The Refugees At Our Door Analysis
Throughout American history, immigrants have been entering the country to avoid political corruption and civil rights violations. The United States have been a safe haven for many. According to the articles; The Refugees at Our Door, Four ways the U.S. is already banning Muslims and Feds to states: No, you cannot ban Syrian refugees, America has helped people seeking asylum. By trying to ban refugees from entering the country shows how unethical the morals of America has become. America does not have the ethical right to stop the immigration of refugees, however, it is acceptable for Americans to have their reservations as to whether it is safe to accept strangers into their homes.
In the opinion of some, America has the right to ban the refugees

    While this concern is completely justified morally, the facts just don’t add up. According to CNN, “the primary perpetrators of the major terror attacks have mostly been US-born citizens or permanent legal residents originally from countries not included in the ban”. To summarize, refugees really are not the problem here! Most terror attacks that happen within the United States are domestic. Take Dylan Roof for instance, who stormed into an African-American church and shot nine people.…

    With higher risk of gang brutality and homicide, many children, teenagers, and families are choosing to leave their countries and seek asylum in the United States. For example; July, a 32 year old woman dealing with the violence in her town alongside her three children. “For eight years, July’s family has been struggling with the gang and narco-cartel violence that has overtaken many areas of her country. On Oct. 29, 2007, her brother, Carlos Luis Pérez, a skinny 22-year-old, was kidnapped and then found dead two days later in a sewage ditch, his hands and feet cut off.” ( Sonia Nazario. “The Refugees at Our Door.” nytimes.com.

    If I could change one thing about Australia, I would change the poor treatment of the Asylum Seekers from war-infested countries. In fact, Australia is the only country in the world to mandate the detention of Asylum Seekers. This Anti-Asylum policy has been at the spotlight of international criticism by various humanitarian organisations, calling the actions of the Australian Government "an act of discrimination and racism".…

    I believe the U.S. should accept more refugees to connect races, stop their fear of persecution, religion, political opinions. Most americans agree with U.S. help for refugees and also we can decrease disgraceful thing in America history. Refugees do not come on a whim, they come because they have situations that force them to come. In recent years, a lot of refuges have to leave Syria because of civil wars, persecutions and much violence. In this arduous situation, the other countries had to make a decision to accept or not in the country. US candidates do not agree with the argument of refugees. Donald Trump does not want the refugees to migrate to the country because they cause violence, while Hillary Clinton is willing to give them a place…

    With a lack of knowledge about who these refugees truly are and who their loyalties are with, it is a huge liability to allow them to enter the country. Also, it seems there is no type of assimilation program in place to ensure these refugees are able to fit into American society. Not to mention the health concerns that these refugees pose on the safety of Americans as these individuals carry a large risk of health concerns as rates of Tuberculosis are very common among…

    The refugees are more likely to have the common support in our community because of the misconceptions about homeless people being associated with drugs and other personal consequences. Refugees were once a group of human beings who were free and had rights like everybody else until they were stripped away from them, which leads us to sympathize with refugees more than with homeless people who probably ended up in such a situation because of drug abuse, disregarding their education and etc;. Also, there are organizations and charities (that includes soup kitchens and shelters) which have been built to help the homeless in Canada, but refugees do not have that opportunity unless the government do something about them and help them start anew…

    Syrian Refugees Crisis

    The Syrian Refugee Crisis is certainly a hot-button issue today. It has been the subject of major political debate in the last federal election, with many criticising the Conservative Government for its slow speed, lack of commitment, and alleged cherry-picking attitude towards refugee resettlement. The Liberal Party, meanwhile, capitalized on the emotional atmosphere following the release of the photograph of the Syrian child, Alan Kurdi, dead on a Turkish beach; they pledged to bring in 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada by the end of 2015 if elected (Levitz 2016). Comments have been made by figures from both sides of the political spectrum, some deeply emotion while others racists or prejudiced. The public has raised numerous fears, both rational and irrational, of terrorism, burdens on the welfare system, and a rise in cultural and racial tensions. Even the American Senate got involved, with senators claiming that terrorists would enter Canada as refugees then infiltrate the United States, a claim that has later been debunked (Panetta 2016).…

    While Australia is not the only country to detain unauthorised arrivals, it is the only country to mandatory detain children. (Keks, 2013) This movement is widely criticised by rights groups and the UN. A church group even describe it as "state-sanctioned child abuse". They treat children and other asylum seekers in the same way. Children are facing the long processing time without adequate access to schooling and other special services. They are held in some closed detention facilities or detention centres with poor condition for prolonged periods.…

    The culture difference, as well as rising social tensions, would prevent the refugees from letting the refugees integrate seamlessly into society. Even some of the most broad-minded people, “think it a mistake for a society to accept large numbers of refugees from a very different culture,” (Patterson 12). Being almost rejected by a society puts a mental strain on the refugees, and makes the members of society uncomfortable. Other than the security and economic concerns, America must be socially ready to accept the refugees before they…
