Can you believe the utter dishonesty of the reporting? The beginning of the article makes it sound like these people were pillars of the community, whereas they were targeted for deportation because of criminal behavior.
The NY Times never tells the who story so there is much more to this than meets the eye.
I hope those refugees who have redeemed themselves for their MINOR crimes will be given an exemption from deportation.
It has to be on a case by case basis.
