Sounds like robbers and murderers from Mexico invading American homes and killing American citizens.

Who's the Gestapo now?

Something to think about...

Wow ...that was right from the commie blogs...the WORKERS with a big Red Star ...What a bunch of Hog wash

But wait,... were they 'immigrants' or illegal aliens?
If the latter, the legal processes and inherent rights involved are quite different. Sounds like Ms. Cottin (the author of the article) has a lot of emotion invested in reporting this story, but doesn't seem to like to work with things called cold, hard, facts..

All I can say is..........GO ICE!!!!

Thank you for posting this. ICE is doing a far better job than I thought. We need much more of this kind of action. I am certain the reference to "immigrants" really means illegals. I have no fear of ICE breaking down my door.

Even though there is a lot to be desired, I still think it is important to regularly voice support for the folks at ICE doing the hand's on enforcement. Most of the problems associated with "under-enforcement" are not the product of the rank and file employees within ICE, but are more a result of bad policy+corrupt or clueless managers/directors.

Let the OBL's protest all they want. They don't seem to get the fact that many more Americans are not buying their tripe rhetoric of racism, relations to KKK, comparing us to the Nazis, etc. and they know it.
They are losing ground and are getting desperate.

We cannot be fooled for one minute. These jokers will not go away quietly, nor will they go away w/o a fight. Trouble is, they picked on the wrong bully!

I'm ready to march in Washington how are you?

AMERICA IS PROUD OF YOU ICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
