Mexico was an unfamiliar place for 19-year-old Manuel Antonio Cano-Pacheco. He was only three years old when his parents brought him to the United States – without a visa.

In 2015, as a teenager in Des Moines, Iowa, he qualified for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, the initiative spearheaded by President Barack Obama to give temporary protection to undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children. Cano-Pacheco gained DACA status and with it, a work permit, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

But then he was arrested and convicted on two misdemeanor drug charges.

. He requested and was granted voluntary departure after he was convicted in Iowa of two additional misdemeanors, including for driving under the influence.


Lot of components to this story:

One it seems that he had been arrested four times

His illegal alien father in is prison for drug offenses

His girl friend had his child which we now get to support

And finally why is it somehow American's fault that Mexico is a violent s-hole country?

It is America’s curse to have a s***hole country as a neighbor. If only we could have had Switzerland!

CNN ran with this sob story and a liberal friend posted it on FB, so I decided to try to figure out why this kid’s fate was Trump’s fault. Tried and tried. Can’t even imagine why.

Sounds like the MEXICAN people ought to do something about that...like hold THEIR gov. accountable, and if THEY refuse, kick THEM out.

Sounds to me like he was on a road to getting killed no matter where he lived...

I was invited to the son’s wedding of a work colleague which was beautiful. On the way to the reception, a drunk illegal alien ran a red light, instantly killing the mother and father of the bride. He was jailed, but the judge released him on $100K bail, insisting that a higher bail would be “discriminatory”, despite arguments that he was a flight risk? He quickly disappeared and has not been since since, so don’t expect any boo-hoos from me for anyone who is here illegally.

Here is the bottom line of the story: OBAMA LIED TO YOU

The result: YOU DIED. Obama and then left gets a political talking point.

Thank you for playing.

How about we don’t. Mexico should be a dynamic economic powerhouse.

Parents do all sorts of rotten things to their children. Taking them illegally to a foreign country is just one of them.

Turn it aound:

You invade Mehico, get arrested 4 times, knock up some chiquita down there, finally get deported DECADES later:

“The Mexican Prez is super mean.”

Gosh I wonder how many people would sympathize.

Go to the article and look at the comments. The corrupt media is having a difficult time fooling people these days.

Why has there never been a call for ‘regime change’ in Mexico?

Seems to me the Mexican government is responsible - directly or indirectly - for far more rapes, murders, political and cultural poison to Americans than the likes of Assad, Kadaffi, Hussein, et al ever was.

And somehow this is myfault because I back border enforcement.

So does this paper get all blustery when some illegal alienkills a US citizen?

No our problem and reflects his choice of friends and circumstances. For us, at least he will not be returning to the US and committing more crimes here. On that note, a very good news report.

The judge should be removed from the bench.
