Thank you so very much for your blog. As a Mesan I and my family are constantly astounded and embarrassed by our ignorant elected monkeys. (Did you catch Cecil Ash on Anderson Cooper?!) We continue to fight against their tyranny. Their absurdity is stunning! Keep speaking out and know our family in Mesa is continuing to do the same. Thanks again so much!

I saw the “hate” mail you got. I’ve received similar “comments” when I write blog entries that are not in line with something like S.B. 1070.

It is a battle, as I see it. Hatred v. Compassion. Which will prevail, I cannot say.

I say hatred because just about all anti-immigrant people I have met absolutely refuse to take into account the integral human component. Let’s hope Brewer vetoes.

Your writing is compelling, as usual. Is there a solution to the “drug wars” or “war on drugs”? In the final analysis, do politicians on either side of the border really care? The deaths just become statistics and have become meaningless to other than family members.

Terry –

Really enjoyed your website. Interesting, insightful, well-done. Congrats.

I’m the Gulf Coast Correspondent for USA TODAY, based in New Orleans. I’ve written about immigration issues in the past and I’m interested in doing some more, particularly out of Arizona or Texas.

What would you say are the top issues or stories out there at the moment? Any other people I should connect with?

Feel free to contact me via email: rjervis@usatoday.com.

Thanks in advance. Hope to hear from you.

Hi,

I discovered you via Twitter and really appreciate your perspective and information you provide (plus great photos that make me homesick).

I am a Latina raised in Tucson and Michigan, and I really really appreciate having a white ally who clearly cares about what is happening to immigrants, esp. on the southwestern border.

As a Latina who grew up in the SW and married an Mexican national, I have experienced racism my whole life. To see a white person openly recognize it….that it exists and is wrong…well it is a balm to the wounds I endure and gives me hope that justice will prevail. I was so surprised to see the content of your site and the twitter posts that I actually had to do a double-take at first. Then I followed you!
