worked his butt off for a few decades to own his own business and now is being priced out by cheap illegal labor and has to scramble to make ends meet? I know that will never be on tv.
