Two weeks ago, I stopped and parked about a half a block away from one of the 5-man tree crews. One guy was doing 'lookout duty' at the state road, while the otehrs continued planting trees. I'd notice and hear him whistle, and the others would grab their water bottles and walk around to the backside of the truck. Sure enough, a police - local, regional, country or state - would be driving down the road.

The lookout would then go back to the tree pile, bury his face in the foliage like he was untying the ropes, and the police would pass by. He'd stand up and the others would come out from around the opposite side of the truck they were hiding behind.

Jumping to conclusions?

Same thing happened when vol firefighters screamed by in their personal cars w/ blue light flashing, and the fire equipment came by with sirens and lights.

These guys didn't get a lot of work done, what with all the ducking and weaving and hiding. I ID'd the place they work for and phoned it into ICE in Harrisburg.

ICE detained 17 illegals there yesterday, and shut down the nursery/ grower. They also have huge crews working the orchards in the southern part of Penna. I don't know what's going to transpire with the orchard labor, but every single large grower around here uses illegals by the truckload.

This won't even make a dent in the problem. They'll just bring in new workers as replacements.
