who is the victim?

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/california-politics/2010/09/she-treated-me-as-if-i-was-not-a-human-being.html

This passage is about a undocumented farmer and the Republican nominee for California governor Meg Whitman. She is now suing the governor of financial abuse, for been disrespected, and exploitation. She says that she was not paying her good enough and now that she ask her for help to fix her residential status she just fired her. One of my thoughts is that she has been working for them for about 9 years and how come she never said anything about what was happening to her and she is now saying all of this exactly when Whitman is running?She says that she treat her as a piece of trash, but she was not actually employed personally by Whitman. She was hired by some company that send her to Whitman house. The house keeper also lied about her status and she comes now after all this years saying all of this and wants Whitman help. The nominee governor did not knew about this and this company that send the house keeper runs like a company that get anybody and lied about their immigration status in order to get them jobs. Yes, there was a law that would help their boss get their employees paper but not anymore so why does she ask her for help. How would she help her? She now comes confessing that she was illegal and that she had falsified the hiring documents and personal information she provided to the employment agency that brought her to us in 2000. This is a big crime in front of the eyes of America and she also admitted that she had done fraud in which I think that she should not be doing this because I'm not saying that she is nobody but she should of not done this because she does not have paper, falsified her documents and last but not least she never said this before and wait until now. “As required by law, once we learned she was an illegal worker, I immediately terminated Nicky's employment. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I considered Nicky a friend and a part of our extended family.” stated by Meg Whitman. In my opinion I think she did good but in the other I think that sometimes we do anything it takes to have a job and we all come here to have a better life but we should be humbles.

A Florida pastor Terry Jones plans on burning the Koran of Muslin in honor of the victims of the 9/11. He wants to burn it because he wants to send a message to the Muslims about what would happen to anyone who want to do something to the U.S, also to show that they are not welcome after the crisis that left many injures, deaths, and families alone with out their loves ones. This will create a serious violence between American troops and Muslims, the American military is in danger because there would be “a recruitment bonanza for Al Qaeda” as the President Barack Obama said. The president also said that “this country has been built on the notions of religious freedom and religious tolerance," which connects to the Constitution and the rights that we have as citizens of the U.S and also to the amendment 1 because even though we have the rights of freedom we should not do want ever we want as stated by one of the reporters who interview the president. He also mention that it is contrary to our values as Americans meaning that is the opposite from who we are, as John Locke said the state of law are the reasons for doing something, this is about Mr. Jones choosing to burn the Korans which for them means like their bible just because what happen 9th years ago, when the terrorist attacked the twin towers in the city of New York. Even though he said that the burning of the Koran maybe cancel for right now doesn't mean he will not do it, later he said that his plan was only "suspended" because he was "lied to" over a deal to call off the event in exchange for a promise to move a planned Islamic centre away from New York's Ground Zero” this is saying that he made a deal with imam Feisal Abdul Rauf about moving away from New York and going to a place far way from there but he said that he had never spoken to him, and his plan still on, but now he will burn about 20 copies. They had also say that he was trying to convey people to join him and burn 100 copies of the Koran. This is also causing a big impact on people because they are terrified about the Muslim reaction, and they think that what Mr Jones is planning on doing is wrong and should not do it. In my opinion I think he should not do this because it is also a way of disrespecting others' people religion and it will not bring back anything from 9/11 and also it will not change anything since now war is over. This can create a big suspension in people and our government because he is putting in danger the young people in Afghanistan who are away from their families.
