David Horsey: Deporting Illegal Immigrants
Author David Horsey created this illustration with the intention of showing us how ICE is deporting people who are not a threat to our society rather than targeting the people who are truly causing trouble. Horsey is in fact successful with getting his point across that immigrants who have created a life and home for themselves in the land of opportunity are now being deported and dealt with as if they were criminals. After Trump's presidential campaign which was fueled by immigration, he has followed through with his promises, and has changed the strategies of how deporting illegal immigrants is carried out. That include ICE has been performing raids throughout the country raiding homes and deporting illegal immigrants back to

    Will Donald Trump’s wall be as magnificent as the Great Wall of China or can Trump even achieve the construction of the his great wall? Last Week Tonight with John Oliver is a television program that covers current political news and current events with humor. In the segment, “Border Wall” (cite), Oliver discusses Donald Trump’s idea of his border wall in Mexico. With satirical support and evidence, it is questionable whether or not Trump’s wall is achievable. Considering all the reasons Trumps has decided to propose a wall versus the cost and requirements needed to build the wall, it is concluded that Trump’s wall is inefficient and will provided no useful services, but instead create problematic situations. Therefore, Oliver arguing that Trump’s great wall isn’t as competent as he makes it seem.…

    Henry Payne's cartoon "For Illegal Immigrants by Illegal Immigrants" shows us the Irony of Donald Trump wanting to build a Wall/ Fence, to keep illegal immigrants out of the united states. Payne's cartoon is ironic because Trump wants to get rid of immigrants but yet immigrants are the ones that do the dirty jobs other legal people don’t want to do. Trump wants illegal immigrants to build the very wall that will keep the out of a country that offers liberty and many opportunities for all kinds of people. Payne’s cartoon has bias against the fact that Donald Trump Wants to build a wall to keep immigrants out of the United States. Payne’s cartoon will help my paper because it tells people that are in favor of the wall being built that without…

    The conditions that some immigrants endure while in the US are unimaginable and should be challenged. The work of Not1More is especially inspiring because they do not limit activism to protest or strikes but embrace the power of art to motivate others. History has demonstrated that the US is built on diversity and therefore many of our ancestors who could have endured the unlivable conditions that individuals in the detention centers currently face. As Maria Marroquin states in a poem,”…skin color is merely an accident, and what really matters is invisible.” Foley has examined that white skin does not guarantee property rights to whiteness nor does being Caucasian and until there is no clear indicators to what classifies an individual as White the non-Whites will experience prejudice, discrimination, and…

    On June 15, 2012, President Barack Obama announced an executive action that changed the lives of thousands of people. The Deferred Action of Arrival Children (DACA) was initiated in the United States.

    Immigration is not a human right, it is not a solution for a problem either, and immigrants who are denied admission into another country cannot claim it is violating their human rights because there are other options rather than emigrating. The article “Justice in Immigration” written by David Miller explains that nations have the ability to decide if they want to help immigrants and if they choose not to, it is not a violation of human rights. The article argues that refugees, people who are trying to get into another country since their human rights are under attacked, should be allowed to migrate, but to become a citizen or to even receive help is completely up to the other states. The next argument is the case…

    nt, Barack Obama once said- “ For more than 200 years, our tradition of welcoming immigrants from around the world has given us a tremendous advantage over other nations. It’s kept us youthful, dynamic, and entrepreneurial.” America is the melting pot of the world full of diversity and curiosity. After all, America is a nation of immigrants, which at some point all had one goal in life in which was to make it to the land of opportunities. America is referred to the land of opportunities for one reason and that is because it offers those with dreams opportunities to pursue them. Many of these people come to the United States to make a better life for their families and even themselves. So why should they be living in constant fear of being deported if they haven't committed a crime or even possess a criminal record. Immigrants with no criminal record or serious offenses should be allowed to work…

    Today our nation is faced with many problems and one that seems to stand out is an immigration reform. Many of those who reside in the U.S may not see it as a big issue, but in reality it really is. An immigration reform would not only help our nation’s struggling economy but it will also allow our government to keep better track of its residents given us a sense of higher security. Those who oppose such reform fear it will only serve to decrease job opportunities due to the increase in completion for places and ultimately burry us deeper in this troubling economy but with an immigration reform, there would be a stop to the separation of families, a boost to the economy and nation’s security will also have its benefits.…

    There has been an issue for several years in the United States, and yet it hasn’t been resolved. While the government is looking for a solution, there have been so many families that are getting separated just because they are deporting too many people. Some states that have made their own laws which are laws that are absolutely unconstitutional, such as the one from Arizona the SB-1070, which that law allows the police within that state, to stop and interrogate any person who appears to be an immigrant. They can be identified by their skin color, and their way of talking. That law is unconstitutional because the police are judging because of their appearance. The government cares about getting the immigrants out of this country without considering that they are separating families and that without the immigrants, this country wouldn’t be as strong economically. In the Star Spangled Banner, there’s a part where it says “O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?” what really captures my attention was where it said that this country is the home of the brave. Many immigrants cross the desert; they don’t ride in a car or anything like that. They run day and night, hot and cold, many people who come to this country are brave enough to cross the desert without stopping, knowing that hundreds of immigrants die trying to come to this country. All they have with them, throughout the trip, is a gallon of water. The desert reaches over 100 degrees during the day and during night the temperature drops under 80 degrees. For people who risk their lives just to get to this country, I consider them brave so by what the Star Spangled Banner says, this is their home too, because they are brave. That’s one of the reason why I’m against immigrants deportation.…
