It cannot be argued that Mexican immigration is an uncommon occurrence within the United States. As recorded by the Pew Research Center on Mexican immigrants in the United States, more than one half of the Mexican immigrants in the country are unauthorized. The Department of Homeland Security estimates that as of 2010, 11.4 million unauthorized aliens reside within the country. Of the 11.4 million, an estimated 6.7 million of those illegal immigrants are of Mexican descent. (DHS, 2010).

Joaquin entered the drug business as a teenager and later became in charge of the Sinaloa cartel. “He shops and ships by some estimates more than half of all the cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine and marijuana that come into the United States”(Penn). Many argue that El Chapo is a really bad person that only does a lot of harm to the citizens in Mexico, but what most don't know is that he actually helps some of them.

Pablo Escobar was born in 1949 in Colombia to a father was a peasant farmer and mother who was a school teacher (Thompson, 1996).
