Good, now he can be a respected coffee maker in Mexico. They need more respected people.
Mexico has plenty of volcanic soil but not nearly so much rain.
Bye bye, if you wanted to be an American we have a path.
You chose not to follow it.
If he is so respected after all that time, why didn’t he bother to become a citizen legally?
Well.... BYE...
This article and reporting in this case is a primer for fake news.
This article contradicts itself all over the place.
First it says: “coffee farmer in Hawaii who appealed his deportation order in federal court was forced to leave the island late Friday”
Then it says: “Ortiz voluntarily left Hawaii to return to Mexico”
It says: “The 43-year-old was smuggled in to the U.S. when he was 15 in order to join his mother.”
Then it says: “Ortiz had been working to obtain legal citizenship in the United States for nearly three decades”
Well, he came here as a 15 year old three decades ago. Are they saying this 15 year immediately began “working to obtain legal citizenship”?
None of it makes sense except as an appeal to emotion.
And this article doesn’t say that it was the Obama administration that first issued the deportation order.
And it doesn’t say why he is subject to this - TWO DUI convictions.
Hawaii? That is a long,swim. The ultimate majodo.
Yes. If he’s so great, he should start a coffee business in Mexico.
He’d make a lot of money and he’d help the Mexican economy, provide jobs etc...
His family should go with him as well.
He can go through the proper channels to apply for immigration to the US. Supposedly that takes 10 years before he could come back m
Well, that 10 years will go by in a second if he just works hard in Mexico and has his family there.
Maybe after a couple years he’ll decide he likes Mexico.
Boo hoo.
The article leaves out that he screwed it up by getting two DUI convictions as an illegal alien.
The article doesn’t, and nothing I’ve seen, explains why the couple didn’t do what you suggest.
My guess is that to do it legally he’d have to have gone back to Mexico for a variable amount of time and he didn’t want to have to do that.
But even if they were trying that, the DUI’s would have scuttled that.
There is something missing from this story.
My stepson is married to a lovely lady from Peru. This was not a sham marriage for citizenship but just to people in love. They jumped through all the legal hoops and she became an American Citizen the legal way. It took a couple of years but it was all legal. In Peru she was a dentist. One day she will also be a dentist here in the United States.
As I said, something is wrong with this story.
Looks like ifinnigan put his finger on it. The guy apparently had a couple of DUI convictions.
Aloha....
Why the hell did the Goobermint not grant citizenship to the spouse of an American in twenty eight freaking years?! No wonder there are so many illegals if there is NO LEGAL PATH.
What if Mexico decides to not grant citizen ship to the Americans wife? Do we really have to ask big brother for permission to marry?
Yes, if you are a foreign national wanting citizenship.
The article leaves out that he screwed it up by getting two DUI convictions as an illegal alien.
...
This article and others about this illegal alien seem to have a lot of misleading statements and ommissions. His marriage is probably a sham, too. She isn’t the mother of the children. The mother is also an illegal.
The corrupt media is the enemy of the American people.
What is so bad about Mexico that everyone wants to escape it?
Well, that’s useful information.
Where’d you get it?
These articles either bury facts or is devoid of pertinent
Maybe they were 'well-respected' DUI convictions.
I know a 'well-respected' IT systems administrator who overstayed his visa once and now is unable to come back to the US from the UK.
Too bad his immigration lawyer didn't know about the 'well-respected' exception to the law, huh...
