In my opinion refugees should be treated as normal people because they have been unlucky with their circumstances and have no choice but to do things which are illegal. If anyone else was in the situation of a refugee, they would react much, much worse. Nobody in our world deserves to be put under that pressure, and it makes me feel how privileged we are to all have a roof under our heads. Refugees are after all human beings like us. Think about a refugee who came from nothing, came to US in a visa given by the government, and established a huge business that made him a lot of money. If you didn't know anything about this person, how would you perceive them? You would hold the person in high regard, but if he knew him from his past as a refugee, you would perceive him as an unimportant person. It is important that we treat everyone the same way.
