@Bill I agree that the mexican government should be fixed but Mexico is the Wild West. The corruption is in every layer of its infrastructure. The only way to fix the Mexican government is to overthrow it. Also the US government benefits greatly from it being the lawless place it is. For your second question Americans fail to realize it’s not just to Mexicans coming to the US through Mexico. Mexico is simply a vessel for every country below it.
I dont live in America or mexico and was very happy to see Tommy speak on this with no judgement as I'm very curious about the immigration thru the 2 country and it's really hard to find unbiased reporting on the topic
Heart breaking when he asked if you were going to kill them. My uncle was left for dead in a ditch on his way to America. I pray for all those people. Life's not sweet but it doesn't hurt trying to better your situation. Thanks for bringing some good light to this situation. May god bless you Tommy!
Yeah, if your first response in your native language is "You're not going to kill us?" when someone pulls up to help you, you know shit's bad in Venezuela. I lived in Ecuador for a bit in 2019, and it felt like I met more Venezuelanos que Ecuatorianos. La situacion en Venezuela no es bueno, obviamente.
@@buttdunk1 YEAH I watched a vlog of someone in Colombia and half the people he ran into were from Venezuela. Can't blame someone for trying to,make life a little bit better. Only the people who have experienced it will understand. People who hate immigrants are just ignorant to their situations.
This video really changed my perspective of live as a born american, we really underestimate how lucky we truly are to be born in a place with clean water, food and tens of thousands of open jobs
And yet, there're still tons of people who swear America is the worst place ever, blame everything on "America", don't appreciate the fact that there's tens of thousands of opportunities and jobs and if they just got off their ass and did something they could easily improve their wealth situation and lives. They rather get free handouts, dwell in their addictions, sit on their asses all day and play oppression games, these people should be stripped of their American citizenship and have it given to any aspiring foreigner who could simply do a little better than them.
Yes but we also are gonna colapse and lose all the privilidges we have if we keep letting democrats and republicans create fake controversy to keep us divided … they literally sanctioned a human trafficking route and then made it illegal to house someone just for shelter. Unbelievable how the democratic politicians can do anything but if a normal citizens wants to help they can be jailed for 5-10 years
@@TommyGMcGee haha all jokes aside you should really look into it , you’re good at going into new environments and cutting to the point. I think even Live-streaming something like this once could be interesting aswell ! Love from the UK.
I like how Tommy doesn’t just tell the story, but always puts himself in other’s shoes and considers their perspectives. That kind of empathy is hard to come by these days.
Tommy! As a Mexican American from Milwaukee who’s family immigrated from Piedras Negras I appreciate you! Good luck on your constant success! And thanks for spreading info on places most would never travel to in the world!
Got balls. That's really unfortunate about those 2 guys. At the same time that border patrol that was driving back and forth definitely knew what was going on and came right back after you guys left. Thankfully you guys didn't get in trouble but unfortunate ending for the 2.
They don’t understand this bro. Only people who know someone or has pass by this knows what’s good. It’s crazy af. Literally crazy ass fucking experience.
That man was 100% correct! We need to come together and stop the government forced decisiveness, or nothing will change. Unfortunately corruption over runs the highest levels.
You young ASF huh, none of that ain't ever gonna happen lol people ain't gonna come together other then just march with some signs 😂 this machine is never gonna die, only way if it rots from within enough
Man, found your channel and Ive been up since 5am going down the rabbit hole of divulging in ALL your videos! You have such a GOOD heart ..and your pretty easy on the eyes too haha 😮 ... Keep doing what your doing we need more compassionate people like you
You are a great dude man, I’m from Wisconsin too but I’m Mexican American and you made me tear up talking about how lucky we are to have good circumstances, much love brother
From Wisconsin to,everywhere people are from here,good luck in life and be safe,just watched a show about the water and pipa trucks,I like a Mexican women so hopefully it works out
So if you're a Mexican-American and my people came here from Germany Ireland Switzerland and I do have some Native American blood what do you call me then?? Your American dude... with Mexican descent
@@Proteinfarts1999 yeah you're Mexican-American if you came here legally from Mexico and became a US citizen. you are not a Mexican-American if you're born here in the US from a Mexican-American you're just American with Mexican descent.. You get it??? I'm proud of my Heritage but you don't see me taking up the whole Top Line of a paper to let everybody know what continent I came from...
