Immigration laws getting out of hand

1.  not applicable
2. This was about someones opinion on Trumps Presidency and the immigration policies he is heavily enforcing.
3. This writer says, "Luckily, there's also been protests and outcries to protect these innocent undocumented immigrants." This direct quote from the article tells me that this person is against Trumps decisions to deport all immigrants.
4.  They addressed what the other side might say a little. The part were the person says "Even though ICE has been in existence since 2003.." is backing up in the case that someone would say this has always been an enforced law.
5. They were not wishy washy at all. Throughout the whole article the person was strongly opinionated on what they though was right an didn't have any drawbacks.
6. There are no quotes.
7. I think this is in third person.

1. Reagan Wallace
2. This was about an opinion on the new Secretary of Education.

4. She doesn't address what the other side might say.
5. I didn't think this was wishy washy because she wasn't afraid to say everything wrong about this person.
6. She used one quote.
7. This is in first person.
