And it's Willamette Week

The Mexican Connection
On May 5, two female FBI agents approached a farmhouse in Salem carrying a bottle of sparkling water, a potted plant and a greeting card from the local chamber of commerce.

When a Mexican woman answered the door, the agents introduced themselves as members of the local Welcome Wagon. The woman, who identified herself only as Ana, spoke little English and seemed eager for her visitors to leave.

Special Agent Michael Holeman, who was overseeing the investigation, later wrote in an affidavit that he believed the woman was "being held against her will and forced to grow marijuana."

A story worth reading and another reason to oppose an open border.

This supports my concern of the many Illegal Aliens who are working for labor contractors have been kidnapped into slave labor and/or their family in Mexico has been or is now under threat of kidnapping and violence if the Illegal Alien worker fails to earn income and send money home to those who are extorting money from the family.

Perhaps all those little Illegal Aliens lined up in the Bank every afternoon are sending money to criminals in Mexico who are holding their family hostage.

If you want someone to work hard for long hours and little pay, just hold a gun to the heads of family members.

Allen of Salem on his blog site relates an incident which he calls a riot involving 300 people and Tri-Met buses to hold them all.
Question:
Were these individuals hispanic? And if so, were they illegal aliens?
A 300 person riot and The Oregonian doesn't cover the story!
What's going on here!
Please, does anybody have more information on this story?
Hope to read more.

Oops, sorry about the duplicate.

Allen of Salem would attribute the attacks on 9/11 to Mexicans if he could.

So far I've seen him say Mexicans cause apartment fires, and think their babies are disposable.

In the interest of comparision, I've taken to calling all illegal aliens "puppy rapers"...

Maybe their idea of Embracing Diversity is doing a German Sheppard and a French Poodle both in one day.

HEY, if illegals are good at growing pot, and at low wage-rates, can they be hired to help bring in the "medical" marijuana crop? Wow! One more job unstoned Americans won't do.
