I've been involved in law enforcement for almost 24-years... Coming from a border State with 12-years service with the Houston Police Dept. and 6-foreign missions as an International Police Advisor/Trainer have made me a bit of an expert in regards to illegal immigration. If Americans only knew what we were setting ourselves up for in 20-years illegal immigration would be stopped tomorrow! I was so proud to see my fellow Americans working hand in hand with the border patrol to help curtail the river of illegal immigration that flows into the southern U.S. daily! I have wanted to write a paper in regards to illegal immigration in this country but I didn't think I had the time,after viewing this film I will make the time! Another incentive I have is about 18-months ago an illegal alien executed a Houston Police Officer shooting him in the back of the head while he sat in his patrol car... I'm sick and tired of illegal aliens killing American citizens and then fleeing south of the border for sanctuary,this has got to stop............... Wow,

I felt fairly confident that I was an informed person regarding immigration prior to watching this but my eyes have been opened even more. Keep up the good fight. Thank you for making this Chris.

The movie is, of course, "Border: the Divide Between the American Dream and the American Nightmare". I would like to see this documantary, but unfortunately I cannot afford the DVD. Is there going to be any more screenings? I can perhaps make that. Whatever... I am glad that someone, (you), had the courage and foresight to document this tragedy. I don't want to get political, but this is a REAL problem, but no-one running for political ofice, from local, to State, to Federal, has even mentioned this issue, let alone promise (?) to do anything about it. I am a 59-year-old Caucasion and I hate to see my country slowly being diminished, both in strength, leadership, and opportunity as well as economically. Diversity is sometimes a double-edged sword. At least you have made both sides of the out-of-control 'situation' available on an equitabl] basis. Thank you. Dave, in Lancaster. Dear Chris Burgard:
