@@EarthToKiki it's not easy to get a gun. You have to go through a whole process before being cleaned to purchase. Just like you go through a process to become an American. The difference is that being born American means you are born with rights and becoming an American means you are being granted rights. Statistically speaking there are more responsible gun owners then irresponsible gun owners. Yes. Irresponsible people that own guns can be an issue. But it's not the guns it's the people.

I know for a fact a gun isn’t powerful without someone controlling it. Either way. Our biggest mass shooting for example.. look HOW MANY guns he had in the Vegas shooting. Why was that so easy for him to have & walk around with JUST like that. I believe in gun rights as well please do not get me wrong. I don’t believe in them taking that right away.

What if the neighbors hadn't helped her? I would have been scared shitless if that would have happened to me when I was 14, my whole family disappearing on me like that.

Her parents were illegal so they didn't have records and the parents didn't say hey we have children being left behind. They should have told someone we want our daughter to come with us and not left her behind. They made the choice to leave her behind believing she was better off in the US then going back to Colombia with them. She has made a good life for herself in the US but who's to say she wouldn't have had a good life in Colombia. It's hard to get back in once the US kicks you out. The best choice is wait your turn, save and pay the fees and come legally. The cost of coming illegally is higher so money is not the problem.

Go downtown and talk to the homeless living under plastic sheets and ask them if they want to break into the US for high hopes and dream. But they are already in the US.

Encounter every hard situation with your head up high and ready to fight and you should be fine. Good luck.

I wish I hadn't read the comments...*sigh* it makes me sad about how such a "free" country like America can be so liberated with certain issues but chooses to remain ignorant on other issues that are just as vital as the rest... As a Colombian immigrant to the Untied States I can personally testify to the hardness that is garnering actual citizenship papers. It took 15 years. My parents struggled for 15 years to be able to be seen as somewhat equal to the people of this country and they live in fear of committing any type of offense because they are scared that this "privilege" will be torn for them. They're terrified of getting screwed over and the truth is, they would much rather be in Colombia right now. But they can't; their work is here and it is incredibly difficult to find a job now at their age in our home country. It is true that they have found a way to live here and they do have a decent paying job but at what cost? Please ask yourself this the next time you parade here, trying to make those who have tried feel completely and utterly like shit because what they or what their families' have had to do to survive in a country that feeds of those who are less fortunate. We are grateful for what we have but we will NEVER get back what we lost when we had to leave to be given a chance at life. Remember that the next time you presume you even have the right to tell us to go back to our country. Remember the things we have given up; our dignity, our joy, our faith, and our closeness to be here and know that WE ARE HERE AND WE HAVE JUST AS MUCH OF A RIGHT TO THIS LAND AS YOU DO. Thank you.

I live in Sweden, and we have a number of immigrants that we take in every year, and if there are enough resources we take in more. For a couple of years, you are in the hands of the state. You can't be sent home. Then, you can just go to the police department, fill in some papers and get your passport (citizenship) right away. Immigrants get about 300$ every month, but they can apply for more, and if they have kids they get 200$ per kid. The state also helps them with education, for which they get another 200$. And when they're "ready" they help them get a job. This is how most of Europe takes care of it, why the U.S. has such a complex system I don't know.

Everything from the way they deal with immigrants to health insurance, equality and enviromental issues are so unneccesarily complex. While Europe, some of Australia and in some cases eastern Asia got their marriage equality laws many years ago, the U.S. got them just now. Health insurance is free for everyone, nuclear power stations are banned, nurse jobs are well paid etc. So what if I don't live there, It's not exactly rocket science. I'm just saying that U.S. handles these issues badly, and they're amongst the only first world countries doing it that way.

You know, I don't really wanna argue about immigrants coming over or wanting a better life. But if you think it's okay to leave a CHILD alone, without her parents, without even making sure she would be okay or have the means to survive, that's so screwed up honestly. Immigration basically said a big "screw you" to her when she was just a child and didn't even attempt to help her at all. If strangers had not helped her, where would she be now? What kind of person would she be? Would she had even survived alone? I don't wanna think about that.

They weren't criminals, they wanted a better life for her. The comments in this thread are disgusting.

