Farmers...usually located in the midwest.

These protest are usually centered around the "open borders" crowed.....BAD IDEA! or those that want to return half the country to its supposed rightfull owners.

but don't worry you have nothing to fear but the federal govt monitoring them.....


Coming to a US post office near you:

The farm I worked at in Nebraska didn't have one single mexican working there.  Usually corn is harvested via combine wich can work pretty efficiently.  These "machines of wonder" cost $250K + so usually farmers don't let migrant workers drive them.

There's a lot more to farming than just driving a combine.  Plenty of migrant farm workers throughout the midwest these days.

PNAC drives those combines!!! ARGGGGH!

Oh..wait... disregard.

Funk, you really haven't been out in the Midwest during plowing/planting/harvesting season have ya?

Most of the immigrants out here in the rural areas work in the slaughter houses.

Row crops like corn, wheat, milo, soybeans don't require much manual labor. It's not like Kali.
