An artical written by Kristen McCabe & doris Meissner, January 2010, disscuses the issues of Immigration in the United states as a whole. They say that,

"Immigration, perhaps more than any other social, political, or economic process, has shaped the unoted states as a nation"

Which is really a far state to make as Americans are there as a result of immigration. The artical goes on to talk about the Immigration laws before 9/11 and after. Its says that the most significant thing was the USA Patriot Act, which then President, George. W. Bush signed october 2001. Baseiclly it allowed law enforcement to allow suspected terrorists to be, "Searched, monitored, detained, and deported; strengthened border enforcement and allowed for the detention of foreign nationals for up to seven days while the government decides whether or not to file criminal or immigration charges"



Machete is a 2010, Robert Rodriguez spoof film, dealing with undertone latino immigration plot. Obviously from the trailer the Latino's are the good guys and the republican white folk are the bad. in the actual movie, events are exaggerated and the Congressman himself shoots and kills Latino immigrants trying to cross the border. 'Machete' has a lot of controversy over this race issue, most importantly tying it too Arizona, saying how the movie basically portrays all white Americans as racist. However this movie is the type that should not be taken seriously.
