Our wonderful(?) president has side stepped a very volatile issue and that is immigration. This is a controversy that certain states such as California, Arizona, Utah, Texas has to deal with...other states as well but not as much as these states.
Since most of you are quite up-to-date on current events you may have heard of civilians joining Minuteman Project to patrol Arizon's Mexican border for illegal immigrants and smugglers. They will monitor a 20-mile stretch of the border.
A group like this is almost like vigilantism and opposing groups(mainly Chicano and/or Mexican civil rights groups, churches and street gangs) automatically is crying wolf and racism(that's another hot topic that will not die or ever go away).These volunteers wouldn't be getting together if the federal government did their job because of their unwillingness to enforce federal immigration laws.
Is this a good or bad thing, do you think immigration is affecting the U.S. or y'all don't give a crap? Just wondering.
Now let's go play volleyball!
