You should take up your own suggestion. I am the "real" American. You my friend, base on the criterion of English skills, you should be concern about your citizenship.

Oh wow, I tried really hard to avoid calling you stupid. Sir, you're a moron. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 04:34:59 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68950293 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68949482 Dude, where? Copy and paste a line in which you can somehow infer the rambling you're accusing me of. Do you seek help to tie your shoes every morning? Are you really this thick? First you're making fun of "real Americans" by calling yourself one. Now you're making fun of military by saying you were one of them.

In my last post, I have stated a fact: "For example, a legal resident can be deported if he/she has committed a serious crime." An interpretation of what she said: "In this case and I am obviously making an assumption base on her words, is that she seems to have taken the position of a resident of sort, instead of the position of a citizen" Then last but not least, my input on her situation, which is to hire a lawyer to solve her citizenship issue because "I think she has a case that she is a citizen". But somehow I lack American values, and I support back door access to our system? I dictate what is right or wrong? Sigh..."real" Americans would be embarrass to be anywhere near you.

I'll just ignore your comment about me breaking down facts, which lacks logic. "Your going to base your opinion on the level of the crime she committed while illegal on whether or not to deport?" No, the law does. For example, a legal resident can be deported if he/she has committed a serious crime. In this case and I am obviously making an assumption base on her words, is that she seems to have taken the position of a resident of sort, instead of the position of a citizen, which she seems to have a case for. Hence I said that she should hire an immigration lawyer as soon as possible and obviously to argue her case that she is a "citizen".

Or is it you who truly believes it to be the next Messiah. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 03:21:57 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/tech/91552144.html#IDComment68942614 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68942121 Let me try to break it down to you so you might understand this better... 1. Her claim was that she's a US citizen and never thought she wasn't. Her supporting evidences were she went to college here, she paid taxes (assuming she worked as well), and an assumption she failed to address, which is she married a US citizen??? 2. She committed a crime and admitted to guilt. Don't mix two separate issues together as a single deciding point. Her ultimate goal right now is to fight off the deportation. I believe she has a very valid case (base on the article) and if she proves #1, she would reach her goal. Personally I think it was a bad judgement to mix the two separate issues together as the article was written: "I do not deny my bad choice. I am not a drug trafficker. I've never sold a drug in my life, but I do not deny that I should have never put myself in that position," she said. "There was never any violence in my crime. Those pills were for personal use. They never saw me selling, delivering any kind of drugs. There was never any money exchanged. I'm not involved in any terrorist group or a gang." Base on the above comment, she seems to have accepted that she's not a legal resident/citizen. However, she is trying to argue that should not be deported on the seriousness of her crime. Again, GET A IMMIGRATION LAWYER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND SOLVE THE CITIZENSHIP ISSUE!

Was your daughter's citizenship in question or was yours? Did your daughters ever work in the states and filed tax returns on themselves? The reason why I am asking is that I am trying to establish the similarity between your daughters (or you if I was confused) and the subject of the article. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 03:05:54 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68940928 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68935373 I am very confused by her legal status. If she is a citizen, she would have at minimum, a valid SSN card. So if she has a valid SSN and reports her taxes every year, wouldn't she have discovered any discrepancy of her citizenship status far earlier? She needs a immigration lawyer ASAP... Tue, 20 Apr 2010 02:19:34 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68935373 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68935041 So to you, justice should be practice in absolute terms. So let's throw away our judicial systems and fire all the judges. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 02:16:31 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91560944.html#IDComment68935041 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68925719 Again, you're calling others stupid for taking "calculated" risk. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 00:55:02 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68925719 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68925657 You called these victims stupid, so certainly you think you are smarter than these guys. Just because you don't take any risk does not make you smart than someone who took calculated risk. The very definition of risk has potential downfall, but a calculated person is willing to accept that. Tue, 20 Apr 2010 00:54:28 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68925657 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68925349 Here are the flaws of your statements. "Completely researched" is a variable that depends on your knowledge, and potentially can put you at risk. "Proper agencies" is another flaw and another potential risk. What exactly is proper, is Goldman Sach proper? So don't be so quick to call others stupid, and you may fall under these schemes as well.

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 23:26:41 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68915774 http://www.komonews.com/news/tech/91552144.html#IDComment68913530 This news alone is probably credited for an additional 6 figure income for Gizmodo in terms of advertising revenue. iPhone is huge right now and is certainly news worthy. I am only surprised that it took a little while for local media to publish this. Mon, 19 Apr 2010 23:07:07 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/tech/91552144.html#IDComment68913530 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68913196 We hear about these victims, yet we don't hear about some of the other investors who got out ahead, which there must be at least a few. People continue to fall for these schemes because they think they can beat the system. Just look at the housing market. Even knowing the future of impending doom back in 2002-2003, it is still the wisest idea to invest a fortune into the market. The only difference between a losing investor and an extreme wealthy ones is knowing when to get out. These latest "victims" are probably ones that weren't smart enough to get out in time once again.

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 22:52:46 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68911853 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/91534964.html#IDComment68911679 You'll be surprise. You're probably a victim of a scheme yourself or have been and do not realize it. There are these types of schemes everywhere, and you will only hear about the big ones.

Where did you come up with that conclusion. Fri, 16 Apr 2010 10:59:14 +0000 http://www.komonews.com/news/local/90996704.html#IDComment68356483
