7-11's aren't where they will find a lot of illegals. Go after farms, and food processing plants. 25 years ago I worked at a chicken processing plant (worst job ever and it drove me to get into software engineering). 90% of my coworkers were illegals, and the management knew it. They even made trips down and helped illegals cross. They got caught and fined.....and just kept doing it. I doubt it has changed much.

Disgusting. As much as people supposedly loathe franchises in NYC, they are basically run and owned by people doing honest stuff and providing services and jobs even if it's on the lower end of the spectrum. People saving/earning enough to buy a franchise are not the people we want to deport, at all. Sex traffickers and gang members doing that are the ones that should be a target, and not the sex workers themselves, but the people that exploit them.

Of course. They promised jobs for all the unemployed manufacturing workers in the rust belt and they are going get these jobs! They might have to relocate from the Midwest to The Bronx but they’ll have plenty of jobs available.

How are these "hate" terms? Fear? Um, since we don't know who's sneaking thru our border, coming here on visas or as refugees and what their intent is that's not a reason to fear?

Just what are these jobs that Americans or legal immigrants don't want? The only things broken about our immigration system is the enforcement of them and our porous border.

Utter nonsense! We have no problem with legal immigrants in reasonable numbers that express that they want to assimilate into American culture. The topic is about ICE and that has nothing to do with legal immigrants but illegal aliens.

Illegal aliens aren't plain ole "immigrants". Be careful not to blur those two very distinct groups.

Legal immigrants are being targeted in these raids? Are you joking? Jesus would approve of going after illegal alien criminals.

Yeah, can see a bunch of opiate addicted, on disability payments, or whatever inhabitants of such areas flocking to take minimum wage jobs.... Convenience store employers will be beating applicants back with sticks.

Absolutely. The fines need to be substantial, at least $100k per illegal, in addition to mandatory jail time for all employees involved in their employment, HR, direct managers as well as CEO, DM etc.

You mean the same way the extreme left linguists made up new terms for illegal aliens like undocumented immigrants, just plain ole immigrants, and even undocumented citizens and New Americans?

EXACTLY! What is never discussed about this issue much is the serious malady of acedia that home-grown uneducated young americans have. Really, you think you're BETTER than working in a convenience store to work your way up and out of poverty? Okay Well sorry you can't afford those Doritos with the codes to win a new X-Box. Who bred our current group of homegrown cretins? Oh yeah, other cretins. Sorry, i'd rather my tax paying money go to the elderly, the infirmed, and people who need it and not some jack ass junky playing video games online (run into you losers all the time playing Friday the 13th!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). Rant / over

Evolve or die

I guess you just overlooked that whole identity theft thing. And there are struggling Americans who'd be happy to take a paycheck for selling dry hotdogs.
