A 16-year-old employee died Friday at a Mississippi chicken processing plant, a county official said. Mar-Jac Poultry said the teen died from injuries suffered in what it described as an “accident” in an emailed statement to CNN.
Kinda doxxing myself a bit but we actually don’t have that many migrants in MS. Most of the ones I have seen as well tend to work family businesses and they migrated way before the new wave of immigration.
The chain starts off talking about children. A lot of children commuting internationally to MS these days? Are we granting work visas to children all of a sudden? Clearly no one in this thread is working from the same definitions, but that’s actually how language works. Specificity is key if you don’t want to be misunderstood.

2% of MS population is people in first generation in the US, mostly people from Central America
First generation doesn’t mean migrant. Migrants cross the border to work but live in their home nation.
Migrants are people who migrate.
“Migrant worker” has a specific meaning.
This is not a hot take by me. This is just you not knowing what words mean
You didn’t say “migrant worker,” you said “migrant.” All words have specific meaning, that’s not a hot take either.
If only you had the context of an entire comment chain to pull from

Do you live near this plant?
About 45 minutes out, I actually go to Hattiesburg pretty often too.