Most politicians will attest that the system is broken and something needs to be done about it; that's why the Senate passed bipartisan legislation to address immigration in America. We're talking about human beings and their lives are in limbo until politicians who are paid to legislate will simply fix the problem. When we felt we were being overtaxed Patriots broke the law in the 1700s and Blacks used civil disobedience in the 60's.

My mom was asked by my Grandfather when he got his residency in the States, he was the one to fill the paperwork for her. While the same happened for my dad by his mom, and the recently married couple moved. It took 11 years for her to finally get the exam, to which she spent a whole year studying for. She passed it but didn't get the citizenship because my Grandfather had told the state she was legally single when he had filled out the paperwork to petition for her residency so long ago. She was single at the time, mind you, but since it wasn't corrected , they told her she was lying to the state and could not get the citizenship. That was 12 years ago. 3 appeals and a few grands on awful lawyers later: nothing. The system is not fair. She has more than paid for a mistake that was not her own. The system is not fair.

@@stretchyfingers I do educate myself with every passing day,and i said i knew about deportation but didn't deeply feel what people go thru when they are deported until i saw it being represented. Its rather nice if i felt something from a tv show if you ask me

My heart 😭 this is heartbreaking

I'm so proud of what she was able to accomplish despite her circumstances. What an inspiration.

She is adorable, well wishes to her and her family, sorry for her pain. She is a great young lady.

I remember that feeling finding out my dad got deported when I was 10 years old it's a pain that makes your heart drop

The fear she must’ve felt as a child, this is just heartbreaking.

That truly made me emotional. I cant even imagine. I wonder why its so hard to get proper paper work to be a citizen of the states. It takes some people years and so much money. I know I complain about alot of petty things, but Im grateful that I was born here and dont have to deal with this tragic situation.

yes it is very hard to become a citizen. all I know is you need to memorize 100 questions and answers then the people ask you 10 questions. its really sad that this is what society has become.

The reason they don’t is, because papers cost a SHIT ton of money and a SHIT ton of time. The minimum wage in Latin countries is 1 dollar. Two, they don’t have the time because most of them are fleeing due to gangs trying to murder them because of reason that aren’t even the families fault. Three, the education value is less valuable than garbage. Four years at college over there? Congrats now you can be a cleaning lady WITH A DEGREE! Because, universities have no value due to corruption. No one has a future there. Death and starvation is WAY TOO common over there. And Americans are way too concerned about their next Netflix show or What pizza toppings they like because they’re ALLLL privileged rich ass holes; The struggling middle class is a DREAM for most hispanics in Latin countries, a dream they can’t EVERRRR afford to think about.

How can someone be so cruel to say that they're glad someone was deported? "Laws are never to be broken"... What kind of argument is that? If laws were never broken, the American Revolution would have never happened. This would still be England. We'd all still live under monarchy and blacks would not be able to vote in the US. Was it illegal to house Jews in Germany during the Holocaust? You bet it was. Was it the correct thing to do? You bet your ass it was. It's easy to judge people when you aren't in their shoes. Stop assuming everyone is in the same socioeconomic status as you. So many people prefer to risk their lives and cross the border, knowing that they could be deported or killed by the national guard. Why? Because it couldn't be worse than the life they're living. Do you know what it's like not to have access to safe water, food or other basic necessities? What about education? Yes, many people are not educated on their prospects and legality in the US. Is that their fault? No. Just like it's not your fault you're white. Isn't America about the American dream? About coming from nothing and being something? Many people's ancestral background doesn't date back to the pilgrims but to the late 1800s and early 1900s. And to the guy who filled out the papers for his wife, SHE WAS MARRYING AN AMERICAN. That's a much different process than getting papers when you're a poor family coming on a tourist visa.

She is a poor darling. People are suffering all over. Thank you for showing this.

It's terrible that people can just take people away like this. I grew up sometimes rough, points where I lost contact completely with family members I knew. However, I can't quite imagine this pain. I hope her the best.

Fucking awful. How traumatizing that must have been.

It's riduculous that despite being only 14 she was completely left alone b the authorities....what kind of world do we live in where famiies are ripped apart because one area doesn't want people to move there from a bad area....

+AMagicProduction but she was an US citizen so they could have at least put her in foster care (not that that system is any better to be in) as opposed to letting her starve to death.

