Plagiarism

Plagiarism is when you take something someone else said and use it as your own. Plagiarism is against the law and just is not right. Honestly, would you want someone to take something you said and say they were the ones who said it? No. Its like trying to steal. Are you going to steal from a store? No. Why? because you know it is wrong. Plagiarism is like trying to steal from a store, it is just wrong, and it gets you no where. If you plagiarize you really are not learning anything. You do not give yourself a chance to learn the material you are working on, instead you are taking the easy way out and, well, cheating. Think about it, would you rather get it wrong but get credit, or get it right but get caught?
