They gotta go

Should undocummented immigrants be allowed to stay?

Undocumented immigrants should not be able to stay. One reason is because they are causing the U.S. to lose money. $190 million, about 25 percent, of the uncompensated costs southwest border county hospitals incurred resulted from emergency medical treatment provided to undocumented immigrants. In addition to that, the money that we pay for taxes is being used to pay for the immigrants that are being deported. If the number of illegal immigrants decreases then the amount of our taxes will increase as well. This will make our money status bad.

Another reason why illegal immigrants should not stay is because they are the ones who break our laws most. Hispanics are 3 times more likely than whites to be convicted of crimes requiring incarceration and 19 times more likely to belong to a street gang. Immigrants in the U.S. are 12% of the population, but yet 30% of the federal prison populations are undocumented people. It’s causing the U.S. to be a non-safe country. Criminal rates are increasing and most is caused by people who don’t even belong here.

3 out of 10 immigrants can’t speak out language. Why would they want to be here if they can’t even communicate with us? This just makes it more complicated for both of us. They could try to learn it but the majority of them decide not to. Instead they want to be strangers in our country and stick to their culture might as well stick to your country as well.

wow, these are strong points. It was very courageous of you to post this knowing that most of your classmates disagree with you. I'm glad to see the students before me are being open to your ideas and challenging them as well.
Good use of evidence. Remember to provide your sources.
Good Job!
