LAUREL—About 30 cars were lined up in front of Howard Industries` Laurel plant today filled with people looking for jobs.

An estimated 350 workers are being held at an undisclosed location following an early morning raid Monday on Howard Industries that officials say is the largest round-up of its type in Mississippi in recent years.

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency said the 350 employees at a Howard Industries plant in Laurel are in the country illegally.

Federal warrants were issued at the plant early Monday and also at the corporate headquarters in Ellisville.

Shantay Holles, 26, of Heidelberg said she used to work at Howard Industries as an electric tester but was fired last year. She said she is applying today because she heard on the news about the ICE raid.

“That`s all they would hire—Mexican, Mexican, Mexican!” Holles said.

Samantha Stevens, 18, a 2008 graduate of Heidelberg High School, said she couldn`t find a job and she is glad the ICE stepped in.

“We were here first. It`s not fair for them to have a job,” Stevens said.

Miss Stevens statement about being “here first” is more poignant when you know that she`s a graduate of a high school which is 100% African-American, and therefore she can claim that her ancestors were brought to America in chains to work for no pay. Now that they`re free, Howard Industries is trying to replace them with illegals from Brazil, El Salvador, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, and Peru, according to ICE.

We don’t have apartheid but the elites still want to turn this country into S. Africa Part 2.
