'Safety Meeting' Actually an Immigration Sting
Federal immigration officials are taking heat from several quarters--including colleagues in other government agencies--for luring some North Carolina construction workers to what was advertised as a "mandatory" Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) meeting.

Instead of getting safety training, the four dozen workers found themselves under arrest as illegal immigrants from Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, and Ukraine.

Yeah, so?

Either show up, and be deported if you're illegal; or, don't show up, and be fired irregardless of status.

The only ones "getting heat" should be the willing employers, and their enablers...and maybe the ones getting hot about it.
