I'm a Criminal and You are too
There's an short article in the CNN News called "I'm a criminal and so are you." This article talks about how Michelle Alexander identifies herself as a criminal and is saying that everyone is an criminal too. Also she is also saying that everyone every now and then commits a crime or breaks the law. A quote from the article states "No matter what their color, age or gander, most of the people in my neighborhood and in my workplace seem to think criminals exist somewhere else -- in ghettos, mainly." This quote mainly says that around Alexander's work area and neighborhood people are saying people that are ghetto cause the most criminals more than they do. I think that everyone creates crimes equally no matter what the race or who you are. If you break the law then you break the law there's nothing you or no one can do about it. When i first started reading this article I though about the criminals in jail instead of me being a criminal. Now that I think about Alexander is right everyone is a criminal and no one can stop it or do anything. Whats done is done, you can't change it.
