Hi Samantha,
I'm not sure if you are done or not, but I think the poem might be a little harsh. From my understanding, most of the people who are calling stricter border control are not against Mexican/Hispanic people. They are for documenting people who are entering our country the same way every other country does. Since, 1/4 of the California prison system is comprised of illegal immigrants and police in Arizona can't even crack down on meth labs because most of the meth comes from Mexico, it is important to document who is here. I guess my question is, why is it that wanting to have people documented is portrayed as prejudice? I think that people are people and they should all be given dignity, but if I go to another country I have to have my Passport and let them know what I plan to do while there. If I'm not a citizen of that country, I have to get paperwork in order to obtain a job. I do not cry "prejudice" because of this, I understand that this is the system. It helps keep people safe on both sides. So why should that be different here? Aside from that, I thought that your presentation was good. The pictures and graphs were really informational. I'll come back in a few days to see if you added more info.

I liked the Powerpoint because it was very informational. I was also pleased to see that there were quite a few visuals. One thing I kid of got confused with was when you talked about Coyotes and how they would rape and kill the people, but i didnt understand what it said next about slavery? I also liked the pictures on your wiki, the poem may be a little too racy though, just because some white people may be behind the imigration laws that doenst mean that all white people are. Kind of ironic... But overal pretty dang good!

Hi Samantha,
I just now came back and viewed your page again. I really liked your PP presentation. I thought that you made some really good points. I agree that there needs to be a reform in the Mexican government to make Mexico a better place to live. The stuff I wrote above still applies though with regards to documentation. How coyotes treat people is horrible and there should be strict punishments for them for taking advantage of people in a tough situation. This is a good reason to implement a guest worker program. Good job on your presentation. It looks like you really worked hard on it and it was very visually appealing.

Hello. I liked you powerpoint presentaion. i thought that it was a little bit wordy, but I think that it was good overall. I think that you had a lot of information and I think that you could have more pictures then words, but it was good.
