Fairness

Life is not fair. You can read about a man that was brought illegally to the US when he was young. As a 9 year old he did not have responsibility for being here illegally. When he grew up and knew better, he lied to become a police officer. Now he is being deported to Mexico.

This is a moral puzzle.

My first reaction is that he broke the law and he has to pay. But then I try to imagine the whole situation, and remember that in 1992 the US and the Mexican governments agreed to start a new relationship, NAFTA, but left out completely the very cases we are confronted with now.

What is fair is that the citizens of both countries, Mr. Oscar Ayala-Cornejo's peers, get together and discuss his case. That will not happen, and I declare that unfair.