Little story, my dad was a “coyote” the time he was ever with me was before he left to Mexico to bring people.. people he never ended up bringing back because he was found dead next to a river and my speculation was that it was a cartel. This video is uniquely amazing
Only thing I gotta say about this video is that not all coyotes are good people like the guy said at first it was for money and later came in his caring for helping. A majority of them are part of the cartel and tell these people they need double the money or they won’t let them pass or kill them and rob them. Thank you for doing a story on this and thank you for blessing the guys you helped cuz like one of those guys friend they’re dead meat and they’ll never make it far even though they payed them.
this story hit close to home thank you so much for what you’ve done for these people and shedding some light on the situation🙏🏽 i know they will always remember your kindness. may you receive blessings tenfold
This was absolutely beautiful your Spanish and how you just have a natural ability to connect with people! please stay safe and keep doing what you're doing!!! much love, Big Dogs Gotta Eat!
I have been watching your videos for a few days now. I have watched many documentary channels on this platform but you sir, you are one of the few people who do these interviews to truly help people, not to capitalize on their sorrow. Thank you for buying those men some food. 💖
Same here my parents arrive to the US with 7 dollars left in their pockets and now 22 years later they own a tile company and have 5 locations which blows my mind. Just makes me realize I can’t ever complain about my life I was blessed into a hard working family and hopefully one day my parents can get their citizenship.
The American Dream isn’t real. It was made by the government so peasants can live without being depressed/miserable and always have a “dream” to chase.
Being an immigrant myself and crossing the boarder at the age of 7 years old, I still remember crossing just like it was yesterday. Literally a life changing experience. Shout out to you for documenting the risks we’re willing to take to come work our ass off in the “American Dream”
Entitlement what makes you guys better than everybody else that paid thousands and thousands of dollars of dollars and waited for a long time to come to this country and you illegals think you can just do whatever you want
bro watching you speak Spanish fluently and just the way you speak with people is awesome man I found you from baylan's videos a long time ago and have watched you and your channel grown so much since bro and it's awesome to see you deserve it man this was for sure one of my favorite videos keep grinding big dog 💪
Fr the best journalist out here, your ability to give us a look into the lives that most people don’t think much about is remarkable. Keep going never let anything get in your way
This video deserves millions of views for the topics covered in such a short amount of time. My heart goes out to good people in South America looking for a better life away from crime and poverty!
I follow you and I love your approach to all man kind. Your super humble and very generous to people have nothing. Your truly an inspiration to everyone.
Here early. Love the videos brother. I got out of the military recently. And your videos help so much with some of my mental health issues. Love you man. You have been a blessing to me in my life!
Damn bro u came to my city to cover this! Thats crazy, never expected to stumble across a documentary that was filmed in my hometown. That's awesome thanks Tommy and crew!! 🤘
Yep my dad will always take me to Michoacán, Mexico 🇲🇽 when I was young up until I was 18 so that I can appreciate what he could barely afford here in the USA and stop complaining abt things that were expensive!!! Till this day I appreciate everything I have and I’m a real humble guy!!
Bro it makes no sense how you have not blown up yet you have been grinding for months with quality videos doing real stuff and really shedding an eye on things that other people overlook everyday
One of my favorite RU-vidrs now because of the craziest risks you take to get this amazing footage. Well done bro, continue to do what you do and sharing these ways of life from all over. Makes me feel blessed to be an American. Praying for these boys and everyone’s journey. God bless love from Florida 🇺🇸
Bro this video was crazy, I'm mexican (born in us) and I wasn't aware how bad it is. You should definitely make a part 2. My best wishes for the 2 Venezuelan travelers
@@holydevil1909 lot of the footage is tough to watch, some thermals showing men dropping a toddler and baby from the top of the wall over into America, others of a semi filled with 50 dead, finding children shoes along the way, people floating in the river face down of all ages. Record drugs, human smuggling, etc. The border facilities that are supposed to house a few hundred migrants are filled with thousands. They are packed together tighter than sardines in horrible living conditions.
