This article shows Canada and Mexico are the main avenues for illegal aliens into America although others arrive in planes and ships. Mexico has been documented that they actually encourage their poorest citizens, criminal populations, and others to illegally immigrate into the United States.Polls have found that a majority of Mexicans would prefer to live in the United States and the majority feel they do not need American permission to enter the US because they think we stole their lands in 1848.
Interesting article. It is seemed biased to me, like all Mexicans are criminals, smugglers, traffickers...every country accidentally has illreputes cross the border. I agree that certain countries have a worse reputation for this type of activity and that it can become a big problem if not controlled. I can also see how hard it is for the airports to have more control of who is entering the country. It is not their fault that they don't catch everyone.
ReplyDeleteUltimately, I found the article interesting because it showed just how desperate people are to find a glimpse of freedom.
This is interesting, Steve. You have actually included a link to another blog, which discusses the issues. Very creative. However, be careful. Use this kind of resource by all means, but also support it with other material, like a reputable magazine or newspaper article, even something from the US, Canadian or Mexican government site. Blogs, almost by definition, can tend to bias, not always, but think carefully about what kind of viewpoint they're taking.
