Aaron Rubashkin, outside his Brooklyn butcher shop on June 3, 2008, says his Agriprocessors firm "don't do no injustice to nobody, not to a cat."NEW YORK (JTA)—Aaron Rubashkin, the owner of the embattled kosher slaughterhouse Agriprocessors, denies he has engaged in unethical labor practices and blames the failure of U.S. immigration policy for his mostly illegal workforce.

In the first substantive comments by an Agriprocessors representative since the government rounded up more than a third of its employees on immigration charges in a May 12 raid of its Iowa plant, Rubashkin flatly denied allegations of worker mistreatment and plant mismanagement.

“Everything is a lie,â€

How bout the Human Smuggling old man ? I find you very guilty just by your actions alone. Fired your boy cause he messed up the "Deal" really bad . 30 rabbi's seemed to have "Looked" the other way . To have these types of Charges put to you by the Bush Admin says you really screwed it up . Bush admin is very easy on business . How bout the great latino freind ? Yeah the one who rented them house's ,befriended them . The Wolf in sheep clothing so to speak .He will be there with you right ? Seeing how you profitted greatly on his Side deals he should sit at your side at trial .
Every time i time of this story i can't help but rant . This is 3th world . Yet it's in our backyards

Here, let me summarize that article so no one else is burdened with the typical list of denials and failures to own up to one's misdeeds.

<blah, blah>

"We didn't do anything wrong"

<blah, blah>

"We didn't know there were any problems"

"We treat our employees well"

<blah, blah>

"We aren't being treated fairly"

<blah, blah>

:
"It's stereotyping or bigotry" (borrowing on the quote from the woman shopper in the story)

[etc]

Sorry, no takers here pal. If you can't be in business in a lawful manner, you shouldn't be in business at all. End of story.
