I was in El Paso last week and stood on the boarder of the US and Mexico. It is amazing to see the poverty that those people in Jaurez live in. If you ever get the chance to go there I think you should do it. If you are unable to travel that far but would like to have an idea of the sad misery that is Jaurez, you can see nearly the same thing by standing in Cincinatti and looking into Kentucky.

On a more serious note. This is a picture of the boarder fence in one area between El Paso and Jaurez. I don't really know where I stand on the whole imagration thing, but I think we could certianly build a better fence than this.

I worked in Heroica Nogales Mexico, for a mining company a few years ago. Those pictures look just like it did there. After you see how they have to live there, I could not blame them for coming here. If you want to Blame anyone for illegal immigration blame our government for allowing them to get the benefits they get.
