Immigration
Bruce W. Norcise
APUS ENGL110
Introduction
The United States and some of the western nations have
continued to carry the burden of both illegal and legal
immigrants. More immigrants continue to find their ways to
some of the developed nations with the hope that they will find
a peaceful place to settle. It is for this reason why the need to
have a policy that controls the trends of the immigrants
emerges. Despite the fact that there are immigration laws in
place, immigration trends continue to change, thus calling for
the need to come up with more updated policies. It is imperative
to hear out the immigrants before deporting them to their
nations of origin.
The illegal immigrants should be given a hearing in the nations
they seek asylum before deportation because of different
reasons. The first reason relates to humanity. The United States
and other developed nations are where they are in terms of
civilization and democracy because they value humanity
(Casarico, Facchini, & Frattini, 2015). The reason why they
should give illegal immigrants a hearing is to understand the
story from the perspective of the immigrants. Some immigrants
choose to leave their nations of origin because the situations in
their nations are unbearable. Sending such people to their
nations of origin can, to some extent, become inhuman.
The second reason why the immigrants should be given a
hearing by the nations they are seeking asylum is that the
developed nations have an obligation or an elderly brother role.
Nations such as the United States, are big brothers to
developing nations, and that is why they, at times, offer free aid
(Wright, Levy, & Citrin, 2016). As a big brother, the United
States should consider the life of immigrants. Even though it is
illegal for a person to be in a foreign nation, it is also important
to note that, at times, people are forced by circumstances
(Wright et al. 2016). In desperate cases, it is imperative to
reason with the immigrants.
The third reason why the immigrants should be offered a chance
for hearing relates to the impacts they might have on the host
nation. It is imperative to note that not all immigrants are
unskilled or illiterate. Retaining immigrants who have proven
that they mean no harm to the nation comes with possible
positive impacts (Heer, 2018). The reason for hearing them is to
analyze them and determine if it would be suitable to retain
them. Retaining immigrants who are skilled has a positive
impact on the economy and diversity of the hosting nation.
Conclusion
Immigration is an issue that continues to give some of the
developed nations and especially nations in the west restless
nights. Globalization has played its part in promoting
immigration. Whereas nations have been fighting hard to avoid
illegal immigration cases, cases of immigration increase by the
day. It is, therefore, critical to have a policy in place that will
help to deal with cases of illegal immigration. Without
contradiction, illegal immigration is something that does not
deserve the support of any human. However, it is imperative to
consider the well-being of illegal immigrants. Such are humans
who might be suffering, and taking them back home would be
the same as directing them to their deaths, which is in all means
and definitions inhuman.
