I live by and grew up in the area of one of those small towns which is now mostly latino, due to a meat processing plant. There were no latinos anywhere that I knew of growing up. I've lived in Central America and in amongst immigrants to the US at times. My Democrat family is que worried about deportation terror and persecution. I said, have you looked at the court records in recent years for this nearby town gone latino? The Court docket shows crimes of sexual molestation, violence, etc that are not as much an issue in neighboring towns with less rapid immigration. It's not that Latinos are being discriminated against, but more that they are being victimized by this same free for all immigration situation. It's so much easier to prey upon people who are fearful of law enforcement, who are likely to do anything not to get in trouble. The many many latinos who have incredible traditional values and a culture worth learning from are being effectively victimized by this situation.
I'm in the hospital and a nurse came in to to squeeze out more blood, though I must be sanguine by now. I asked why and she explained they want to be assured the white cells aren't taking over and replace the red ones. I blurted out "Yeah, that would be racist," then tried to change the subject because she has American Indian features. Turned out ok; she didn't get it or maybe didn't hear it
You have got to watch those White Supremacist Blood Cells.
Any minute now, they will be inventing the telephone, and the aeroplane, and taking over the whole body ...
and making all those coloured cells work all day long in those organs ...
and not even give them Sunday off.
Enough is Enough
RED BLOOD CELLS MATTER
But let's keep this to ourselves, while you are still in the hospital.
No sense scaring the natives.
I just prayed for you Elaine ..
that God would bring you home all cured, if it be His will ...
but if not, that He would give you peace ...
and use you mightily, before He takes you to your reward.
In the meantime ...
I want to encourage you to promote Daily Family Worship as the NUMBER ONE INDISPENSABLE FAMILY ACTIVITY.
5 minutes in the morning
5 minutes in the evening
Read the Bible and pray with your family
If you have time, sing a psalm or a hymn.
This, MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE, will bullet proof your family.
1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper - Psalm 1

The Minnesota data matches those national trends. Migrant children living with unrelated adults are most highly concentrated in Worthington, where JBS Foods had at least 22 underage children working overnight shifts cleaning a slaughterhouse. The janitorial company employing those children also sent underage workers to plants in St. Cloud and Austin, which also stand out on the map.
They are likely still coming for a better life. Everyone knows someone who is doing well, sending money back to the family, living what from afar seems like a great life, and may well be. And many immigrants do make a good life for themselves, and sacrifice greatly to support family back home. The value of being "trabajador" is very strong. Work is a value, and family. If conditions are bad, it might not be possible, or feel right, to tell your family back home, when they can't help and are depending on you, even if you're underage. Once you start the journey, you want to make it and be what you and others imagined for you.
Being an immigrant sets one up for being vulnerable to abuses. The abuses can come from other immigrants, who are criminal. They can also come from citizens, who run businesses or take advantage of vulnerable people in a million ways. They are also victimized by law enforcement. Yes, there are ethical good cops, and there are those who find the authority useful or even corruptive to abuse those who don't see how to defend themselves.
I hate to say it, but that might still be a "better life". Just not a better life to any of us. For some underage children, having a job with money is something better than they ever had (migrants or not).
I doubt being a virtual slave is a better life for anyone 😕 I also doubt they are making money, it’s probably being taken from them by the traffickers. And the ones who are forced into prostitution have it even worse 😞
The 10% of the minors that end up in the homes of unrelated adults or distant relatives would be concerning for sure. I have known several migrant underage children living with siblings that were thrilled to have a job with money to send back home, even underpaid and under the table. If 90% get that, it looks good on paper. What the reality is we can't know unless someone can track down the unaccounted for children. That no one has a record of where those kids went is beyond disturbing.
You have a lot to learn and it won't be easy on your soul. These children are working to pay off their "debt" to get here. In reality, they are intended slaves. If they aren't working in the meat packing plants (illegally), they will be used as sex slaves and then cut up for body parts. It is $150 B industry.
Putin worked to stop it in Ukraine. The industry just moves to a different location. Read this article twice. It's hard to digest:

I’m so tired of the color/religion/ethic divide that is being played on us. How about we use morality as the yardstick to dividing people?

Which debunks the whole “they’re coming here for a better life” narrative the Democrats keep bleating 😕
Right?
once again, better life "for me, and not for thee"
TRUTH!!! 😡😡😡🔥🔥🔥⚡⚡⚡
