Well, he is now here legally, with his family. Was the decision to let him back after a deportation wrong? I believe it is better for him to be here, rather than try to move his family to where he came from.
What was the decision based on? Did he work in this country with a fake or stolen I.D. and yet given a pass for that?
What is your obsession with skin color? Must you play the race card in every post? This isn’t an issue of race or ethnicity. Children are being abandoned. And, it is beyond pathetic to attempt to compare the “temporary” absence of parents during wartime, or stationed abroad, to the “permanent” abandonment of these children. Boarding school? Talk about grasping at straws. I suppose the same applies when kids leave home to attend college?
Reminder: This thread is for the discussion of child abandonment, not monthly remittances, or our opinions of the billions of U.S. dollars leaving this country.
If they are sending money back I don't really consider that abandonment. I call it finding a way to provide for their family.
And yeah I knew it would rile people up for me to even dare to compare their way of providing for their families to that of soldiers, etc.
I couldn't help but read this crack, "dirty brown" people. Always the race card with these pro-illegals, isn't it? Personally, I couldn't care less what color of skin that an illegal has and I have never referred to them as "dirty" either. Of course when one comes here without health checks, who knows?
Well, considering you are all crying about La Raza's over taking our white majority in other threads on the front page I'm pretty sure you are considering race in your motives. If you didn't care about race you wouldn't even care if that were their true motives. I mean, when you guys stereotype them all as "uneducated, poor, dishonest criminals" I don't understand your hangup. I'm just saving words by typing what you really mean.

I don't know anything further on the couple's income (working without authorization is often the first forgiven in the cases with a U.S. citizen spouse) at the time, just that he completed the degree that was started on his student visa. "The Naturalized" is an interesting show, I wish more Americans could see it. Searches I've done today aren't pulling up more information.
Aren't you comfortable that he returned to his home country (through deportation), but was able to legally immigrate back?...

I would be comfortable with it if I knew that he hadn't committed a felony by working with a stolen or fake I.D. or evaded paying his income taxes. Does that answer your question?
Here is my dilema. I don't understand how a felony can be dismissed (not saying in this particular case that it was as I don't know all the facts) regardless of whether it is an illegal alien, legal immigrant or citizen that has committed it. I would imagine that a legal immigrant would be deported without being able to return and I know that a citizen would pay the consequences for committing a felony so why would an illegal alien be given a pass for the same crime?
It matters not to me what country the illegal originated from the rules should apply to all of them.

Living with a U.S. citizen spouse and family I am relatively sure they were paying income taxes...

I also mentioned working with a fake and stolen I.D. Why didn't you address that part of it? If our government is forgiving illegal aliens with U.S. spouses for committing that felony then I am appalled at that. In all fairness then a legal immigrant and a citizen should also be forgiven for any felonies. Bet you will continue to remain silent on that part of my post though, won't you? Prove me wrong.
Can't obide by the law and leave children behind in the process? Even more reason to boot this trash from our country. We don't need more worthless people in the United States. We already have too many as it is.

I don't know every detail, and I know there are loopholes in the laws that many with expired visas who knowingly stayed on, broke the laws, even took jobs illegally, are able to find especially with the right immigration lawyer.
I suppose that's like loopholes in other laws, some people manage to find them, such as those who find ways to avoid paying taxes, get themselves above the laws.
It seems like he could have gone back home before they made him and done it the right way from the start. In the end I suppose the outcome would be the same, he's got the green card marriage but it doesn't make me lose sleep that he got sent back home for a while. He's not better than legal immigrants who carefully followed the laws.
