Dalton PD: "Whoopsie, it wasn't her that made an illegal turn. We're dropping the traffic charges."

ICE: "So she's legal?"

DPD: "Yeah... about that."



This is MTG's district (and my hometown, back in the day).

Check out the wailing & gnashing of tooth from some of these malcontents. Everyone defending the illegal girl refuse to acknowledge that not only was she AN ILLEGAL ALIEN, none of this changes the fact that she was driving without a valid license:






Meanwhile, Zachary gets it:



They're tagging Kim Kardashian, FFS.

Soooo the girl was unlucky due to mistaken vehicle identity , but when it comes down to it she is still here illegally and in college somehow and driving with no license and likely no insurance

They all gotta go.

Tough shite

Yep, it's like getting Capone on tax evasion. End result is the same.

My good buddy works in one of the carpet factories up there in a managerial position. On the floor, it's all hispanics with fake docs. If you deported them all, there wouldn't be a carpet and rug industry in Dalton. There needs to be a path to legal status for the folks who bust their arse in those factories all day to make MADE IN AMERICA carpets and rugs.


ETA- there are Americans who work there too, day shift, but nobody wants to work nights and weekends, except the chicanos. It's a 24 hour operation, 365 days a year. So these mexi's aren't "taking" jobs from Americans in this factory, they are working the shifts that the American's don't want to work.


ETA2- There seems to be some regional ignorance here, understandable. Dalton GA is a giant center for carpet and rug manufacturing in this country, it's the "carpet capital of the world" per Google AI. I'm not just talking about one factory. The whole industry would cease to exist without immigrant labor, there needs to be a path for legality besides just using fake docs to work there. I want them to have real docs, and be vetted, and in a data base, etc.

Anyone driving without insurance should get life in prison.

I’d bet a pretty red penny that she is going to college for free.

So without illegal immigration these people never open a carpet store?


That sounds like bullshite. Seems like it's just cheaper to hire an illegal and they don't have crazy work restrictions like teenagers do.


Or maybe they went and worked for the solar companies.

It's a giant factory, not a store. Not sure your point. Please elaborate.

The carpet factory should get crippling fines and mandated closure until the fines are paid for hiring illegals to run his mill. Hit these companies where it hurts and force them to vet their workforce.

This would be a great way to push this factory overseas.

There is a path. They chose to ignore it.

My argument is if you had to hire a bunch of illegals to stay affloat your business wasn't sound.


And after doing more research, Dalton is no longer the big carpet capitol of the world. They make solar panels now. The city was going under. With or without illegals working at a carpet factory.


quote:

Dalton ?“was a ghost town in 2011, nothing going on because everybody was hurting,” Campbell added. From June 2011 to June 2012, Dalton notched the dubious distinction of most jobs lost of all 372 metro areas surveyed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. By that point, one-quarter of Dalton’s pre-recession jobs had vanished, and unemployment surged to 12.3 percent.



quote:

Dalton employment numbers peaked at 80,200 in 2006, per the Chattanooga Times Free Press. But the Great Recession crushed the homebuilding industry, cratering demand for Dalton’s carpeting products.


Anecdotal, but I dont have carpet in my house, all wood floors. Times change.



Therefore, I totally reject your want to fast track some carpet workers to citizenship.

Less people want carpet these days.


Them not selling more carpet isn't because they can't hire more illegals.


The demand for carpet is less.


Seems like peopel went to work at these places instead.

DALTON, Ga. — Growing up in Cartersville, Georgia, Lisa Nash saw what happens to communities when factory jobs disappear. It was the 1980s and corporations were offshoring production to reduce costs and raise profits. The jobs that remained in this northwest corner of the state were typically lower-paying ones that didn’t offer the same ladder to the middle class.

“My parents and grandparents were in manufacturing, and they were the ones saying, ?‘Don’t do it,’” Nash recalled.

Nash disregarded their advice, embarking instead on a long career in manufacturing — first in textiles, followed by stints in aviation, automotive, and steel. Now she’s helping to bring higher-tech, higher-paying factory work back to the corridor between Atlanta and Chattanooga.

Nash is the general manager of the Qcells solar panel factory in Dalton, a town of 34,000 located 50 miles up I-75 from her hometown. It opened in January 2019, after the Trump administration imposed a fresh round of tariffs on Chinese-made panels. The Korean conglomerate Hanwha owns Qcells, and initially planned to hire several hundred people at the site, Nash told me on a recent visit to the factory. By the end of 2019, it employed more than 800.




quote:

Qcells broke ground on a second facility in Dalton in February 2023. Completed that August, the expansion added two football fields’ worth of manufacturing space with four new production lines — which produce 1.5 times more solar panels than the original three lines, thanks to technological advances. Now the whole complex employs 2,000 people full time and makes 5.1 gigawatts of solar panels a year, more than any other site in the U.S.

No one's saying that the legal immigration process doesn't need to be reformed, streamlined. I believe we all agree that there's likely a significant difference between this girl who's getting deported and the MS-13/TdA gangbangers currently inhabiting CECOT.

THAT SAID, the immigration process should begin and end at the US Embassy in the prospective emigree's home country.

We must stop rewarding line jumpers. Period.

Spare me the Hooker with a Heart of Gold narrative, too. Every last one of these motherfrickers are keenly aware of the process as currently written. They deliberately chose to ignore the process and the laws that establish them. They rolled the dice and figured the odds would be in their favor. Their desire to get ahead was greater than their desire to follow the rules.

That some of the rules may be stupid is immaterial. It's the same moral relativism that is used to justify smoking marijuana where it's still illegal.

Deportation is like the Starfish Story:



ICE is making a difference to that one.
