Allow him to stay? He has a criminal record. Are criminals now exempt from laws too?[/quote]

The appropriate response with all the Iraqis in this country who are not violent criminals would be to offer them temporary protected status. Anyone brought here as a child who has grown up here like this man should be offered a path to citizenship.

He was here illegally, and he's been committing crimes since 1998, when he was 13 or 14. Why should we offer him a path to citizenship? [/quote]

Because Iraq.[/quote]
What dies that mean? You'd think that an adult, knowing he is here illegally, would not draw more attention to himself by committing crimes against Americans. It said he's now 34, and his. Rimes date back 21 years - to 1998. So he was a criminal beginning at age 13. Why would we want to make someone like that a citizen! [/quote]

We would want to make him a citizen because we are a humane country (or so we tell ourselves). He did not choose to come to this country, but was brought as a child. Leaving him without status is not a solution. Deporting him to his death is inhumane. [/quote]

He also had a choice as to how to conduct his life as an adult. He chose wrong.[/quote]

He had a serious mental illness that prevented him from living his life “as an adult” as you define it.  He didn’t choose that.

But what a surprise, you have zero empathy or compassion for anyone but yourself.[/quote]

That is what the immigration attorney said.  We have no way of knowing if that is accurate.  [/quote]

Exactly.  Because surprisingly, sometimes, attorneys don’t tell the truth.[/quote]
Noooo...attorneys have to be the most honest profession!

Hahahahahahahahaha[/quote]
