Deportees

Showing how the INS has souped up their enfoircing policies, and basically denied the immigrants their rights to counsel and representation, this article about deportees and the plight of illegal workers to arrive here in the USA.
The option is clear: starve in their country, making 1.20 at hour working for an American corporation, or come here to the USA, and make 5.75 an hour - much better possibilities, and a little future in the horizon.

Funny that you bring this up. I didn't read the article you're linking to, but in the news today I saw a story about a Colombian family that is looking for refugee status here in Canada and now they are kind of hiding in a church here in Montreal and very sad because the Canadian gov. has decided their lives are not in danger and they are going to be deported.

Sad, indeed. I don't know if the story has anything to do with the article, but when I read the word "deportees" I thought about that girl I saw crying, asking for a chance for a better life.
