Average customer review:Product Description
Watch as Mexicans illegally cross the border, without a care in the world. The government has ignored this issue for far too long, and it has become so easy to cross that somewhere between 12 to 20 million illegal aliens now live in the U.S., with current talk by the government of rewarding them with citizenship for their illegal deeds. Undoubtedly, many of these illegal aliens are hardened criminals from Mexico, who have come to the U.S. and set-up shop, escaping their own government's wrath. Watch as U.S. citizens near the border describe the mayhem--the gunfights and drug peddling with which they must daily face. Hear of how some Americans are left to compete with the Mexican laborers at the depressed wages that they'll work. View the lands surrounding the borders, and the filth and waste left in the area surrounding them. Listen to people around the border-areas describe the horrors that they must daily face, and how their real estate has become practically worthless as a result of the illegal aliens moving in all around them. While the government may have abandoned the American people for so long, you'll also see some brave and fearless people who are working to protect the border, doing the government's job since they won't. This is a documentary that every American who cares about its borders needs to see--and even those Americans who don't--as it portrays the truth of what is occurring, not the made-for-TV nonsense we hear. This is a DVD that you won't soon forget.

The best documentary available on immigration...
This is a basic but well-produced documentary that introduces the viewer to the oft-ignored realities that many U.S. citizens are forced to deal with while living near the (porous) Southwestern U.S. border. I would recommend this without hesitation to those who are looking to get others to recognize the dangers of a allowing a nation to tolerate a massive, demographically very dissimilar flow of migrants. I would really like to see it shown on college campuses.
It stands out because it addresses two important issues that are ignored in mainstream immigration discussions. These issues are, 1) a relatively concise explanation of a certain group's disproportionate support of lax immigration policies that disadvantage the majority and 2) the far-reaching demographic consequences that will permanently alter the character of the country.
This film provides an outlet for the thoughts of concerned U.S. citizens who have to deal with the reality of a massive influx of foreign migrants into their communities. It is relatively unbiased, but people who don't see the value of preserving the U.S.A.'s demographic, environmental, and economic integrity will be disappointed by the lack of focus on the migrants and their enablers. This will suit most level-headed folks just fine, as there is already an extremely disproportionate focus given to these perspectives by the mainstream news providers.
Highly recommended and many thanks to its creators for getting to the meat of the argument and providing a vehicle for average folk who have to deal with this problem.
PS: regarding the two previous negative reviews, there is nothing racist about this documentary, although one can't prove that to the detractors because that term is meaningless anyways.
"Must see" documentary about illegal immigration
"The line in the sand" is the best documentary about illegal immigration I have seen yet. In my opinion, every American should have to watch it in order to know what is really going on. Lot of people only care about short-term benefits such as cheap labor but totally forget or ignore the problems and long-term effects associated with illegal immigration. I highly recommend this DVD.
Buyer Beware: This is White Nationalist Propaganda
I expected to gain some objective insight into how people on the border are living with illegal immigration. But it didn't take long to understand that this film is white nationalist propaganda. Don't waste your time, unless you're a neo-nazi.
