The Importance Of Violent Immigrants Into The United States

Illegal immigration to the U.S. is out of control. Almost 20% of the world’s international migrants flock to a nation that consists of less than 5% of the world’s population. This is a huge threat to our security. Some people believe the threat is miniscule, because illegal immigrants commit crime at the same or a lower rate than native-born Americans, and it is unfair to deny a large group of people citizenship because of the crimes of a few. Law

A lot of immigrants who go to another country cause a lot of criminal activity such as drug trafficking, prostitution, and identity theft. According to the Center for Immigration Studies, another 23 percent, more than 43,000 illegal aliens, were convicted of drug offenses (Gemma, Peter B.). Out of all the drug offenses that is a lot of charges just for illegal aliens as a specific category. Immigration isn’t something that has just recently occurred in the world. It is something that has been going on for as long as people can remember. Immigration isn’t something that is going to stop. Its also not something that can be fixed completely

Unauthorized immigrants in the United States of American border control has being a big problem and concern with regards to national security. There are a lot of people from various countries that want to migrate into United States for so many individual reasons known to them. The United States is a country known for countless jobs which other nations don’t have. A great number of immigrants, however, want to move away from their government reason because the government doesn’t treat them right just the way they want to be treated. For that reason, they move to the United States because they want

People who are illegal immigrants, travel distances and cross borders to seek a better life while they are desperately looking for a better opportunities, they are also running away from famine, wars or violence from their homeland. For example, Mexico and most central and South America countries unfortunately have a poor economic, environmental and life is not easy to live there. These countries also still engaged in a war with various reasons. Especially; Mexican drug cartels which kills more than 80,000 people in every year. Therefore, United States being the main country that so many immigrants attract as they try to cross the border illegally. As they looking a place that provides freedom of speech and religion, steady jobs, a safe environment, and benefits for the poor and unemployed. It has become a home for many of them. “In 2012, the population of immigrants in the United States illegally is estimated to 11.43 million, rough 3.7% of the entire US population. 59% of the immigrants in the country illegally are from Mexico”. 25% of all the immigrants in the country are illegally reside in California State. As the crossing the border and the journey is hard, in 2008, 53% out of all the immigrants are males which are younger than 40 years old. Some people believes that this people deserve a chance because most of them come with a good intentions. Specifically, they just want jobs where they can get decently paid so they can support them self and their family back home.

To begin with, we need to stop immigrants from entering the country. We have been having this problem for so long and unless we act now we will not stop this increasing trend of illegal immigrants. According to CNN, there are currently 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S and they are continuing to increase every year. Why should we allow illegal immigrants to enter our country when they are basically committing a crime by entering illegally.  If

Security is a big problem to many people, they will be happy to know that immigrants aren’t criminals, in fact they are less likely to commit a crime than someone born in the United States. Research shows that immigrant men around the ages 18-49 are one fifth to one half as likely to be imprisoned than Americans (Pérez-Peña). This illustrates how twisted our view is on immigrants, media has pinned immigrants as dirty criminals. With President Trump in office, his single sided view on immigrants only makes things worse. Not only are immigrants law-abiding, they also take up arms and protect our nation; around 8,000 noncitizens join the military each year (Powers). These patriots will lay down their life for America and Americans still persecute them, this is unacceptable. Lastly, the logistics of coming to the United States after a long journey and a fruitless life only to be incarcerated doesn't make any sense. Furthermore, study shows that even illegal immigrants pay their taxes when they could easily get away with it. "Undocumented immigrants are trying to abide by the law and are fulfilling their civic and financial responsibilities." Say’s Magaña-Salgado, filing their taxes and abiding the law helps them in judicial cases (Blanco). The

While illegal immigration is a crime, the act of crossing the border without authorization is a mere misdemeanor. Immigrants, in fact, may help drive crime down. The vast majority want to stay in the country in order to work, so they naturally steer clear of breaking any laws. And as The Future of Freedom Foundation 's Sheldon Richman pointed out a few years ago, all manners of violent crimes dropped dramatically since 1986, the last time an amnesty was granted to illegal immigrants. Yes, 14 percent of federal inmates are illegal immigrants, but they are largely there for immigration violations. On the state level, Richman notes, less than 5 percent of inmates are illegal immigrants. Not exactly the makings of a crime wave.

