“Oh yea? If you liked US so much why’d u leave huh???”
Lucky him.
interesting to see how Trump just stepped up enforcement of a law signed by Clinton
There’s a ton of fluff in that article and the way you wrote that comment means you didn’t even read it or keeping up with what the Donvict is doing. The IIRIRA, according to the article, made deportation easier and harder to enter the country based on convictions. Convictions for a crime is key here because that means you had a trial by jury and found guilty after being accused of a crime. The Donvict declared arbitrarily that being illegal is a crime in a country where you are innocent until proven guilty. Nobody is even getting a trial and being sent to random countries. He made his own illegal loophole and using bits and pieces from every immigration law so people can’t keep up. Also from the article, the republicans started the bill and the democrats went with it so let’s cut the bullshit and inform yourself with less poorly written articles.
What a garbage site, and garbage article. The first 14 paragraphs do nothing but repeat the headline and sell ad space.
Here ya go:

No, not me! I voted for Trump. I’m white! I’m whiiiiitttteeeee!
Landry says he goes to Canada at least once a year and has never had a problem until now.
What’s different this year? Say it Landry. Say it.
Nope, today, he’s brown.
There are woke policies this year that’s why
When asked about it he said, “I thought we were only going to oppress brown people. I’m white. This is completely unacceptable.”
Wah wah wah
The man, who supported President Donald Trump though he can’t vote, says he “feels differently” now and blames the administration for his immigration plight.
“No, don’t hurt me, hurt those other people!”
Dude isn’t allowed to vote for legalization of marijuana, because he got caught possessing marijuana. Now I’m not sure how democracy is supposed to work, but I’m fairly certain he’s supposed to be able to vote for representatives in a Democratic Republic to legalize such.

Dude isn’t allowed to vote for legalization of marijuana, because he got caught possessing marijuana.
Just to clarify, he’s not able to vote because he’s a Canadian citizen and not because of his past convictions.
Wait the guy has lived here since 3 years old on a green card and never became a full citizen somehow? The guy has 5 kids and has lived here legally for 43 years (assumably). The fact that he isn’t automatically naturalized is rediculous.
The times, they are a-changing

I assume you mean those dastardly brown people. Down with the brown! /s
As a Canadian citizen, he couldn’t vote for president, but he supported Donald Trump.
“I was definitely all for ‘Make America Great Again,’ and having a strong, unified country, and a bright future for my five American children, but now I feel a little differently,” he said. “I’ve been torn from my family. My life has been disregarded completely.”
And here I was afraid there was no justice left in the world. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
seems like a traitor to canada.
no no sir, those are not your American children. those are you illegal children whom will be deported soon.
thanks dismantling of birthright citizenship!
I still haven’t wrapped my head around this one. Wasn’t birthright enshrined in the constitution? How can it be dismantled?
Because they do what ever they want… it takes years to appeal a single case so they are just steamrolling hundreds and hundreds….
(And the Supreme Court simply takes a red pen to change whatever they want… )
Again, how? You can’t take someone’s citizenship away if not through court, right? What excuses are judges using to do that?
That’s the neat part… ICE doesn’t even have to go through a judge to deport someone. They can just kinda do it… and it’s been an issue for YEARS. Only now they were allowed to go into overdrive, completely unchecked.

So they don’t have to strip citizenship, they just send people to other countries and move on with their day. Then the courts are so swamped with appeals that it’s likely most will just give up and make a new life in the other country.
Mental! Thanks for the answer.
So is the separation of church and state.
And the right against unreasonable search and seizures.But it turns out writing it down doesn’t make it so. It’s not a fundamental law of the universe. It has to actually be upheld and defended for it to do anything. Until the American people do something they’ll just keep walking all over it.
The difference is that citizenship is about papers. It’s a law about law. So how are they circumventing it to pull citizenship from people? Operationally, how is it done.
If you show the person at the border your paper, and they still won’t let you in, it doesn’t matter that you have the paper. It is just that simple. It’s illegal, but when the people who are supposed to be enforcing the laws are the ones breaking them, there isn’t any real recourse short of a popular uprising.
They have some nutty interpretation that when the amendment was written the writers didn’t mean for it to apply to everyone. Basically it’s something like the children of noncitizens owe allegiance to the country of their parents, so they don’t count. The bit they’re trying to use is what prevents e.g. children of diplomats from gaining citizenship.
Thank you for actually answering my question.
maga has infected the minds of canadians, probably albertans.
In 2004 and 2007, Landry faced charges of marijuana possession and driving with a suspended license, but he says he’s had no criminal record since then.
Hoo-boy, sounds like he was asking for it, one of them criminals I keep hearing about. Thin blue line, right folks?
He was clearly an unacceptable danger to society with that kind of record! After all, people who broke laws once, forfeit all their rights, right?
/s In case someone wants to take my crown.
You sir, are not the world’s dumbest man. I doubt I am either, but I would bet I’m dumber than you.
We should fight about it.
Paper-scizzors?
I choose paper! Let’s see what you pick!
Would be hilarious if his absolutely “heinous crime” was an unpaid parking ticket from 20 years ago. Can’t just have those people wandering around breathing US freedom air.
it was weed i think.
Most parking tickets aren’t crimes. They’re something even less serious: civil infractions. Which makes it even funnier … all those people who stole candy bars or got in bar fights, for example, they’re the real criminals.
This is exactly what he wanted, but too stupid to realize it.
On the bright side, that’s at least one fewer MAGAts in the country.
Unfortunately, he came back home, and now we’re stuck with him.
goddammit
🎵 O Canada, take back your MAGA lad 🎵
His understanding is under sized
Please ban him everywhere, both far and wide
Canada is almost as right-wing as their neighbour.
I’m sure he can find many likeminded people there.“whatabout” something that has nothing to do with the story.
Not a whatabout.
this moron again
