OMAHA, Nebraska — Immigration authorities raided an Omaha meat production plant Tuesday morning and took dozens of workers away in buses, leaving company officials bewildered because they said they had followed the law.

“My biggest issue is: Why us?” Hartmann said. “We do everything by the book.”

The plant uses E-Verify, the federal database used to check the immigration status of employees. When he said as much to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers who carried out the raid, they told him the E-Verify system “is broken.”

“I mean, what am I supposed to do with that?” Hartmann said. “This is your system, run by the government. And you’re raiding me because your system is broken?”

2. Casting a net this wide will result in dire and unintended consequences.

beyond the scope of the government to address. Rounds-ups, purges, and detention camps are never a positive indicator for any free nation's tomorrow.

6. The system isn't broken, but it did tell them exactly how many people they were looking for there

Their actual status is irrelevant if they weren't born here, at least to these jackbooted thugs.
