Juan Francisco-Sanchez Argumentative Essay

Decent Essays
Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez is an undocumented immigrant who has been deported from the United States five times.

Mr. Sanchez had been released from jail in April even though the ICE had planned to take him into custody to deport him. San Francisco officials did not comply with the ICE and

    In the article “Houston Gunman Dead After Opening Fire at a Strip Mall,” by Time’s journalist Juan A.

    This was the first case I have ever studied and actually took an in-sight look on, and let me tell you, I was very unsatisfied, sick to my stomach and angry, to say the least. I am upset that it took twenty-three girls to be raped and even three murdered in order to finally see justice served, that in my opinion wasn’t even served. First off, just because the Scarborough rapes had stopped, they felt that there was no need to put Paul Bernardo’s DNA samples as high priority, and as a result pushed them to the back of the line and had to wait three years to hear an answer that many detectives had thought they knew anyways. What also upset me is that Paul Bernardo had the audacity to ask if he was able to have day parole. To even think that he feels he has a right to be in society is sickening, and the fact that he has shown no remorse for everything he has done proves that he is a psychopath.…

    While reading Enrique’s Journey, the most prevalent concern that Enrique faced was the difficulty immigrating to the U.S-Mexico border. Towards the end, Enrique encountered the Rio Grande which separates the U.S. from Mexico and even then he was not allowed to pass. How can a land of immigrants later decide to deny the right to immigrate to the U.S.? The laws concerning the right to immigrate should be geared more towards protecting that right rather than infringing on it. While it is true that outsiders have tried to attack the U.S., that doesn’t mean we should deny people the opportunity to build a life for themselves and their families in America.…

    In supporting the Andersons, I would never have done what Smith did. Mr. Smith does not have the right to refuse to give service to the Andersons. It is his own private business but he does not have the right to refuse service to anyone he wants to whether it being he doesn’t like them for their race, color, sex, ethnicity and sexuality. Mr. Smiths actions are wrong and therefore not right at all. It isn't morally acceptable.…

    Mando had a wonderful final term. He played all of his music with great enthusiasm and accuracy, and his demeanor was exemplary. Exceptional too was his ability to hear and follow instructions the first time; not necessarily a sixth grade strength :-) Remember, Mando, the door to the Percussion Ensemble remains wide open to you should you change your mind about your Arts enrollment. Have a great…

    Reading the two passages, I must agree with Roberto's argument on how teachers,police officers, and firefighters are under pay. Jennifer, on the other hand, glorifies athletes, and their million dollar salaries. Its unbelieveable how teachers; provide knowlege,police officers; fight crimes, and firefighters; save people, and suffer from low salaries. While athletes, get millions for just entertaining! I feel very hurt, on how most averge working class has to stuggle.…

    Growing up in South Florida speaking with your hands is something very common, and it becomes something that goes unnoticed in most circumstances. So this week when reading Casasanto article I looked more into his other article "Good and Bad in the Hands of Politicians: Spontaneous Gestures during Positive and Negative Speech". I would never have thought that emotion could be projected as a hand gesture, and that depending on which hand you are dominant in would mean whether the emotion to convey would be positive or negative.…
