Is ours not more screwy with gerrymandering? In what way do you mean less screwy? Genuine question, please don’t get mad :)

He banned Muslims entering the country. He separated children we are just now reuniting with their families. Obama had implemented a military employment plan that was tied to citizenship apparently. Trump tried to wash people out then deport them if I understood properly.

>They went and did when Bush-Cheney called. Then got stiffed.
Seems to be a recurring theme throughout that story

They aren't bragging. This article comes from an investor meeting. They HAVE to tell their investors.

Exactly. This should be the standard, it's only uplifting because Nintendo is one of the few corporations that actually treats their employees well.

Never should they ever have been deported.

Digging around all I can find is this same copy and pasted article. I want to know what he was actually charged with originally. I found some disturbing stuff about a guy with a similar name but I cant be sure its this guy.

Certain political rights do not extend themselves to non citizens. (I know…sucks). Also remember that serving in the armed forces is a choice. All members are basic riflemen irrespective of mos.

Many of these guys were permanent residents, green card holders, who hoped to get citizenship as one of the benefits of joining.
They got screwed.
They all deserve citizenship and their spouse & kids as well.
The US also screwed many interpreters, guides and other staff in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan. They deserve refuge status in the US at minimum.

No you do not! In the US as far as I know anyone can join (maybe not countries we have beef with?) but after you serve your required duty you can apply for citizenship. You should get it no problem. However, if you committed a crime before you're a citizen you can be deported.

join the U.S. military, non-citizens must be living permanently and legally in the United States. Non-citizens must also have permission to work in the United States, possess an I-551 (Permanent Residence Card), have obtained a high school diploma and speak English.
Undocumented immigrants are generally barred from serving in the military, though occasionally (especially in times of military need) an undocumented person might be allowed to join the armed forces in spite of this rule.
If you are serving or have served in the U.S. armed forces and are interested in becoming a U.S. citizen, you may be eligible to apply for naturalization under special provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).

I suppose that’s what you say to people who have lost a loved human, such as “I’m sure you created many loving memories with your father that can be cherished forever”
Great idea homie

If you go even further back, there was a bunch of people who thought kids watching TVs was rotting their brains and ruining their imagination.
But oh look, a bunch of those kids became creative movie-makers themselves later.

Yep. It wasn’t some recruiter telling them they could become citizens. It was the POTUS. Then the military apparently didn’t do too much to make sure their paperwork was in order. Or even bother to tell them there was paperwork.