Natalya Carvajal it’s so much money as well trying to sponsor my aunt and it’s pretty hard that’s why people do it the illegal way because it’s easier

I love that she shared her story about her family I can personally relate to this on a personal level and I'm just so glad she brought this to light.

In my book club, we read her book My Family Divided. It was really sad and it showed us what some children and teens go through. It would be really hard to lose your parents like that. We realized we are all so lucky! She is very inspiring.

I loved how this season touched on this issue hopefully the heartless ppl can see what’s really goin on so sad😞

All these racist comments make me scared for this country. No wonder things like Ferguson are happening.

Something told me not to read the comments, it's so heartbreaking. They're more saddening than the video.

she’s incredibly strong and what makes this so sad/scary is that this is not a unique story, this happens frequently. i want to live in a world where families aren’t separated and where individuals can live freely. It’s not fair.

wow this breaks my heart

the one thing humanity has historically been really good at is being shitty to eachother.

How ignorant can people get? I see so many comments here from people who were born in the U.S who never had to struggle like SOOO many undocumented people have struggled and there they are judging them saying "Ugh well just get documented duuhh!!". IT IS NOT THAT EASY. Please don't criticize what you don't understand.

***** And THIS^^ ladies and gentlemen is what I mean by IGNORANT people. You moron, I am talking SPECIFICALLY of families and people who have struggled with getting documented and getting deported. And I am assuming you think I am a white girl who has everything in life? Lmao. No I am of Hispanic heritage, my entire family is from Mexico and they have ALL struggled their entire lives from this. We have no money,and it is extremely hard for us to find suitable jobs to survive here. So please FUCK OFF, you dont know everything and you surely are clueless as to what people on our position go though so go fuck yourself.

Illegal immigrants are treated like royalty compared to the LEGAL immigrants of 100-125 years ago. That was STRUGGLE. No food stamps, no social services, no ESL, no free education, no identity politics, no immigrant right's groups, etc. No racist immigration lobbyists like La Raza deceiving people. They had to assimilate and learn english on their own. Over the past year, the USA has GRACIOUSLY allowed 60,000 illegal Central Americans, many carrying diseases, to be dispersed in all 50 states. Disease-carrying kids getting FREE education, shelter and culturally-tolerant food. No quarantine at all. If a Polish or Italian immigrant circa 1903 tested positive for tuberculosis, then they'd be quarantined and most likely deported. Illegals and post-1965 immigrants don't realize how GOOD they have it compared to the immigrants of 100 years ago who were the builders of much of the innovation during the 20th century.

LaLaGrunge if illegal immigrants were treated like royalty then why the fuck do they get deported for trying to get money for their own fuckin family huh??? if you don't know the shut the fuck up you dumb idiot you have no clue what they go through so shut the fuck up idiot👊👊👊 while all these homeless white folks asking for money in the street think about.....yall have papers and can work in a fast food restaurant or lil jobs yall are just so dumb to relize what yall have so don't say that illegal immigrants are treated as royalty👊👊

Got to hear her story today along with about 700 hundred others at San Jose State. Very informative and very moving story with all that she is been through. Had a chance to talk with her after briefly as well. Great actress even better person. Even though it’s a sad situation it’s encouraging to see that she made the best of what life she had left after they took her family from her. She spoke about her cousin not being as fortunate and having a prison sentence. It’s crazy but what she said is true. It could happen to anyone of us regardless if you are a citizen or not.

Thank you for speaking out and sharing your story. I have really enjoyed your character on Jane the Virgin!

I'm tired of the comments of "get out of here", "go back to your country", "become legal or fix your homeland". You people have no idea of the complexity of the problem, these countries have decades and decades of corruption that cannot be undone with just another official in the government. So many people have died "fixing" their country, and others escape with their families to a better life. Those who judge without knowing their story sickens me. I beg you to inform yourself why people immigrate to other countries and the U.S, they do it for survival.

I can relate to this on such a deep level that it hurts so much. Bravo to you Diane Guerrero for being so strong!!

Wow.. I love that she talks about her concern of what her parents are going through emotionally and mentally. That’s true love, when your loved ones’ experiences and feelings are just as important to you as your own, if not more.

when she was about to cry i literally started crying u can hear it in her voice how hard it was for her

crying.. this is so sad
