Maybe, just maybe, if we start enforcing the laws, people will start obeying them. Let him apply for admittance with special circumstances ....... from MEXICO.
Oh great.....let's just glut the courts more than they already are.
This is the best part:
"1969: Humberto Fernandez-Vargas entered the United States illegally.
1969-1981: Fernandez-Vargas was deported and re-entered the United States an unknown amount of times.
October 1981: Fernandez-Vargas was deported to Mexico.
January 1982: Fernandez-Vargas again entered the United States illegally."
A person who violates a deportation order is ineligible for a green card or even a visa.
Based on the timeline I'd say the article presents a very slanted view of the events in question.
What was Boston Blackie's occupation before he became an amatuer sleuth?
United States citizens have a right of access to the courts. If that right is extended to illegal aliens, then you can forget any kind of control over immigration at all. Our borders will be wide open. Or, as one Democrat said recently, it's illegal to cross the border illegally, but it's not illegal to be in the country illegally.
The prospect of spending money on police, jails, public defenders, and judges for every single illegal alien who gets into the country is simply inconceivable. You'd might as well just drop the whole idea of citizenship, and say that anybody who wants to come to America and live here is welcome to, and they can register with the Demcrats too, and get free schooling and medical care, and they don't have to pay social security or taxes.
In other words, a complete breakdown of our entire legal system, rendering the concept of citizenship meaningless.
Reporter incompetence AGAIN.
These are OLD stories, these happen EVERY DAY. I bet the reporter is being played by some lawyer looking for PR.
He lived in a state represented in congress by Amnesty advocates Orrin Hatch and Chris Cannon. So you can see how he was surprised when someone actually expected him to obey our laws.
While he's in Mexico, maybe he can work with the Mexican government to end the institutionalized corruption that drives jobs & investment out of what should be one of the world's richest countries............
He is married to US citizen and has a 16-year-old child with her.
I think deportation was uncalled for, when he voluntarily went to the CIS building to get his papers in order. As a spouse of a US citizen, he qualifies for permanent resident status.

Maybe this is the time for the USSC to put a smack-down on illegal immigration. This is a case to watch...
Hint: Don't marry a man who is committing a crime, because you never know when he'll be caught.
He's right. How did this guy get to stay for so long? Why wasn't he deported years ago?
