Immigration raid cripples Ga. town
By RUSS BYNUM
ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
Race traitor slumlord David Robinson protests roundup of illegals.
STILLMORE, Ga. -- Trailer parks lie abandoned. The poultry plant is scrambling to replace more than half its workforce. Business has dried up at stores where Mexican laborers once lined up to buy food, beer and cigarettes just weeks ago.
This Georgia community of about 1,000 people has become little more than a ghost town since Sept. 1, when federal agents began rounding up illegal immigrants.
The sweep has had the unintended effect of underscoring just how vital the illegal immigrants were to the local economy.
More than 120 illegal immigrants have been loaded onto buses bound for immigration courts in Atlanta, 189 miles away. Hundreds more fled Emanuel County. Residents say many scattered into the woods, camping out for days. They worry some are still hiding without food.
At least one child, born a U.S. citizen, was left behind by his Mexican parents: 2-year-old Victor Perez-Lopez. The toddler's mother, Rosa Lopez, left her son with Julie Rodas when the raids began and fled the state. The boy's father was deported to Mexico.
"When his momma brought this baby here and left him, tears rolled down her face and mine too," Rodas said. "She said, `Julie, will you please take care of my son because I have no money, no way of paying rent?'"
For five years, Rodas has made a living watching the children of workers at the Crider Inc. poultry plant, where the vast majority of employees were Mexican immigrants. She learned Spanish, and considered many immigrants among her closest friends. She threw parties for their children's birthdays and baptisms.
The only child in Rodas' care now, besides her own son, is Victor. Her customers have disappeared.
[highlight]Federal agents also swarmed into a trailer park operated by David Robinson. Illegal immigrants were handcuffed and taken away. Almost none have returned. Robinson bought an American flag and posted it by the pond out front - upside down, in protest.
"These people might not have American rights, but they've damn sure got human rights," Robinson said. "There ain't no reason to treat them like animals."[/highlight]
The raids came during a fall election season in which immigration is a top issue.
Last month, the federal government reported that Georgia had the fastest-growing illegal immigrant population in the country. The number more than doubled from an estimated 220,000 in 2000 to 470,000 last year. This year, state lawmakers passed some of the nation's toughest measures targeting illegal immigrants, and Republican Gov. Sonny Perdue last week vowed a statewide crackdown on document fraud.
Other than the Crider plant, there isn't much in Stillmore. Four small stores, a coin laundry and a Baptist church share downtown with City Hall, the fire department and a post office. "We're poor but proud," Mayor Marilyn Slater said, as if that is the town motto.
The 2000 Census put Stillmore's population at 730, but Slater said uncounted immigrants probably made it more than 1,000. Not anymore, with so many homes abandoned and the streets practically empty.
[highlight]"This reminds me of what I read about Nazi Germany, the Gestapo coming in and yanking people up," Slater said.[/highlight]
Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesman Marc Raimondi would not discuss details of the raids. "We can't lose sight of the fact that these people were here illegally," Raimondi said.
At Sucursal Salina No. 2, a store stocked with Mexican fruit sodas and snacks, cashier Alberto Gonzalez said Wednesday that the owner may shutter the place. By midday, Gonzalez has had only six customers. Normally, he would see 100.
The B&S convenience store, owned by Keith and Regan Slater, the mayor's son and grandson, has lost about 80 percent of its business.
"These people come over here to make a better way of life, not to blow us up," complained Keith Slater, who keeps a portrait of Ronald Reagan on the wall. "I'm a die-hard Republican, but I think we missed the boat with this one."
Since the mid-1990s, Stillmore has grown dependent on the paychecks of Mexican workers who originally came for seasonal farm labor, picking the area's famous Vidalia onions. Many then took year-round jobs at the Crider plant, with a workforce of about 900.
Crider President David Purtle said the agents began inspecting the company's employment records in May. They found 700 suspected illegal immigrants, and supervisors handed out letters over the summer ordering them to prove they came to the U.S. legally or be fired. Only about 100 kept their jobs.
The arrests started at the plant Sept. 1. Over the Labor Day weekend, agents with guns and bulletproof vests converged on workers' homes after getting the addresses from Crider's files.
Antonio Lopez, who came here two years ago from Chiapas, Mexico, and worked at the Crider plant, said agents kicked in his front door. Lopez, 32, and his 15-year-old son were handcuffed and taken by bus to Atlanta with 30 others. Because of the boy, Lopez said, both were allowed to return. In his back pocket, he carries an order to return to Atlanta for a court hearing Feb. 2.
But now, "there's no people here and I don't have any work," he said.
The poultry plant has limped along with half its normal workforce. Crider increased its starting wages by $1 an hour to help recruit new workers.
Stacie Bell, 23, started work canning chicken at Crider a week ago. She said the pay, $7.75 an hour, led her to leave her $5.60-an-hour job as a Wal-Mart cashier in nearby Statesboro. Still, Bell said she felt bad about the raids.
"If they knew eventually that they were going to have to do that, they should have never let them come over here," she said.

