The
illegal immigration debate hit home last week as the owners of the
Cancun Mexican restaurants and the Fajita Grill were arrested on charges
of conspiring to harbor illegal aliens and employing illegal aliens.
The soft, slow response of the federal authorities to the violations allegedly perpetrated by these Mexican restaurants is a perfect example of why we have an illegal immigrant problem in this country. The investigation into the Fajita Grill began in 2008, before the Cancun restaurant ever opened in Biddeford. Does it really take three years to check a few people’s citizenship status? http://www.journaltribune.com/articles/2011/09/29/editorial/doc4e84881d6acff425584590.txt
