Are you suggesting that he should have voluntarily left to go to a country he had no relationship with? I'm an immigrant and I had to wait a while to be legalized too, nothing about that experience leads me to believe that makes sense. This guy being kicked out is a slap in the face for justice and fairness. I'm not trying to invalidate your experience or tell you that you don't have the right to feel angry with people who voluntarily jump the line while you had to wait. But this guy didn't do that. Moreover, you keep repeating that it's the law that this guy had to be deported like that's the be all end all. The law itself is corrupt as it has been throughout American history. A rule being on the books does not mean its worth the paper it's printed on. It can still be unjust and worthy of being disregarded in certain circumstances. Using the law as a reason why you MUST take certain unjust actions is a dark dark pathway as has been proven over and over. also this guy is doing nothing but tugging at feelings --- http://imgur.com/a/GCAyA http://i.imgur.com/8ImkFTt.png http://i.imgur.com/iVota.gif http://i.imgur.com/vIs64.gif <cite>CEs_EFG posted [p:894268767] in 39 year ol...
