The immigration system in this country is terrible there is no other way around it. The fact that this man was raised here since 3 and still not given citizenship? Give me a break. There are far too many stories like this and what angers me the most is that nothing is being done to fix this. We must do better.

I am not sure how I feel about this.  This guy is a lifelong criminal and honestly I don't think people like that deserve citizenship.  His parents messed up when he was young, yes, but he could have taken the responsibility to fix that as an adult.  He should have looked into it instead of spending so much time and energy breaking the law.  So I think he deserves what he is getting and should have been more careful.

i feel like our countries immigration policies are ridiculous. how can you possibly deport someone who has lived her his whole life basically? That just doesn't seem right. We really need to rethink the way we do things in this country. this just isn't fair to anyone to be honest. I'm sure his family is upset.

I feel very sorry for this man and his awful life.  However, as I learn more about it it does seem "fair" that he get deported, and I feel less sympathetic for him because of his crimes.  Had he not had a criminal record I doubt he would have been deported.  Having said that, I feel extremely sympathetic for the abusive upbringing he had.  To get adopted by people who then abused him, then abandoned, adopted again and abused some more, is just unconscionable and repulsive.  And I'm sure it lead to his criminality, unfortunately.  This guy sure got dealt a bad hand, but is interestingly dealing with it well, it seems.  I'm not sure if that's a good sign or a bad sign for his future.

American system is really messed up. We let illegals get away with so many things and yet, this man, who was adopted and lived here almost his entire life, is facing deportation! He has a family of his own and I'm sure spent a good portion of his career paying taxes to the American government and now his life is in jeopardy-he has a family who is facing losing everything if he goes away!
