Producers of Walk The Line Reveal What it Took to Film Chinese Migrants Going to US Illegally
Channel News Asia ^ | 26 May 2024 | Derrick A Paulo, Wei Du, Jonathan Chia, Andersen Xia

Late last year, a CNA crew travelled to North and South America to document the journeys of Chinese citizens crossing borders as illegal immigrants. The team behind Walk The Line now shares how the series was made.

In Ecuador’s capital city, Quito, there can be found a guest house catering almost exclusively for Chinese travellers. Last December, when it also accommodated a film crew from CNA, the usual suspects were rather concerned.

“As soon as we checked in and the people in the guest house knew that we were journalists, … people were tense. They’re like, ‘Why are there journalists here?’” recalled senior producer Jonathan Chia. The Chinese guests were on edge because of what they were doing: migrating to the United States illegally.

People were squeezing through the gap right in front of the crew. “To our surprise, it was pretty easy for them,” said Faddly. “Just walk through it, and you’ve made it, you’re in the US now.”

Alex Jones is crazy. Certifiably so.

That he said rational things 20 years ago parroting what people were saying 30 years ago is incidental.

Alex Jones was not the first to say it, so you really should not act like he gets any credit for it. If there is to be any specificity about it, it’s a form of plagiarism.

A local Parks & Rec department could build and maintain a better barrier.

Pathetic.

Set up hunter's blinds a hundred yards or so from the wall. Man them (or woman them < /sarc >) with volunteer snipers. pick off each adult male who makes it through. Space catapults every quarter mile or so, to return the corpses to Mexico.
