Arizona
I met a man who was deported from Arizona today. He was walking around in the center of town alone and they decided that that was suspicious behavior. Since his English wasn't very strong he couldn't defend himself, and explain that he was just going to the store (not that it would have mattered by the standards of Arizona law) They took the opportunity and deported him after he'd lived there two years. He sounded bitter but definitively said that he now loves Guatemala more. He made more money in the US but he feels richer in the Guatemalan setting living in poverty he made it sound. "So why are you learning English now," I asked him. He'd made friends there with people who initially helped him with the language and he wants to continue the friendship.