Imagine putting yourself in the shoes of an illegal immigrant. You have to feed your family, get money to pay the rent, and prevent getting caught from immigration authorities. The consequences for getting caught could include deportation or serving time in jail. 11 million undocumented immigrants currently live in the United States and have a family to take care of. Families caught under pressure in their own country might not have a choice but to enter a country illegally. Others would say that immigration laws should not let illegal immigrants into the US regardless of the circumstances, but these Immigration laws are unorganized and broken because millions of undocumented

“They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people,” per President Trump about Mexico. A massive understatement, as one study indicates that an increase in immigrant concentration in American cities may even lead to a decrease in crime (MacDonald). Yet, a problem remains. Illegal immigrants have broken the law to be in the United States (US), even if they have committed no other crimes while in the US. That said, programs like Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), a program that reprieves the children of illegal immigrants from deportation and allows them to receive work permits, encourages immigrants to illegally seek refuge in the US. More problematic, the program is fleeting and, in the long run, does not provide undocumented immigrants with the protection they truly need.

Immigration has been a part of the United States history since its birth. America is a country that was found and built by immigrants. In the beginning everybody was an immigrant. There were people from all over the globe coming to America with the hope for a better life—which still holds true today. There are countless reasons that people are wanting to come to America today. Some immigrants are fleeing radical governments, while others are escaping countries that are torn with civil war. On the down side, America is not a newly discovered land with wide open land for the taking anymore. She simply cannot accommodate every individual who wishes to live here. Regulating who, when, and the quantity of those who are coming to America is extremely important. Illegal immigration has been a problem in America for decades, and there have been numerous attempts in controlling it.

Cracking down on illegal immigration has been Trump and Sessions’ top priority since day one. Travel ban aside, the DOJ’s worked in tandem with the Department of Homeland Security, which is in the process of hiring 15,000 Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents (ICE), to enforce the president’s executive orders on immigration. The Justice Department has also put an end to the “catch and release” policies undertaken by the Obama administration, where illegal immigrants caught for unlawful entry into the United States are released while waiting for a hearing with an immigration judge.

Illegal immigration has become a huge issue in the United States, it is estimated that there are about twelve million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. today and that number is growing larger every day. This issue has caused multiple social, economic, safety, and law issues within the country. The state and federal government is using billions of dollars on things such as school, welfare, and medical and receiving minimal or no money in return simply because they are giving out the money to illegal immigrants who do not pay taxes to help fund things. Even though illegal immigrants help the economy, take low paying jobs, and improve the overall image of America, the U.S. must not allow any persons who enter this country illegally to

Secondly, illegal immigrants fill up prisons and bring crime to America. One reason is that that Mexicans are the second most popular race in American prisons. “While illegal immigrants account for about 3.5 percent of the U.S population, they represented 36.7 percent of federal sentences in FY 2014 following criminal convictions, according to U.S. Sentencing Commission data obtained by Breitbart News” (May). A lot of the illegal immigrants fill up us prisons also committing crimes endangering others. Another reason, is that Illegal immigrants take up a low percent of the USA’s population but in prisons they take up a huge percent of inmates.”Of the "illegal" residents, 20,333 — 74 percent of them — were primarily sentenced for immigration violations, not violent crimes, according to the chart. Nine unauthorized immigrants were primarily convicted of murder, 50 of assault, 19 of sexual abuse, the chart shows” (Selby). A lot get charged with violent crimes, affecting the lives of completely innocent americans. Also, illegal immigrants are hard to catch. “Tracking down dangerous criminals often meets with far less success. A 1998 Washington Post article revealed that District of Columbia police had been unable to resolve two dozen homicide cases because the suspects had fled to their native El Salvador to avoid prosecution. These cases represented nearly two-thirds of the department 's 37 outstanding warrants for slaying suspects. A recent book

There is the right way to come into the United States and there is a wrong way. Back then Immigration wasn’t a huge thing but now a days it's harder to get allowed in so people sneak into the U.S. If someone want’s to come into the U.S they should have to and get approved to come into the U.S instead of trying to sneak in. It is unfair for people who are trying to come into the U.S the right way. Immigration is a popular topic right now especially because Donald Trump is now President of United States of America. People who are citizen get jobs taken away from them because illegal immigrants come in and work for low wage. They should change the law to if you want to come into the U.S you should have to take the naturalization test and be able to speak english. For the number of illegal immigrants maybe as high as 20 million people in the United States that’s almost double the official estimates of 11.1 million of the March 2005 Current Population Survey.

The United States of America has always been a refuge where poor and oppressed people from the far corners of the world can come to begin a new life. Much of the nation’s allure to prospective immigrants is in its promise of equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, or color. But the pressures of rising unemployment rates, congested cities, a crippled healthcare system, and national debt skyrocketing out of control have caused America to defend her borders against the influx of immigrants that threaten her already ailing economy. Still, despite all the heightened security measures incorporated in recent decades, a steady stream of immigrants continue to enter the country illegally. The Washington Times reports that there are