Good time to start up an all White town!
I hope all the race traitors in the article are remembered when the time comes.

I love the way they title it "Immigration Raid Cripples Town". How in the FUCK is the town crippled if they admit it's driving the wages back up for whites. The article's whole tone contradicts the headline.
The capitalist needs immigration regardless of status (legal or illegal) or race (white,black,brown,yellow etc) for two main reasons:
1. As consumers
2. As cheap labour
From the day the town got rid of the illegal immigrants the capitalist was forced to raise the wage and thereby the standard of living again.
Its unbeleivable that a person like David Robinson protests with an american flag upside down when he indeed was the capitalist exploiting the immigrants (propably earning well from taking a rent for all these immigrants living on his trailer park).
No! Not capitalists like David Robinson should be pissed off but ordinary Americans who suffer greatly from this illegal immigration. The dumping down of wages and the loss of the workplace are the side-effects of this immigration.
While at the same time the capitalist fights far away foreign wars for natural resources by exploiting the American "human capital" again. Unable to pay for his college and unable to find a decent job paying the needed college fees anymore, the ordinary American enlists into the Army and risks his life just for the chance of a secure financial future life. In contrast: Until very recently (2 years ago) college and university in Germany (even the top colleges) were entirely free of charge.
Indeed if i were the ordinary American i would most propably hang each single day the american flag upside down in front of my house for everybody to see my dissatisfaction at the current status quo of life in my country.
In the age of Globalization,its not the international Left,but the nationalist Right,which is the true anticapitalist force,which will set restrictions on the international Capital and will secure and improve the nation-state as a social shelter.

Note that the company only cooperated AFTER La Migra got involved. Clearly, there was a managment policy to hire illegals.
I think Mr. Purtle lives in Statesboro. Zabasearch lists his address and phone number:

This David Robinson character ought to know that it is un-American to rent to illegals. I can't find any listings for him.

This is outstanding news, in spite of the race-traitor flying his flag upside down to express his hatred for displaced Whites.
It means that White amerikwa is finally beginning to awaken and push back.
Granted it will be a slow, arduous process to drive these illegal muds out for good, but it has to start somewhere, and where else better than GA???
Gotta love Johnny Reb, for he is usually the first to act, instead of talking.
Hopefully this trend will catch on, and spread like wild-fire, all the way up the food chain to the hook-nosed nation wreckers in charge. That will be quite a day...
Hope may be a distraction, but I hope anyway. There is a real possibillity, that each time the jews go over the top and over-play their hand, that that will be the LAST time they ever do that here...
When enough Whites see that yes, you can remove the mud from your region, and hymie will be helpless to do anything but write weepy pity articles for those removed, then maybe, just maybe they will do the same thing in their areas.
Let's all hope, as well as act... NOW!!!

Me too, at least it's a good start. I'd like to be reminded of Nazi Germany daily.

Excellent question. Very perceptive. My guess is the town was hand picked to show us all how terrible things would be without all our "guest workers." Who will cut up our chicken without the Mexicans? Who will buy all the cheap junk our Koreans sell, but the Mexicans? Who will drive our cabs without the Somalis? We will be screwed without these valuable helpers.

The real concern in a real world should be, “How could this cold-blooded mother abandon her child like that?”
However, the jew spins this to pull on the heartstrings of the idiot lemming. No brain required, only feelings. This is the formula for the jew’s success over White people.

5.60 hour to work at Wal-mart as cashier, cheap, Awful:mad:
Excellent news. Too bad those ICE people can't find Southside Virginia on a map.
5.60 hour to work at Wal-mart as cashier, cheap, Awful:mad:
I calculated the minimum wage for 1970 into inflation adjusted dollars. The minimum wage back then would be 17 bucks an hour in today's dollars. So 35 years of technological innovation and it should be in at least the high 20's.
I've argued on stormfront that a white nationalist movement can confidently tell whites, that in an all white America the minimum wage would be 25 dollars an hour within a few years. That would bring almost every white below that wage onto our side, just out of natural human greed.
I love the way they title it "Immigration Raid Cripples Town". How in the FUCK is the town crippled if they admit it's driving the wages back up for whites. The article's whole tone contradicts the headline.

That's using gov stats on inflation ! Just imagine what it would be if you used real inflation numbers .
I think that you give the average lemming too much credit for intelligence . I don't think they could understand the average person earning 20+ per hour . They are too TV'd and dumbed down to realize the potential of an all white society .
Whites in America have fallen to a pathetic level .
