I don’t have a problem with this.
He has never lived in Mexico, it is not his home- to send him there now would be bad for him.
This particular case is a problem ONLY because for the last 30 years WE DID NOT ENFORCE the law.
In fact I would go so far as to say the real problem here is suddenly trying to enforce the law after 30 years of failing to do so.
We have to address the issue of what to do with people we ignored, like illegals who have never known their home country, or people who have lived here for 20 years and have a good job and house.
But the people who came last year and went right onto welfare? SHIP ‘EM HOME NOW~! HOW DO ILLEGALS GET WELFARE?????
I don't either. I have a hard time finding the mens rea of a 22-month-old baby. The guy seems like a serious student and likely the kind of person we out to welcome to the states.
But if he is not already naturalized, now is the time. It would be a great gesture of his faith in this country.
