“I feel like I dedicated 10 years of my life serving my country," Mrs. Perez said. “I served in Afghanistan. I was willing to die for my country. I was always very patriotic.

“But now I feel like this isn't fair — I have to wait at least 10 years before I can be with my husband again. It does frustrate me.

“I feel betrayed,” she said. “I don’t like my country very much right now.".. Women marry illegal aliens and then think their husbands are suppose to never be deported. She served in the military now she thinks her love life should be taken into account, for she was in the military.How have any of you ever known of any in mexico when illegals are asked for id's with no id off to jail.There are no protests from mexicans,when people in the country illegally get deported and having a family illegally in mexico, I never seen anybody staging protests about breaking up families over there. Let an illegal from mexico get arrested here and deported and you see illegals demanding justice to halt the person from being deported.They certainly are 100% for deporting illegals in their own country.Mexicans are very self centered ,selfish people, whom only care for their own .I never see anyone in mexico protest mexico's immigration laws.

You make very good points. When the article is rewritten to reflect this, it changes the whole mood:

“It was three years ago, early morning, when US citizen Elizabeth Perez returned to her Cleveland home from the doctor’s office with good news to tell her Mexican citizen husband, Marcos: She was pregnant with their second child.”

http://www.immigrate2usa.com/practiceareas/non-immigrant-visas/marrying-a-foreign-national-1.asp

In general, it can take approximately six to twelve months for a foreign national to receive United States permanent residence (green card).

(This applies if the) foreign national has entered the country legally, with a valid visa (or visa exempt) and I-94 (little white entry card - or sometimes green entry card).

If the foreign national has entered illegally, or without inspection, there is little that can be done without the foreign national leaving the country, and most likely being subject to the possible three or ten year bars to return to the United States.

Deportation breaks apart families in Ohio, across nation
All crime breaks apart families and sneaking into a Country ILLEGALLY and staying there ILLEGALLY makes one a criminal.

Whatevah, I went up to Walmart to buy a little food. My hubby and I work and aren’t rich. I watched her type pull out their ebt card and get free food, dresssed nicely, walk out the store, and get in a brand new car.

So life sucks, the best people like us get is that we don’t get deported, we get stay and pay for her type.

The author of this piece of propaganda can go to hell and Elizabeth Perez: f-you for taking your honorable service to this nation and attempting to use it as a tool of emotion to sway people to approve of your lawlessness.

Which is the same thing I’d say if you had committed armed robbery.

Sad. Tragic stories. Horrible that things like this happen. I didn't see it mentioned but many were/are encouraged by businesses and government to come here no matter what.

But what about another aspect of all this?

ILLEGAL alien crime and ILLEGAL alien immigration reform screwing the ones who followed the law.

Dear ruling class: pay more attention to elimnating ILLEGAL alien crime and MAKE SURE that reform DOES NOT screw legal immigrants two of whom, BTW, I sponsored and both are now citizens!

ILLEGAL alien crime. Is it true as Congressman Steve King reported that daily about 25 people are killed by ILLEGAL aliens.. either by outright crime or DWI? Maybe this (below) is one of his sources. That's like a mass shooting every f'in day!

From a GAO study requested by Congressman Steve King of Iowa in 2005 PDF file here

.. 55,322 illegal aliens, arrested at least 459,614 times.

Most of the arrests occurred after 1990 so I see these figures as the 16-year period.. 1990 - 2005.

55,322 illegal aliens, arrested at least a total of 459,614 times, averaging about 8 arrests per illegal alien.
Thirty-eight percent (about 21,000) had between 2 and 5 arrests,
32 percent (about 18,000) had between 6 and 10 arrests, and
26 percent (about 15,000) had 11 or more arrests.

700,000 criminal offenses, averaging about 13 offenses per illegal alien.

One arrest incident may include multiple offenses, a fact that explains why there are nearly one and half times more offenses (700,000) than arrests (459,614).

Almost all of these illegal aliens were arrested for more than 1 offense. Slightly more than half of the 55,322 illegal aliens had between 2 and 10 offenses.

About 45 percent of all offenses (700,000) were drug or immigration offenses.
About 15 (of 700,000) percent were property-related offenses such as burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and property damage.
About 12 percent (of 700,000) were for violent offenses such as murder, robbery, assault, and sex-related crimes.

I came in legally, got married, applied for a green card and eventually citizenship... It took years! I don’t have any patience with people who come in illegally and demand all short of rights! Go back to your country, take your spouse and children with you, and when you can return legally I will be the first one holding a “welcome” banner... but not one minute sooner.

Boo-hoo.... You should have taken first things first and followed the laws of the country you profess to love so much. I have no empathy for those that break the law.

There are ways to legally immigrate to the US. Use them. It won’t be to your immediate satisfaction schedule.....but to the pace the law demands.

A quote from Mr. Perez: “Oh, Jesus, it’s terrible. I want to be with my children. I want to be with my wife.”

That is very easy to remedy Mr. Perez: Your wife and children can move to Mexico City! See how simple?

“I feel betrayed,” she said. “I don’t like my country very much right now."..

Kind of like how half my family felt when they went through immigration legally over a period of 10 years, only to have a great lot of criminal freeloaders cross the border illegally and score big on liberal welfare lotto.

Am i missing something here? He was sent back home because he was here illegally,and his family made the conscious decision to stay here instead of going with him. When I was a kid if my dad got a job somewhere else we all moved to that location. This family was not tore apart they chose to separate.

Lawlessness breaks families apart.

It’s very common.

DD SS. These sob stories just about always include, deep in the text, the fact that these are repeat offenders.
They know how to game the system and they play the odds.
Sign the book as you enter or stay the fook out.

Mr. Perez has been deported twice. As punishment, he isn’t allowed to even apply for a visa until 2020.
The couple has discussed ways to be reunited. Mrs. Perez said she is willing to move to Mexico to be with her husband. He has suggested they find another homeland, perhaps Canada. Mr. Perez has talked about trying to sneak back into the United States a third time, but he said that is very dangerous and expensive.
