As we finish this unit in which i personally learned so much from i do have some last thoughts. I have always been on the side of immigrants being innocent and defending their rights. All of these i continue to stand for but there have been some changes. These different ideas and different perspectives that were shared during the time in which we were to discuss our papers. We were asking one of our team members about her thesis and she expressed herself very openly and said she did not know what to write about. Not because she did not have a side but because she agreed to both sides. Instantly i understood her dilemma as i find myself at points wondering what the Arizona law is really trying to achieve.
A very deep conversation was brought on and after the class ended as i drove home i thought to myself, wow things are not what i thought them to be. Immigrants come to this country as illegal individuals with the thoughts of succeeding and are aware of all the consequences they have to face. The thing that strikes me as the most shocking is that the Arizona law is something incredibly horrible occurring yet most immigrants are better prepared for this situation that the citizens; they are better prepared than those who are fighting to give them some rights.
Arizona's law is something gone public that if noticed it is not illegal. As someone who fights for justice the actions they are portraying are legal and almost understood. They plan to send back all those individuals who have criminal record and those whom are not cooperating to the economy or the well being of the united states. This is what they are suppose to be doing but is it what they are doing? In order to find this answer to this research has to be done and i intend to do so. Immigrants are part of this country and are part of each and everyone one of our lives. The appropriate thing to do would be to find a solution to this and stop trying to prevent them from coming by spending so much unnecessary money. Overall, Arizona's laws might not be meant to be so bad but it always depends on the person whom is enforcing them and how they take their meaning.
