It's about time!

It's one of those headlines that you read, scratch your head, and then wonder: "Why is this news? Shouldn't they be doing this all the time anyway?!?"

At least, that's what I thought when I read this in the Houston Chronicle:

Immigration officials raid Houston business

"Immigration officials made a surprise visit to a Houston business this
morning and questioned dozens of workers at two different worksites."

Well, all I can say is: It's about time! I feel bad for those who will inevitably suffer (the illegal immigrant and his/her family), but we are a nation of laws, not of men -- and no one is above the law.

After reading in the papers all the time about those who flout the law so frivilously, it's nice to see "the law" asserting itself for a change.
