On friday, 43 people died in Syria due to confrontation between an demostrators calling for political change and the government. About a thousand Syrian protesters marched after Muslim's weekly prayers in display. Human rights group had a different perspective on the situation stating that the kidnapping and injuring people. This act of violence prompt international condemnation saying Syrian people should have the rights to a peaceful protest. I chose this article because I want to relate it to the term amnesty which I learned today in class. Will this happen in America if we allow all immigrants to be legal? Will Americans hate the fact that we are going to go against our own constitution and corrupt American culture? If there was protesting due to the amnesty becoming reality, will our government act in the same violent ways? Or maybe the citizens of America would never allow amnesty and start be violent towards the former immigrants. I think the amnesty card is way to risky to play and that we don't know if the result will have a bigger negative or positive impact. But I think what had happen in Syria is possible to happen in America if the amnesty did come into truth.
