I do not believe this bill should be made effective. Yes, this bill may be efficient. It may make the individuals convicted of armed robbery a person for society. They can take a better advantage of the programs offered to them, but I believe that the cons listed outweigh the pros. If the prison term were doubled, what would happen to the rest of the inmates?
Instead of an estimated decrease in violence, crime and alcohol consumption, it led to an increase in at least violence and crime. When people could not gain access to alcohol the way they were used to, they had to find an alternate source. This led to a huge black market for alcohol and the start for one of America's most infamous gangsters: Al Capone. The alcohol supplied was however no longer produced under legitimate supervision, and had often been spiked with poison and chemicals, which led to an increase in deaths from alcoholic poisoning. The huge black market for alcohol controlled by crime organizations grew so large that many of the criminal groups were able to build their empires mainly on profits from illegal alcohol.
No retirement, no relaxation while you’re always watching out for the police and most importantly, no future. Crime truly doesn’t pay. It’s an old lesson that lots of people seem to forget or simply remain ignorant to because there seems to be little argument to the contrary. The government can’t expect the would-be criminals of America, who have seen for themselves how a life of crime
Implementing laws to reduce the number of immigrants entering the United States illegally that lead to racial profiling has caused many controversial issues and arguments among people. For example, on April 23,2010 Arizona Governor, Jan Brewer, signed S.B. 1070 into law. That would prevent some immigrants from entering the country illegally. The law requires Arizona police officers to question any one they reasonably suspect of being an illegal alien.
They are upset that because of all the illegal immigrants their own rights are being suppressed because of the new laws being forced onto immigrants. As one states in this article, "We come here to work in the land of the free, but the best and the brightest of us are finding themselves prisoners of statutory walls," said Vivek Gupta, 39, a neuroradiologist at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota and a former medical resident at Yale University. "I have received awards for my teaching and skills, yet I am forbidden to get federal research grants, and I have to renew my visa year after year after year."
Most of those illegal immigrants are uneducated; poor and they are intended to commit criminal activities. We can see those illegal immigrants are coming in U.S and utilizing the every government assistant programs available. Illegal immigrants didn’t works for the progress and development of the nation. Instead of doing benefit for the nations, they just think
Desmond LeSure Professor Bolton ENGL 1020 19 April 2012 “Is the Three-Strikes Law fair and ethical?” There are individuals who were known as habitual criminals who constantly repeated the cycle of committing a crime, getting arrested, and eventually getting released. In 1993, Americans noticed that this was very costly to the public because the process of arresting and trying these criminals was expensive. American tax payers were beginning to become concerned with this issue and wanted something to be done about habitual offenders. Society is pushing the issue that it was more logical to keep repeat criminals in jail and not release them to commit more crimes. Politicians listened to society and executed a law that would put an end to
This legislation, however, proved to have many loopholes around it for illegal immigrants to obtain drivers’ licenses regardless of their illegal status because the states were not obliged to conform to the standards. Therefore, states like Washington and Oregon that did not conform to the national standards until later in 2008 when the federal government made it that non-conforming licenses were no longer accepted in any federal agency, became a sort of a safe haven for a lot of illegal immigrants from various states to obtain drivers’
The origins of illegal immigration date to the late nineteenth century. “In 1875, a federal law was passed which prohibited entry of convicts and prostitutes. In 1882 President Chester A. Arthur banned almost all Chinese immigration to the United States, and shortly thereafter barred paupers, criminals and the mentally ill from entering. Although this affected only a small percentage of immigrants, there were now distinctions between legal and illegal immigration” (End Illegal Immigration).According to this quote which came from the article “Americans working to stop Illegal Immigration” the United States has always had a problem with illegal immigration. Even though immigrating illegally to America might be considered wrong and a crime by some American people sometimes it’s necessary.
Racism and discrimination still run crazy in the United States. My definition of free would be without worry or fear for your safety, but many people do not have this luxury. We take it for granted how much freedom we actually receive and how many people in our country do not have that same privilege. Freedom is not given to prisoners, dogs at a kennel, or victims of human trafficking. All these things and much more happen here in the United States.
