You have to ask?

Federal agents raided the House of Raeford's Columbia Farms chicken processing plant in Greenville, South Carolina, Tuesday. They detained more than 300 suspected illegal aliens. Maria Juan waited for word of her grandmother who she says is here legally even though she had no papers with her. "Families are going to be broken apart," Ms. Juan said. "There will be kids and babies left behind. Why are they doing this? Why?"

Well, Senorita Juan, it could be because a review of this plant's paperwork found that 775 of 825 employees had provided false information. "They didn't do anything," Senorita Juan says. Except enter this country illegally.
