Border Patrol

The show I choice to watch for the first time was Border Patrol although I had never seen it before within in the first few minutes even without sound it was clear what the show was about.  Watching it without sound I found myself paying close attention to the emotions exhibited by the characters.  It is amazing how much can be understood with the emotions alone.

Border Patrol without sound there were military officials that were arresting and identifying people that may be illegal immigrants.  The officials walked through desert areas searching for individuals trying to sneak across the border.  When they caught the group of four men they took them in for questioning before they fingerprinted and photographed them.  Them men sat in a cell and look very anxious and upset because they were fidgeting and their facial expressions showed their nerves.  The officers were nice and did not seem to mistreat the men in anyway.

When I turned the sound on it was evident that my assumptions were basically correct.  The officials were given a lead that there was a group of individuals trying to sneak across the border.  They then went searching the area the lead led them to believe the individuals may be.  After searching they did arrest them and took them in for questioning.  They asked them where they were from, what their family status was, and what their plan had been.  The men told the officials that they were not able to care for their families in Mexico and their hope was to come to the U.S, and find work so that they could send money back to their families.  The officials displayed sympathy for the men but since they were entering the country illegally they needed to follow the law.  They processed the required paper work and extradited the men back to Mexico.
