Thread: ICE raids plant in Laurel, Mississippi

Here's an actual legal alien giving me the finger, LOL!!!

I hope you reciprocated! Why would a legal alien be angry because illegal invaders were being arrested!

I wonder why?

So, you were there when the raid took place?!

Please post the video and/or pictures!

Any estimates on how many ICE has taken into custody so far?

I was there, thank God!

All I have is a crappy cellphone video and a few photos

How many? Hundreds for sure!!! About time!! I've been emailing them for months. I don't know what finally got them here though. I'm just happy they came!!

Welcome ICEFan.......glad to have you here and thanks for posting pics and giving us the low-down!! It's not often we get to hear from people on the front lines!!!

Can you give us some idea of how this all went down?

What happened when the IAs realized they were being raided? What was the reaction and mood inside?

An eyewitness account would be a refreshing change. Usually all we hear is the IA accounts about ICE rushing in, jamming weapons in peoples' faces, physically assaulting both men and women, screaming profanities, calling them names like "Dogs" and sheer "terror" among IAs who are panicked, screaming, sobbing, and pleading for their lives to be spared

I know that I've always wondered what REALLY happens during one of these things and I'm sure I'm not alone.

I rubbed it in enough before we left this morning. I didn't see any reason to give him the finger back, LOL I was hootin' and a hollerin' Damn, It's about time! Maybe Jones County will quiet being a sanctuary county, I can only hope. Every I.C.E. agent I saw, I reminded them not to forget the poultry plants that also employ hundreds here. Sanderson Farms and Wayne Farms

You think now would be a good time to submit a resume to Howard Industries? Or Maybe I should wait, since the human resources manager is probably tied up at the moment...

Wow, how nice flipping off a guy snapping a picture of him in his NICE NEW TRUCK.

ICEFAN, do you know if there were any "warning signs" prior to the raid? What was the absentee ratio today, if you know? Had you heard anything through the grapevine in your immediate area that your workplace would be raided?
