One walker's T-shirt that needed little translation summed up the thrust of Sunday's march in support of 57 Mills Manufacturing workers arrested in August: “Dignidad, Igualdad, Justicia.”

About 65 people, a mix of Anglos and Latinos, marched from Mills Manufacturing in Woodfin to downtown Asheville Sunday morning to protest the arrest and looming deportation of 57 workers Aug. 12 at the parachute manufacturing facility. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, working with local law enforcement, raided Mills, which normally employs about 175 people.

The outpouring of support in the human rights march moved one of those former workers, 22-year-old Gabriela Zepeda, to tears. She worked at Mills for two months before the raid.

The moron in the tee shirt: Because it can't be said enough . . learn English.

Also those poor misguided anglos should stage a march opposing illegal immigration so they can see how these leeches really feel about them and to realize that they are merely using them for their own self centered gain.

When will these ingrates learn that this isn't their country, and we owe them nothing? Let them continue with their protests. It only serves to open more eyes and increase anti-illegal sentiment.

Seriously, it is mind boggling that so many "adults" exhibit the mental capacity of 2 year old children. I am honestly beginning to believe there is either a lot of inbreeding going on in mexico or that the majority of them are born brain damaged.

I just take offense that they are protesting and they are in our country illegally,” Elliott said. “It's not a racial issue. It's an ethical issue.”

She was the only protester, but she made her presence known. As the walkers sang “We Shall Overcome” in Spanish, Elliott belted out “God Bless America” and “The Star Spangled Banner.”The crowd drowned out her lone voice.
They sang it in espanol in America? . . . . wow just wow.

2 whole months??? Wowowowowow. Big deal.
Tinman story dedicated to gabby Zepeda.
Gabby Zapeda came to America looking for the american dream. She risked all and paid even more. Coyote's are not cheap.
She crossed the boarder under the cloak of darkness and later found herself working in a parachute factory. English not required. Nor was a work visa, valid SSN or a legal ID. She and 4 other families shared a run down 2 bedroom apartment that smelled of home. ( Gee what was that smell)?
Zapeda sewed until her fingers nearly bled. Saving her pennies to send back home to help pay the coyote to bring moreof her family to America and the Parachute factory. After all that apartment had room for at least 3 more families.
Then somebody ratted. Worse still the pro-illegal rats never called to alert them to call in sick. The ICE rats were better than their rats.
Now she is facing deportation and she just bought a new pair of shoes...
Now for the rest of the story:
It was discovered that Zapeda not only had 3 different STD's no doubt delivered to her by the Coyote's but she also has TB.
The disgusting pig of a manager married for 25 years coincidently has all 3 of those STD's and TB..... One can only wonder how that happened.
