DENVER (AP) - A congressman was seeking deportation of a Mexican family after he read an article about how one son couldn't afford college because federal law bans financial aid for illegal immigrants.
Rep. Tom Tancredo said he contacted the Immigration and Naturalization Service and asked that Jesus Apodaca, 18, and any other undocumented relatives be deported.

"This is an arrogant use of power," said Mario Hernandez, a spokesman for the Mexican consulate in Denver. "This family is looking to improve the lives of their children."
Mario Hernandez should not only go pound sand, but he should be pounding sand in is nasty homeland. Expel the fifth-columnist along with the foreign scofflaw sponges.

They're looking to improve the lives of *their* kids. What about AMERICAN CITIZEN's kids???? How many inner city kids or kids on reservations could go to school if this family hadn't been here? This woman has been arrogantly abusing our SYSTEM for YEARS. (bet they have a big Mexican flag out front!) Send them all back!!!

If the INS was run like the BATF, every illegal alien in America would be deported or shot in one month.If the BATF was run like the INS, you could fire howitzers from your backyard day and night.
(I just want a list of federal laws that "really count" and will be enforced, and a list of federal laws that I can ignore.)

Indeed! I can't understand what the fuss is about when it comes to deporting people. The INS always says there are too many, etc. But a case like this drops in their lap, and we can read stories about it and the people are still here? For cryin' out loud, put them on a plane already! I don't see the need for discussion here, do you?

"I wish I had him here, face to face. I'd ask him, 'Do I seem like a bad person? Does my son seem like a bad person?'" said Apodaca's mother, Maria Madrid. "All I've ever wanted is that my son fulfills his dream" of going to college.
Maria Madrid is a rotten person, who should consider the consequences of her actions as she returns to Mexico with her family to seek financial aid to attend a school in their own country.

Why reward criminal activity? That's ridiculous. Deport the lot of them and let them wait in line like everyone else. These people are criminals and moochers.
To: Tancredo Fan
No, arrogant is giving a newspaper interview and laying all of your lawbreaking antics out there for all to read and thinking nobody will come after you.
Kick the leeches out.

A congressman was seeking deportation of a Mexican family after he read an article about how one son couldn't afford college because federal law bans financial aid for illegal immigrants. Stick this guy in the Senate.
To: AzJP
I wonder if it ever occured to Tancredo (and others) to muscle INS to get this guy legal? Great idea! We can solve the problem by passing a law making illegals legal!
Then we can solve the crime problem by making murder rape robbery and assault legal! Problem solved!
You are a genius! Why didn't anybody think of that before?
To: Frank_Discussion
Yup, probably income taxes, although IRS doesn't ask. There are illegals who pay IRS out of fear!
As for those pesky sales taxes, he's already paying as much as anyone.

If this kid is such a super kid, then I would love to have him become a legal American citizen. Do what it takes to become legal and you would be as welcome hear as anyone. Don't whine and snivel about wanting to improve your life, about having never done anything wrong when you are in the country illegaly! You got your free high school education, which I helped pay for, now either do the right thing, or leave! Nothiing personal, but the law stands!
To: Tancredo Fan
You go Mr. Tancredo!
At least someone is trying to do something about these 'undetained felons'.
To: Tancredo Fan
These illegal alien Mexi-pests were very arrogant to go public and use their real names. They deserve to be deported.
I see how one party offered to help pay some of the tuition. Maybe that's why their used their real names. Tom Tancredo is one the few congress critters who gives a damn!
