Immigration has been a problem that we have had to deal with for two hundred years. All of us come from families that immigrated here. This nation was built with people from hundreds of other nations fleeing for refuge. The immigrants are what built this nation. Jennifer Holle makes many good points in her blog comparing two articles about this very topic.
These two articles both show biased based on political parties. MSNBC is a liberal news source and their view on the immigration law definitely sides with what the typical stereotype for liberals is. They are more opposed to this law passed by the Arizona governor.
FOX News is a conservative biased news source and that definitely rears its head in their article. They are backing the law passed by the Republican governor.
I feel that this law is not fair. It forces officers to place judgment on people. They have a hard enough job to do as it is, but by adding this to it, they are going to receive a lot of scrutiny. I believe that this law is going to lead to a lot of racial stereotypes. This is also going to get a lot of people in trouble.
I think that this law needs to be lifted. There needs to be a national law put in place to help solve the immigration problem. They should make it easier to become a citizen as well as make the borders harder to pass through. This would lead to better availability of jobs and make this nation a more fair place for everybody that lives here.
