A Honduran teenager faces deportation after being charged with stealing an anti-immigration protest sign.
Joel Martines, 19, was arrested May 11 on charges he stole the sign outside a convenience store where day laborers seek work. The store has been the scene of protests supporting stricter enforcement of immigration laws.
While Martines was in custody, immigration authorities determined he entered the country illegally last year through Texas.

I'll take that bet if they send him back to Honduras. The Mexican Army is allegedly doing a pretty good job of policing their southern border.
Oh the irony of it!

Shouldn't the headline really read:
"Illegal Alien, facing deportation, also charged with theft"
