what is an american?
Being in America is one thing, to be in America you
have to respect the laws, but you get freedom. The reason why we have laws is
because some people in America take advantage of it and tend to do dense
things. For example selling drugs, shootings, rape, kidnapping, etc… I feel
that these people don’t deserve to be in America, there are people out there
that have suffered with slavery, or immigrants that cropped our farms and don’t
get the freedom. I say this because they sacrifice their selves for us, and we
don’t thank them or appreciate them, even the African Americans that suffered
through slavery.
Also the slavery was when the African Americans were taken away from Africa to “free them” to work for them and become slaves and get an amount of money a day, or most of the wages that was nowhere after taking a family. This situation is compared to the immigrants that came to the United States to be freed and make money by farming but to those immigrants it felt like slavery they were only getting paid a certain amount of money.

In the first paragraph i do not get why criminals should not be in America when their are other criminals in other parts of the world as well. I like how your thesis is clear about what you feel/think it means to be an American.
