¿Cuál es su opinión de la manifestación de Donald Trump en Kansas City?

Alberto Flores
“Estuvo mal, él nunca quiso a los mexicanos y si hubo peleas fue por lo mismo. Estados Unidos está compuesto de mexicanos y está mal que ahora alguien que quiere ser presidente nos quiera sacar del país.”

“It was wrong, he (Trump) never liked Mexicans and if there were fights was for that reason. The United States is made up of Mexicans and it is not right that someone who wants to be president wants us out of the country.”

“Es triste ver eso. Mucha gente no tiene voz en la política y ver toda la gente que lo está apoyando no me parece bien.”

“It is sad to see that. Many people have no voice in politics and see all the people who are supporting him (Trump) does not seem right.”

Vania Soto
“La razón por la que fui fue porque sentí que tenía que representar mi familia que es inmigrante, fui como un ejemplo para que la gente vea que es algo por que luchar. Al estar ahí si se notaba que todo estaba muy desorganizado, grabé todo lo que estaba pasando para que la gente que no quiso ir o tenían miedo que vieran lo que pasaba.
Yo se que no era correcto que la gente estuviera en la calle mientras pasaban los carros pero con tanto policía podían haber hecho algo diferente. Habían niños en la protesta que también les echaron espray de pimienta; fue un desmadre.”
“The reason I went was because I felt I had to represent my family who is immigrant- I went as an example for people to see that it is something to fight for. Being there you could tell everything was very disorganized, I recorded everything that was happening so people who did not want to go or were afraid to go saw what was happening.
I know it was not right that people were on the street as cars passed but the police could have done something different. There were children in the protest who also got pepper spray; it was a chaos.”

“Inicialmente fui con la intención de protestar, pero cuando llegué había tanta tensión en el aire que decidí observar. Mientras esperaba en la línea me llamaron mojada, perdedora … había una gran cantidad de negatividad de ambas partes y mucho odio.
Dentro del edificio el odio era tan pesado que apenas podía soportarlo. Puedo decir sinceramente que derramé lágrimas porque yo no podía creer lo que estaba pasando a mi alrededor e incluso tome un momento para orar que nada malo pasara.”

“I initially went with the intention of protesting but when I got there was so much tension in the air that I decided to observe. While I waited in line I was called a wet back, a loser… there was a lot of negativity from both sides and a lot of hate.
Inside the building the hate was so thick I could hardly stand it. I can honestly say I shed tears because l could hardly believe what was going on all around me and even took a moment to pray that nothing bad would happen.”
