we try to stop terrorism, but we still got terrorists here livin’ in the USA, the big CIA, The Bloods, and The Crips, and the KKK.” This verse, specifically, is very interesting. “Where is the Love” was released in 2003; post 9/11. The events that occurred on 9/11 were very gruesome for the United States. The lyrics emphasises the evil that is terrorism, and how the U.S is sending troops overseas to stop the terrorism in other countries even though there are still terrorists that still reside in the U.S.
Immigrations has always been an important topic but became a big debatable topic today as the present president has made immigration his signature issues, specifically, the undocumented immigrants. Everybody must’ve crossed this question in their mind, who are these people? Other people can easily define them as foreigners that came in the states without the permission of the U.S government. Some may see them as a threat on the society, and they take away the jobs from Americans. But, these 11 million unauthorized immigrants are just like any other immigrant that took the risk to move to a different country with the hope of having a successful life.
Death of youth, Collapse of economy and hate of government are the major effect of illegal immigration. An estimated 11.5 – 12 million foreign nationals are living in the US, according to the Pew Hispanic Center. To solute this problem there are four realistic solutions. Providing suitable jobs for youth is one of them.
It's purpose however is clear, it sets up a unique candidate with memorable traits. Hyperbole: An over exaggeration for effect on the audience. Bernie sanders uses hyperbole when talking about his plans to deal with terror groups.
I have chosen to do my persuasive essay on Does Illegal Immigrants Harm the U.S. Economy? Many Americans believes that the illegal immigrants came here to the united states to take jobs away from the Americans. Furthermore, the Americans look at the illegal immigrants as terrorists or invaders. They often get called aliens by law enforcement and I.C.E. As far back as I can remember, (which was back in 1995) when I first started seeing the illegal immigrants, it seemed like there were not a whole lot of them.
Terrorism as stated in the Oxford English Dictionary is “The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.” and calculated is “done with full awareness of the likely consequences.” From this we see that a calculated terrorist is one who made use of violence against civilians, fully understanding the consequences, in order to achieve a political goal. Next we can look into Brown’s motives for his crimes, James N. Gilbert lists 3 points as to what motivates some terrorists “1.Society is sick and cannot be cured by half measures of reform. 2.The state is in itself violent and can be countered and overcome only by violence.
The Red Scare in particular made the entirety of American Society anti immigration. The Red Scare was the growing fear of the U.S. having a rise in Communism. There was also a large concern about the growing amount of immigrants coming into the U.S.. To combat this the U.S. established the Emergency Quota Act in 1921 the act established a limit on the number of immigrants accepted from each country. The U.S. would take 3 percent of the population of residents from the origin country into the U.S. each year.
The 18th amendment was supposed to eliminate the “evil” in human society, but in reality crime increased and led to a major downfall in society. Organized Crime in the 1920s paved the way
Terrorists have always been a threat to this great nation, but the events that occurred in Washington D.C. and New York on that fateful day showed many Americans the reality of what terrorists are capable of. Even though the hijackers on 9/11 had entered the country legally, albeit under less stringent immigration laws, the fear that other terrorists might possibly be exploiting weaknesses in our border security is ever present. While many people fear these terrorists entering into our country from the south, Alan Bersin, former Commissioner of The U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency, says that the biggest threat actually comes from the north. In 2011, Bersin told reporters that the CBP “has recorded more cases of people with suspected terrorist backgrounds or links to terror organizations entering the U.S. from Canada than from Mexico.” (Mora).
Immigration can sometimes be good but also very bad. Today millions of immigrants are getting killed, beat up, or put in jail, for the color of their skin or what country they're from. The worst things you can think about is what’s happening to immigrants. I feel that immigration is bad. I don’t think that people from other countries need to stay in their country.
Major countries, such as the United States, have encountered numerous debates about undocumented immigration. The act of immigration is considered to be confederate, and causes a rampage to terminate the deed. Illegal immigrants across national borders violate the immigration laws. Although, it’s a problem in the United States there are various Americans that don’t see immigrants as a harmless situation. However, there are three possible solutions such as the U.S. government updating the deportation, ending the war on drugs, and the government addressing trade policies that affect the economies of South American countries.
I think that terrorism should be second or third on their list not first. Drugs and more common crimes should be first because of their more frequency compared to terrorism. (NCADD, para. 4 & 5) (Johnston, 2015, graph) The FBI should focus more on how to prevent drug crime. Many policies were put into effect because of how massive the terrorist attack of 9-11 were.
Being an Immigrant can lead to physical and emotional strains, whether it involves searching for health care, leaving your family behind, or fighting to becoming a legal citizen. Cesar Millan and “Anna” are two people that struck my sight on illegal immigration, this helped me see in other people’s eyes on what they had to go through to get here and to do what they had to do that could get them killed. Their stories and their connections I wrote in three main categories that I saw with illegal immigration to: Pathways to citizenship, Health care and, Family. Cesar Millan pathway to citizenship, some people say that he just “jumped over the border” but he couldn’t just do that, he is someone that turned from the negatives from coming to the U.S. and made a positive comeback using resiliency.
B. [Sub-point #2:] Everyone deserves a second chance. The ideal of amnesty
A problem that we have had in the country for a very long time is; people coming into this country illegally. It is causing over population, loss in jobs, stolen taxpayer resources, and an increase in crimes, even terrorism. The best way to handle this problem is for every employer to check every single employees birth certificate, citizenship, or green card to make sure that they can be in America legally. Whoever should not be here, needs to be deported back to their own country. Then this would fix all the problems illegal immigrants cause.
