I recently saw a similar story played out in the lackluster propaganda piece Day Without a Mexican. It's basically the story of a rancher who forms a strong friendship with an illegal alien. The INS (you can substitute this for minutemen or whoever) being the evil force that they are, shoot and kill this Mexican. What ensues is a very PO'ed Tommy Lee Jones avenging his friend's death by forcing the INS agent to bury him in his homeland.

It sounds awesome.

Saw the review of this on Ebert & Roeper. Looks really, really good. And when Tommy Lee Jones is on top of his game, he's great.

The INS finally does their job and now they have to bury the clown? Bah.

What does this have to do with Long Island?

The INS is supposed to kill people?!

The INS is supposed to kill people?!

Yup!

Well, no. But they are supposed to track down illegal aliens. And I doubt that they INS agent walked into the room while the guy was busy feeding homeless children or something and just blew him without any warning or reason whatsoever.

Everything.