Yo Tommy I know u won’t see this but your such a genuine person and we need more people like you my grandmas a immigrant it’s people like you that helped my family I love your videos keep making these fire videos and I love you bro thanks for sharing your story🙂
The fact that you can bring out these quite honestly breathtaking and eye opening stories shows just how incredible you are as an interviewer. You seem to have a very calming aura as even hardened criminals are put off by your laid back attitude. What I’m seeing here reminds me of the early days of Vice when they went to Iraq, Afghanistan during the height of the conflicts. What you’re doing here is extremely important investigative journalism
Thinking about how my mom and her siblings came here makes me cry everytime i couldnt imagine sending my brothers on tht journey at such a young age and pray tht make it to where they get dropped off is so heartbreaking
Love the type of channel this channel evolved too, and tommys reporting skills are A1 wouldn’t be surprised if in a few years this channel is as big as vice. All the power to you guys and shout out to you guys for doing what you guys could to keep those people warm! 🙏🙏🙏
Brother, you have no idea how lucky you are to have been born there. A lot of people there take it for granted, but there are others that would risk there life's to have what you have. I live in Mexico, and I'm an engineer and me and my friends (who are engineers as well) dream about going to the USA one day. It's hard, but I'm still grateful to be here because those guys you met, they have it worse, Venezuela is just a deathbed, zero hopes of surviving there. It's crazy how we all live in the same world and its people making people suffer. We live on earth, and humans are the only species that pays to live on earth. I think these documents are awesome. If they're story surprised you, you should live one month in Mexico as a normal mexican citizen so you can get the full experience.
This is honestly one of the best channels I’ve viewed. Such great coverage on controversial topics that no one dares to touch. Risking your safety to uncover the truth of people’s day to day life
Very pure video and awesome intentions. I feel like patrol saw them cross and cross back the same day with the camera recording and were low key watching them. They may normally never round up as locals said but when cameras are involved they’re forced to work. They followed them, watched their interactions, & saw who they were conversing with. Had to do what they had to do. Wishing the best for everyone involved with this video 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Damn man I was rooting for them to make it to Chicago where I work we have a lot of illegal people that work for contractors getting under paid which is bullshit but my dad was a immigrant when he came and met my mom I'm very thankful to be where I am now
Amazing video. You are my new favorite RU-vidr, telling peoples lives that are not that usual and help us to know about the world and the other parts of society
Just recently stumbled upon your channel and I appreciate you doing a video like this. Much respect brotha. Hopefully one day we’ll see the day black, brown, white, all races stand together
Man your page came across my feed. I got nothing but respect! And subscribing! I wish we could help these people out. United together we will push forward in life. God bless!
Dang, I was definitely on the ‘no one crosses the border illegally’ side of the argument before this video, but this will make me reevaluate my position. Great video as always!
Omg rozaati you're one of my favourite people in one way I practice wheelie although I don't have a fancy good bike I still keep going mainly because of your inspiration so thank you rozatti
Tommy my respect for you brother! Keep talking for the people that dont have a voice really soon you will rewarded because you are one of gods soliders!
Dude said I think we all need to move forward to be united that hit fr there’s so many people here In America that hate them but they just wanna be united it’s crazy
Who cares?, try aiming a gun at something other than a sunman if you guys care so much... music with black people on the covers sure as shit ain't telling these kids to stop saying it.
Early gang wya, another banger it just keeps getting better from here i’m really invested in watching what comes next since i have some knowledge on coyotes since my own father was in the same position crossing people in his early teen years!
