None of this is about undocumented immigrants. We have proof of that. [View all]
If this was about undocumented immigrants the logical solution would be to enforce the rules prohibiting employing undocumented workers. One single processing plant owner. One single farmer.
If they went after the people employing the undocumented workers, gave THOSE people jail time and stiff fines, no one would be doing it.
Instead, they choose the infinitely harder task of going after the workers themselves. Instead of one person, they have to arrest dozens. Then they have to house the dozens, feed them, transport them, go through the cost of dozens more legal procedures, then incur the cost of the actual deportation. And none of that actually stops illegal immigration.
They do this when they could actually stop the employment of undocumented workers with a fraction of the effort and cost.
So we know this isn't about anger at the presence of people working illegally.
So what is left as a motive for this?
Fun. They do this because they find it fun. This is how they get their jollies. They get some kind of sick, sour joy in their shriveled little hearts from doing and seeing this cruelty that lets them think they are better than someone. There is no other explanation that makes sense of their senseless actions.
