Fall River sweat shop illegal imigrants

[The Dad Fisherman]

I also think that the A$$-Wipes that run the factory should spend a little time in an 8x8 room so they can think about there part in this whole mess too.

I can find to grudge to bear against someone who's working hard to make a buck. All our jobs have the little unethical Points that are necessary to get the job done and the money in. Theirs was that they were here illegally. That illegality has and will blow like a fart in the wind back and forth with the public's opinion.
Having said that the real villians here are the factory owners. There are established labor laws. They chose to ignore them. They then chose to treat their help like slaves. Hang the owners..

I also agree...if you're here illegally- - - - you should get treated like a criminal - If you're supporting illegals, you're also just as guilty...if not more. I heard some nasty rumors about that sweat shop and how the illegals were treated. Going back to what Dadfisherman said...the owners should also be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law..

I heard they were only provided with 1 roll of toilet paper per day and they had to pay penalties for being late, leaving early, talking to a co-worker, a whole list of silly conditions in where they'd lose some of their petty pay. And I don't mean, they'd get 'docked' the time they were late, they actually had to pay fines quadrupling their hourly rate. Part of the price you pay for doing things illegally I guess.






However, as I am a Fall Riverite....I don't appreciate someone calling my town a "shiet hole" town. Perhaps it's run down, a little tired, a little over populated with scum-bugs...but let's not label a whole community due to some bad publicity, whether in the past or present. No personal offense taken - it just doesn't have a nice ring to it in my head when I play it back.
