Pris les culottes à terre! / Busted!

La patrouille des douanes est responsable de surveiller qui et quoi entrent à la frontière USA-Mexique. Que ce soit un immigrant illégal ou de la drogue, ils sont aux aguets.

Le Los Angeles Times a publié un recueil en ligne d'arrestations mémorables. Comme vous le constaterez, plusieurs ont de l'imagination à revendre.

U.S. Customs and Border Patrols are responsible to keep an eye of who and what enter at the USA-Mexico border. Whether it is an illegal immigrant or drug, they keep a sharp eye.

The L. A. Times newspaper published an online photo collection of memorable border busts. As you can see it yourself, many have a wild imagination.

Un costume de mauvais goût… / A doubtful Halloween costume

Depuis quelques semaines, les journaux américains en parle de ce fameux costumes. Mis en marché initialement dans les magasins de grandes surfaces tel que Target et Walgreen, il a été retirer récemment sous la pression du public et de diverses associations. Mais de quel costume parle-t-on?

C’est un costume orange, comme celui que portent des prisonniers américains. Le costume fait une connection directe entre le fait d’être un immigrant illégal et d’être un criminel. Plusieurs petits commercants continuent d’offrir ce costume qui amène tout une controverse. Plusieurs voient en ce costume une blague, d’autres le voient comme un élément discriminatoire.

Et vous, qu’en pensez-vous?

Since a few weeks, American newspapers talk about this infamous costume. Put on sale initially in superstores such as Target and Walgreen, it was removed under the population and organizations pressures. But which costume are we talking about here?

It is an orange costume, like the one similar to what wear American prisoners. It implies the direct connection from being an illegal immigrant and being a criminal. Many little stores still offer the costume that is bringing a whole controversy in USA. Many see a funny joke in it while others see it as a discriminatory element.

And you, what do you think?
