Plagiarism

          Plagiarism is no joking matter. Since it is illegal, then it must be a serious offense. People should not plagiarize because there are serious consequences such as: getting an F for a citizenship grade and a zero on the assignment.  It may result in losing privileges like losing the educational opportunity the person has, risking the loss of future opportunities, and losing the trust of the teacher. Lastly, it shows laziness on the part of the person plagiarizing, and it brings shame and humiliation. Not many people admit to plagiarising, in fear of the consequences, and the shame it may bring upon them is nothing a person would want. There are many more reasons why people should not plagiarize, but overall, everyone can agree it is unethical, illogical, and people just should not do it.
