You can go read the Los Angeles Times update story on the Postville, Iowa meatpacking crooks yourselves, but you won’t read much about the crooks who owned the plant, just the bad federal government for raiding it! Entitled, “Immigration raid leaves damaging mark on Postville, Iowa,” it ticks me off! The whole article is about how bad the raid was for the town, and virtually nothing on the lying, cheating crooks who ran the plant—the one’s encouraging illegal immigrants to come there in the first place.
We have written about Postville on many occasions here, especially because plant managers were hauling Somalis and other assorted immigrants to Postville too, further disrupting the small town.
When the meatpacking plant, Agriprocessors Inc., opened in the late 1980s, Orthodox Jews arrived to work as kosher butchers and envisioned a rural paradise for new synagogues and shuls. Migrants, mostly from Guatemala, began arriving in the 1990s — creating an ethnic stew with natives of mostly Eastern European descent.
“Rural paradise,” “ethnic stew,” what a bunch of B.S!
