Refugees vs. Immigrants
Whats is an Immigrant?
According to CNN an Immigrant is a person who choses to resettle in another country.
What is a Refugee?
According to CNN a Refugee is a person is forced to resettle in another country. They need help and their lives are in danger.
Where does the line get crossed whether or not a person is a Refugee or an Immigrant?
America is a country built on hope and dreams which is why most people choose to resettle here. A Refugee does not chose to come to America, they are forced. Refugees are more aloud in America than an illegal Immigrant who crossed the border to get here.
If associations like ISIS and the Mexican Cartel are running your country wouldn't you want to leave? Are the people that want to leave that country Refugees or Immigrants? The answer can not be answered at this point in time but this topic needs to be dicussed. The immigration issue in this country is definately a problem but if people need help and lives need to be saved we need to take action as a country. When defining an Immigrant we need to be more specific and know when it is okay to come to America. An Immigrant that comes to America to make money and comes here illegaly is bad but if you come here and have a goal to save your life from the termoil of your former country than it is okay.
