Recommended: Impact of 9/11 attack

On March 11, 2002, the public was made aware of the mistake made by Huffman Aviation International, a school down in Venice, Florida that helps to train pilots. This school trained two immigrants, known as Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi. These two were just two of the nineteen hijackers on September 11, and the Immigration and Naturalization Service did nothing to stop them (Korman 1). It is unbelievable that a pilot training school in our nation helped cause the worst terrorist attack in the history of this nation. While people feel that immigration is good for the economy of this country, immigration should be restricted more and/or stopped from certain countries for the safety and security of this country, these immigrants do not deserve the same rights as naturally-born United States citizens, and the continuation of more illegal immigrants entering this country. First, immigration should be restricted for the safety and security of our country. September 11 was the worst terrorist attack in United States history; and while there have been recent attacks, such as the Boston marathon bombings or the San Bernardino attacks, none have matched the shock and number of deaths as September 11.

The article titled "The New Latino Underclass" by Douglas Massey is an insightful reading that shows the readers just how profoundly discrimination affects the Latinos/Latinas in the United States. It was quite insightful as he stated the history of the discrimination along with the two concepts of "Latino Threat Narrative" and "Hispanic Challenge. " Not only was this article by Massey insightful, but saddening too. I was unaware how harsh the immigration process here in the United States could be especially to innocent people who are seeking safety from their own country. I overall agree with Massey in the sense that we cannot just deport bunches of people, but we must understand they are human.

In this first paragraph, I will argue that the procedures and regulations the United States Government has implemented against Muslims in response to the events of 9/11 violate constitutional law. To start off, Under the Fourteenth Amendment, also referred to as “the protection clause,” the definition according to CNN news in an article titled “The Bush-era Muslim registry failed. Yet the United States could be trying it again,” the article, states that the United States must treat every individual living within the United States territory in the same manners as any other in similar conditions and circumstances, including the equal protection of their rights. The fourteenth amendment also prohibits states from denying any person within its territory the equal protection of the laws. This includes the rights to freedom of speech, the rights to free travel, and religious freedom.

Hundreds or thousands immigrates legal or illegal come to the United States for jobs. Some immigrates come because they need money for their family and other's come because they want to danger us.

We have people wanting to come here legally and we should not be rewarding people who have come here illegally,” said John Barrasso. The United States Government should not allow immigrants into America because they are having negative effects on our country. Some negative effects are citizens competing with illegals for jobs, immigrants expecting favors, and Americans not getting to work hard for their money.

The United States of America, being a country founded by immigrants, is known all over the world as the land of great opportunities. People from all walks of life travelled across the globe, taking a chance to find a better life for them and their family.
