American Citizen Faced Deportation | NBC Chicago
Quote:
Caraballo said he repeatedly told officers that he was born in Puerto Rico and therefore an American citizen. His mother also presented his birth certificate, but despite that and his state-issued ID, officials told him he was facing deportation.

"I'm pretty sure they know that Puerto Ricans are citizens, but just because of the way I look -- I have Mexican features -- they pretty much assumed that my papers were fake," he said. "They were making me feel like I can't voice my opinion or I can't even speak for myself to let them know that I am a citizen."
I predicted that this stupid move by Trump would lead to native born & naturalized citizens and legal residents being targeted.

We need to convert the current passport card into a national ID card. It would solve alot of problems and it would make the voter ID issue go away.

How can it take 3 days to verify if someone is a U.S. citizen?

Only one side of the story...

However, the date of the story is 2010...so much for blaming Trump on this one.

Please date check your articles. I am slowly getting into the habit of doing that.

You think the OP did it by accident? This is just part of the disinformation campaign, which I believe is a loosely organized effort on social media, and more organized at the MSM level.

Come on now OP, are you not going to come back and address how you put a story from 2010 up, and made a claim it has to do with Trump?
