I was wondering if Home Depot was the site of the protest since so many residents hang out at Home Depot parking lots looking for some day jobs. This reminds me of the film A Day Without Mexicans. No one is willing to work in the conditions or for the pay these hard working people are willing to do. Who in the hell is going to pick all the food in the valley? NO ONE! Especially the redneck, loser assholes who are calling for them to be deported.

99.9% of citizens would never work for shitty pay, no benefits, horrid working conditions, back breaking labor 8 hours a day in the hot sun. They are the biggest hypocrites on Earth when their hate filled MAGAT rhetoric about deporting people is coming out of their disgusting, vile, crap eating mouths.
