This kind of news has had a hard impact on all types of lives here in Emporia...Not only is Tyson's workplace made up of different nationalities and races, but also of real human beings trying to keep their families afloat; and trying to stay off of welfare or government assistance..so for those of whom are ignorant to the situation, you should step back for a moment and analyze the situation at hand before bashing them ILLEGALS OR NOT!! Put yourselves in their shoes' just maybe they are a little to big for you all to fill....I am sick and tired of having to hear how them illegals are taking your jobs, how they take up space in the community, and so on and so on....WELL here's the chance to take back what everyone is so worried about...take it all...cause noone else will be around to pick up after 1/2 of Tyson employees move on...so for the ones who have been born and raised here in Emporia, think how this change will also be for all..So not only are the illegals going to be affected but everyone, and about building more this and more that, c'mon get real...get ready to file bankruptcy very soon....see how long this town will last, if at the least, back to how it was before the immigrants came and made something of this town....YES they all did help with the economy, whether we like it or not!!!!!
