Volunteers with an Arizona Immigration-Rights Group are speaking out and informing the public about "routine" abuses by the U.S. Border Patrol. Maria Tirado, a graduate student who recently volunteered in Nogales claims that the "Border Patrol routinely denies people . . . basic amenities" including water. Beth Eastman, a volunteer for No More Deaths was told that detainees were being forced to sign documents in English, even though they did not understand what they were signing.
I understand the immigration issue, but human rights should not go out the window because a person is judged to be "illegal." The people coming over the borders are still human beings, and should be treated humanely. --Agnes F. Castronuevo
