Central Americans know all about Mexico's reputation before they cross the border. That doesn't stop them. At El Carmen Frontera, Guatemalan immigration officials wait for the next busload of deportees. "I don't believe this will solve the problem," says one of them, with some reason.

Chillicothe's fortunes typically mirror those of the rest of the country. When a busload of TIME journalists traveling across the country on Route 50 visited the town four years ago, its economy was booming (even though residents were wary about trusting their good fortune).

And the fact that Diallo, who hailed from the African nation of Guinea, lied on his application for political asylum, falsely claiming he was fleeing persecution in Mauritania. Then if all else fails, lash out at Sharpton and the busload of semi-professional protesters he imports from New York City each day to chant "No justice, no peace! No justice, no peace!" in the park across the street from the courthouse. Harp on everything except this: why in New York City and other cities across America, some white cops look...
