If a man is found with drugs, shouldn’t he be punished? If a man gets caught drag racing, shouldn’t he pay the price? If an immigrant breaks a US law, shouldn’t they be deported? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then why are select people not being punished? A current example of a person not paying the price for their crimes is Canadian pop star Justin Bieber. Justin Bieber has broken several laws and it’s time for him to be deported.
Justin Bieber moved to the United States with an O-1 visa. This kind of visa is given to people with "an extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics" (Navarrette). There are five main reasons why an alien would be deported. First, they were inadmissible at time of entry. Second, they failed to keep a nonimmigrant status and violated conditions of admission. Third, they committed marriage fraud. Fourth, they failed to register or had false documents. The final reason is criminal grounds. ("Unlawful Activities Subject to Deportation"). This is where Justin Bieber comes in.
Justin Bieber was recently arrested for drag racing while under the influence of drugs and alcohol in Miami. Not only was he under the influence, he was also driving without a valid license. To top it off, he resisted arrest (Navarrette)! If that's not criminal grounds, I don't know what is.
Despite Bieber's recent behavior, there are still people that don't believe he should be deported because he was never "technically" convicted of anything criminal. However only 26% of Americans believe this according to the HuffPost/YouGov poll (Swanson and Foley). While Bieber hasn't been convicted, that doesn't mean he shouldn't be deported. Just ask the 151,835 immigrants that were deporte...

J.D.B instantly denied his involvement, but after DiCostanzo warned that he may face juvenile detention, he confessed. After the confession DiCostanzo told him he could refuse to answer any further questions and leave. “J.D.B nodded and provided further detail, including information about the location of the stolen items. Eventually J.D.B wrote a statement, at DiCostanzo’s request” (J.D.B. v. North Carolina) it was after the confession that DiCostanzo told J.D.B that he could refuse any further questions, but he hadn’t told him this previously.

    For instance, Helen O’ Neill, author of “Parents Deported, What happens to U.S.-born kids?”, explains who also falls victim to unreasonable deportation here: “It 's a question thousands of other families are wrestling with as a record number of deportations means record numbers of American children being left without a parent”. Hence, when parents are deported, children often face an uncertain future of foster care, home relocation, and confusion. In addition to the above point, O’ Neill points out the extent to how many parents and families are affected in the following fact: “Nearly 45,000 such parents were removed in the first six months of this year, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)”. According to the statistic, the deportation of parents is not an uncommon occurrence; tens of thousands of families are affected each year. Think of how many children are also uprooted from their homes as a result of

  • Argumentative Essay On Cesar Chavez

    1314 Words  | 3 Pages

    Formally, an immigrant can be defined as “a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country.” But in some cases, there has been people like Cesar Chavez who have made a difference in history as an immigrant. Unfortunately, there are those who are not as lucky as Cesar Chavez and end up getting deported just like what happened in Operation Wetback in 1942. Now, they have made a way for immigrants to become U.S. citizens by taking the citizenship test. However, Donald Trump is one of the many people attempting to keep immigrants as far away from the U.S. Border laws are also another one of the many reasons why not many immigrants get the chance to enter this country because in many ways the laws that surround the border are in some ways unfair and not really the best. Immigration still remains a problem in our country

    Many other Americans believe the same thing as Roy Beck. Immigrants are not stealing American-born citizens jobs, they are simply hard workers, which allows them to attain a job. People also think that the low-skilled immigrants have no purpose, since they aren’t highly skilled. Without low-skilled immigrants, the US-born workers would not be able to sufficiently complete their jobs, whether they are of low-skill or not. Immigrants are willing to perform a task that some Americans would not be willing to do....

  • Raps Controversy

    Today most young people think that if a person is rich and famous, they can get away with anything. They see rappers get charged with felonies and then they see that the charges get dropped. They’ve heard of celebrities running over children while drunk and get away with it without doing any time. However, not all rappers have run-ins with the law, but the ones that do are very well known. Tupac Shakur (RIP), for example, had many run-ins with the law. He was arrested for aggravated assault, and charged with shooting two off duty police officers in Atlanta in 1993, but the charges were later dropped (bomp). He was also accused of beating a limousine driver in Los Angeles and found guilty of threatening a fellow rapper with a baseball bat in Michigan (bomp).
