this Christian family, regardless of how deserving, did not follow our laws.

Do you have a lot of personal experience with our "laws"?

Can you afford top a topnotch mouthpiece?

Did you even read the story that you posted? Or are you just familiar with the family through chruch and school and have blinders on to what they actually did?

The requirements for a Student Visa are here. Let's not cloud the issue with facts.

Like the fact that Mr. Jong knew enough about U.S. Immigration laws to figure out how to apply for a Student Visa, not once, but twice. Like the fact that the second time he applied for the Student Visa was because he was "homesick for the midwest." Like the fact that on a student visa, you are not allowed to work more than 20 hours a week. Like the fact that you must be a full time student enrolled in an accredited institution and making normal progress towards the stated degree in order to maintain your student visa status. Like the fact that Mr. Jung knew he was in violation of his visa. In his own words: "I knew I had a problem with immigration," he said. "I was confused. I thought I could get by. At the same time, I knew I had to clean up the mess I'd made."

The story doesn't say why Mrs. Jung was arrested and not Mr. Jung, since it was Mr. Jung who applied for the F-2 student visa that allowed him to bring his wife and child. Why was she arrested? What are the charges? Why wasn't Mr. Jung arrested as well? You have the personal angle to this story, what is the rest of it?
