Decent Denver man being ripped from his wife & kids over archaic immigration policy

[SeaGal]

Well I guess then you won't mind paying for his American born kids via our Welfare programs will you? The same with the Mexican women-she's got 4 kids born in this country and without their incomes--guess where they're going to go?

Lemme guess, not your house.

Removing these type of people isn't a solution, it only creates another problem. And it's because we have politicians that have said NO to every immigration reform bill that has come down the pipeline for the last 20 years. And guess who those politicians are? REPUBLICANS.

Never fails to amuse - the same voices against partisan politics are the first to bring partisan politics into the discussion - did you even read your signature?

The definition of Stupidity: Seeing the truth, knowing the truth, but denying the truth to repeat, promote & defend the lies. Partisan politics at it's best.

We have immigration law. It was a bipartisan law signed by Reagan. Granted amnesty to millions of illegals in exchange for border enforcement and other measures aimed at employers hiring illegals, etc. The amnesty happened, enforcement didn't so much. Let's try working within the framework of existing law before 'reforming' (code word for eliminating) it.

Now if you really want to do away with archaic law - let's repeal the Citizenship Clause in the 14th Amendment.

I have yet to hear a good Logic based argument in support of sanctuary cities. Lots of sob stories and Statue of Liberty quotes lol.

Lol crazy lady. Who is going to do the work when illegal aliens are deported hmmm how about legal Americans.. this argument is so weak it's funny. I love how liberals don't acknowledge how companies benefit from illegals because they don't have to pay them as much or give health care benefits.deportation of illegals hurt corrupt companies that are using them for unfair unlawful financial gain.. aren't liberals against this practice??

 

[bripat9643]

He started a business, paid taxes, contributed to his community, and achieve what used to be known as the American Dream?!

So? You can say that about our President.

U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet has introduced legislation to aid Arturo Hernandez Garcia, who spent nine months living in the basement of a Denver church to avoid deportation and was arrested on Wednesday by immigration officers for removal from the U.S.

“Arturo has been a valued member of our community for nearly two decades,” Bennet said in a written statement. “As a business owner, he has contributed to our economy and has always worked hard to support his family. He should not be a priority for deportation. This is yet another example of this Administration’s misguided immigration policies that do not align with our national priorities and values.”

Colorado immigrant advocates say arrest of Arturo Hernandez Garcia is an affront to sanctuary movement The Colorado Democrat’s office said a private bill for the relief of Hernandez Garcia comes as Bennet has reached out to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and asked for more time in processing his case.

Hernandez Garcia was at work on Wednesday morning when ICE officers detained him unexpectedly. In October 2014, he took refuge in the basement of a Denver church for nine months, returning to his family in July 2015, after ICE sent him letter saying he was no longer an enforcement priority.

“Hernandez Garcia has overstayed his original, six-month visa by nearly 14 years,” ICE spokesman Carl Rusnok said in a written statement Wednesday. “He has exhausted his petitions through the immigration courts and through ICE. He is currently in ICE custody pending his removal.”

Also in Denver, Colorado

A Mexican woman seeking to avoid deportation is taking refuge in a Denver church after U.S. immigration authorities denied her request to remain in the country.

Jeanette Vizguerra (vihz-GEHR'-uh) skipped her scheduled check-in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials Wednesday in suburban Centennial. About 100 supporters demonstrated outside the building as her attorney, Hans Meyer, and a minister went inside and was told Vizguerra would not get another extension.

Meyer says the mother of four has been trying to get a visa granted to crime victims and the government has typically given extensions during that lengthy process.

ICE says she is an "enforcement priority" because she has two misdemeanor convictions and a judge had issued a deportation order for her in 2011.

Vizguerra vowed to continue her fight for her children's sakes.

Have we turned into Nazi Germany? This is ridiculous.

They can go with him.

 

[oreo]

Garcia broke the law. Either we apply the law equally, ignore the law, or we allow the government to choose to apply, or not apply, the law based on their whim. There are no other choices.

Any further questions?

He's an illegal and should have been deported long ago. I couldn't care less how great a guy he is.

He's an illegal and what applies for one should apply for all. They are all here illegally and should ALL be deported.

Again then you shouldn't mind raising his American born kids on welfare until they're of age?

It's been the Republican party that has blocked any common sense immigration reform for 10 to 15 years now.

Marco Rubio--a Republican had a plan 4 years ago that they refused to even listen too. So we must assume that this is the 2.0 extension to the Republican Party's Family values platform. Their Christian values at work again--LOL Split em up and move em out.

I wonder how much this is going to cost the taxpayers in welfare and other social services programs?

Funny but I don't think Jesus Christ would approve of separating Husbands from wives and chldren or mothers from their children and families.

"Common sense immigration reform" is a leftwing euphemism meaning "amnesty." The American people blocked that. They are overwhelmingly opposed to it.

Like "common sense" gun control?

Any time those words appear before a subject, its code for "give us our way or we will whine like spoiled toddlers"

Build a wall, start deporting the bad ones, if we get a few of the "good ones", oh well.

Once this is done modify our laws to allow for more legal immigrants if we need them.

Again enjoy your extreme stance--which is no immigration reform--while you're paying out for these American born kids. You can raise them on the taxpayer dollar.

 

[Edgetho]

Wouldn't it be nice if America could send its bottom 10% to another Country..... Then have them turn around and send BILLIONS back into our economy??

That's what Mexico does. Instead of Welfare, instead of creating jobs, the socialist scum in Mexico (yes, Virginia; they are) simply tell them, "We don't want you here. You are not welcome. You are Mestizo. Go North and send money home to support your parents."

Mexico is one of the most racist countries there is. They HATE their Mestizo population. Which is quite a big percentage.

So they send them here.

The ONLY reason dimocrap FILTH are interested in the plight of beaners is because they are a BIG part of the racist 'obama coalition'.

Anybody know who the head of the DNC is? Think that's an accident??

dimocrap FILTH only care about expanding their power. Period. They couldn't care less about others.

Just a FACT.

dimocraps are scum. Another fact.

If WALLS & FENCES worked there wouldn't be anyone crossing the border today. And if you would have actually read the article this man came over on a Visa--and applied several times to renew his visa or get a green card and was denied several times. By an archaic--barbaric Federal immigration policy--that Republicans have refused to reform for the last 10-15 years.

Here is a great video on the WALL--watch to the end and you see how much money we have already WASTED on walls and fences, then this video will move into another video on the terrain and issues associated with structural security. The ONLY WAY to secure the border is with high tech motion detectors and more border patrol stations. Anything they can see can and will always be compromised. (Congress will not appropriate money for another worthless POS wall, and they have already stated that.)

There is immigration reform in my plan, legal immigration reform once we handle the illegals.

The kids can stay as wards of the State until they hit 18, then they are free to do what they want. I suggest enlisting.

No one's separating families. Do you know Jesus?...then you know he tasked each of us to help provide for others in need - to reach into our pockets, to give generously. I can't quite put my finger on the verse where he gives you permission to reach into your neighbors pocket to 'give' generously.
