DEPORTATION-FAIR OR UNFAIR

There's a lot of talk in the media about immigration. Some of these reporters sound like they are experts on any topic they run their mouths about. Someone is telling them what to say I believe. Dictating word for word on a teleprompter. And then to re-enforce their beliefs they bring guess speakers who were former something. Funny how most of them are introduced as former or past cop, lawyer, judge etc. I wonder what's in it for them to come on and put in their two cents. Not all stories are negative but they do seem to focus mostly on the bad stuff. I seen one this week that gives me mixed emotions. If you have not seen it click the link here.

It's about a Pinay who came on a tourist visa. She long over stayed making her illegal. She even got married and had a baby. Tourist visas are hard to get and cases like this make it harder or slim chance anyone else will get one. I feel sorry for her and especially her husband who will now have to remain separated from her or join her in the Philippines if she gets deported. Because now she is banned for 10 years from reentering the USA. I do hope they can reach a happy compromise. It is her own fault, she could of went home and re-apply for another visa or wait for her husband to petition her. 

But back to what ticks me off about the media is why do they always blackball the ones who do things the proper way?Do you think they can report a story on someone who followed all the rules and show the world how happy and wonderful it can really be?  After all we went the distance and spent our money on their ridiculous fees, followed all the laws, rules and regulations they made.  We waited and waited for the answer as our fate is in their hands. Bit it doesn't make us worthy of a positive love story. Sad but true they only like the ugly stories. 

As we all know who's fault it is why we have an illegal population of foreigners here. All we can do is play by the rules and hope for the best. In my own opinion I can't determine what's fair or unfair because I don't like to see families broken up. I guess it's fair to say you get what you deserve. What's unfair is I/we paid for it. And I/we did it the right way.
