ENRiQUE!

Yesterday Enrique a man from the border angels came to our class. I never knew about the Border Angels until he explained it to us. They go out into the desert near the Mexican border and leave water for people in the desert mostly immigrants. Even though it's not good for illegal immigrants trying to cross over they don't want people die because of it so that's why they're trying to help them. I also learned about the Minute Men which is a group of people who are against illegal immigrants crossing over. Some Minute Men stand on the U.S. side of the border with guns waiting to shoot any illegal immigrants trying to cross the border. The Border Angels & the Minute Men apparently do not get a long. I would rather be on the Border Angels side because I don't think it's right for people to be dying because anyone should be allowed into our country. If I can I'm going to try & volenteer to help the Border Angels because they are people who think of others & are doing the right thing. :]
