2. What did you find particularly enlightening or disturbing from the video, How can you spot an illegal immigrant?

In the video from youtube "How can you spot an illegal immigrant", Rick Sanchez interviews Sheriff Joe Arpaio and discusses the basis for determining illegality on immigrant people. It is inhuman the fact that discrimination for appearance, nationality or skin color takes place.

If there is an immigration problem where people from other countries have managed to cross the frontier, it means that these people are unsatisfied in the place that they are living in.  There is a fear that with Arizona’s law, discrimination and racism increments. 

The Governor of Arizona Jawn Brewer says: "the Law will be enforced civilly, fairly and without discriminatory points.”  This is the main goal of the "law", to provide justice for everyone inside a community.

The sides are defined (immigrants and citizens), boarders may be divided, but as a question of history, our human rights and the conscience of freedom and respect should be applied.  It is important to get different opinions, listen to the community and unify the voices of the people.  As human beings, we are no different from one another; we all live in the same world.
