I have an opinion; an opinion that could mean something to you. In my opinion, I think Donald Trump should not build a wall. This may sound bizarre that a kid in 4th grade would say something like this, but this is a meaningful opinion. This is a meaningful opinion because Donald Trump is building a wall and it is going against all the things that Thomas Jefferson the #3rd president and one of our founding fathers wrote and the colonists fought for in the American Revolution. Here is an important sentence from the Declaration of Independence: WE hold these Truths to be self evident that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness-- The translation to this sentence is that we hold the truth that all the people are equal and that they should able to have the same rights. These rights require that everyone should consider and have the right to live life in equality and justice, and most importantly that they should be able to live a happy life, meaning they could pick their own job that they would like to have. This was important because in some countries the government says “ Oh you have to be this, and you have to be that.” This relates to our government today because our president wants to build a wall like the Germans divided families in Berlin. But the type of wall that Donald Trump says he will build is different. The wall he wants to build is to stop immigrants from coming to America. This nation does not deserve to be Americans and Americans only. This is why our wonderful nation is called “ The United States of America.” To show you evidence, I shall give you an example: let's say you had a relative in Bosnia for me, or wherever you may come from (even if you don't have a relative in a different country pretend your favorite or close relative did). If Mr. Trump did do as he says then that relative would not be able to move here! What I don’t understand is why would our president want to enclose and bring our free nation to a stop? Think about this as you (if you) watch the news with your parents. If you do watch the news you should still think about it. If you agree with Trump, why? Comments are closed.
