Illegal Aliens Busted at Famous Surf Spot

If you were born and raised in the USA, it is hard to imagine the plight of the Illegal alien in this country. Many journalists, songwriters, and artists have tried to communicate through various mediums the pain and struggles that illegal aliens must endure. In my humble opinion, there is one film that personifies the illegal alien experience in the United States; this film is, “A MILLION TO JUAN”.

“A Million to Juan is a Romantic comedy about an honest Mexican immigrant who struggles without a green card by selling oranges on a street corner. One day a limousine pulls up and he is handed a check for $1,000,000 with instructions that he is to give the check back in 30 days. Initially he uses the check to convince people to extend credit to him. In the meantime he also attracts a woman who is in a dead end relationship with a bossy businessman. At the end of the 30 days, he finds his life in turmoil, the things he got on credit is repossessed, and he is being evicted from his dwelling and being sent back to Mexico. This film is directed by and starring Paul Rodriguez (yes, P-Rod’s dad).

Sixteen illegal immigrants were busted around 5:20am by La Migra (border patrol) trying to enter the United States via the famous Swami’s Beach in Encinitas, CA. They had arrived to this country via a traditional Mexican fishing boat and were quickly obtained along with the coyotes that brought them here.

I bet they wish they had an Edward James Almos looking guardian angel; instead they got a ride back to TJ.
