Mr. Cordova's reward?

Cordova, meanwhile, was taken into custody by Border Patrol agents who were the first to respond to the call for help. He had been trying to walk into the U.S. when he came across the boy.

As Santa Cruz County, AZ Sheriff Sheriff Tony Estrada says:

Cordova likely saved the boy and his actions should remind people not to quickly characterize all illegal immigrants as criminals.

GOOD GRIEF! Your bigotry is astounding!
By the way, you mis-tagged this clip. It hasn't anything to do with immigration.

How so? Because it shows that someone who crosses the border can be, gasp!, a human being? And it does have something to do with immigration, had the man not cross where he had and risked deportation to help that child it would not even make it on the news.

This clip is a stark contrast to the usual clippers who post the typical illegal immigrant kills such and such. Trying to portray them as everything that is wrong with our country when the truth is they are just like us, capable of every range of emotion and every range of act.

That's OK, JK. BR's comment just points out the continual parade of bigotry.
Anyway, thanks for enlightening me on the abilities and compassion of illegal immigrants. We would have never known had you not told us.

By the way, organ donors of all races and nationalities saved and/or improved lives today. Someone of all races and nationalities probably prevented a violent crime today with a gun. Someone of all races and nationalities assisted a neighbor in need. Some illegal immigrants donated money and time to homeless shelters.

The fact you present such an obscure story as validation of illegal immigrants reveals your intellectual starting point on the matter.

Regarding this clip, I have nothing to add beyond BobbyRutan's comment, which nicely lays out my motivation for clipping this.

the truth is Conservatives want more immigrants to come to America.
I do not see much of a groundswell for increasing legal immigration anywhere in the political spectrum of America. Could I trouble you for an elaboration and/or evidence?
