So why is a US citizen going to Mexico for treatment of epilepsy? I can’t imagine the Mexican government is going to be paying for the treatment, and I can’t imagine their medical system is better than ours for treating conditions like that.
My BS meter hit “Man the Lifeboats” when reading this.
My friend’s great aunt was born in San Francisco, and live to be about 90. She only spoke Italian. Nice lady.
He says he was born in the US, I can’t see where he claims to have been raised here.
Were his parents legally in the U.S. when he was born? If not, he is an anchor baby and is not a U.S. citizen.
So, if he’s an American citizen, why didn’t he invest in a USA Passport?
I don’t know the price now. I think I paid $65 about five years ago to renew mine.
I also have an Enhanced Drivers License with a microchip.
I think that cost an extra $25.
I can get into and out of Canada with just the EDL.
I think the EDL is good for Mexico, too, but I’ve never been to Mexico.
And I have to have a passport but because he’s Mexican he thinks he doesn’t need one.
I thought a passport was required for travel to and from Mexico nowadays. I now years ago my employer wanted some of to go and work on a church mission in Mexico but I didn’t have a passport so he told me I couldn’t go. I was happy as a pig in shit not to go to Mexico again!
I checked the price on a new Passport.
$110 for a “passport book.”
$30 for a “passport card.”
Not sure I know what a “passport card” is.
Maybe the precursor of the Enhanced Drivers License?
Anchor baby. Classic.
This is why so-called birthright citizenship is national suicide. Born here or not, he’s not an American, and he absolutely should be deported.
you need a passport. not a birth certificate.
Was he deported for being a Mexican or a Republican? With this administration you can never tell.
I could understand this guy not speaking English if he was born here 75 to 90 years ago. Education requirements were much different during the depression. But 38 yrs ago access to schools and education requirements were much different. Plus, even if his parents are here illegally, since he was born here he had a social security number and the ability to get a drivers license or some other type of free Government ID. How is he getting his benefits? This just doesn’t pass the smell test.
The passport card is a nicety extended to border state residents. They were accustomed to passing over the border unmolested. When the 9/11 response kicked in, the cards were offered as a cheaper option than a full blown passport. It only gets you back into the US from Canada and perhaps Mexico. I never bought one so I’m not sure. When I return from Canada, they just add me to the non-compliant list and pass me in.
No fargin way.
He must have voted Republican.
That’s right.
On of the so-called `Reconstruction amendments: the 13th, 14th and 15th, they were passed in the years following the Rebellion/Civil War/War of Northern Aggression to protect the civil rights of former slaves.
They were never intended to serve as an `All-y all-y in come free!’ for our `Cousin Eddie’ neighbors to the south, vis a vis their anchor children, chain immigration: parents, abuelos, aunts, tios, grandmas, nephews, shirt-tail relatives and family friends.
During `Operation Wetback’—when we had a southwestern border—I’m sure Eisenhower’s border patrol were instructed to tell “guests” who had worn out their welcomes:
“You’re going back home and you’re taking your kids with you, unless you want them adopted out ... Decide now.
“
Even here we see daily some sad sack of chit posting: “We can’t deport them all. Let’s be realistic, gosh, we’ll just have to raise the white flag, give up, surrender ... sigh.”
I’m sick of their puling and whining about “Let’s look for a fight we can win,” and “let’s not joist at windmills!”
Miserable excuses for Americans, much less conservatives. If the WWII generation was the “greatest,” ours must be saddled with some of the worst, visitors from the DUmp, I suppose.
Born in East L.A.
and Cheech got the runs in Mexico ,Chong didn’t ,LOL
That was Up In Smoke.
It’s persona non grata treatment. It happens and sometimes they just threaten you with it for ‘other’ reasons.
