Man Facing Deportation Gets 30 Day Reprieve
Man Facing Deportation Gets 30 Day Reprieve

PHOENIX - It's been debated back and forth over the past few months.
Should illegal immigrants who want to join the armed services or attend college be allowed to stay in the states and work towards citizenship?
A high profile example of this case is playing out on Tuesday.
Supporters held a rally for Pedro Gutierrez Sunday night. He was brought to the U.S. from Mexico by his grandmother when he was 7-years-old. He says that if he is forced to go back to Mexico, he would be a John Doe in a strange land with no ID or birth certificate.
Had the Dream Act passed, he would have been able to become a U.S. citizen by either attending college or joining the military - something he aspired to do. He wants to become a Marine and serve his country.
At a deportation hearing in Phoenix Tuesday morning, Gutierrez received a 30 day reprieve.
"There's a glimmer of hope now. It's not guaranteed that I might stay for sure..but I'm gonna take it one step at a time," said Gutierrez.
His lawyer says this is a kind of limbo situation for Pedro, but it is good news because it gives them 30 more days to come up with a case for him to be able to stay in this country.
Gutierrez wants to join the Marines and attend college, but can't because he doesn't have a green card or enough money. The 22-year-old is hoping that the Dream Act will eventually become law and he'll be a citizen.
In the meantime, Gutierrez cannot work.

Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

I want to be rich, beautiful and thin, and I can't. So what - I'm old enough for my wants not to hurt me, and so is this illegal.
The article didn't mention why he was at a deportation hearing - the military is not for criminals. Those days are long gone. Many US citizens cannot work either - they can't find a job because it was taken by an illegal.
There is a Mexican consulate office in every city in the US, and they can get him his birth certificate. His grandmother was a Jane Doe in a strange land when she brought him here. And, pray tell, where are his parents?
This is not his country. He needs to go back to Mexico which needs his service a lot more than we do.
Adios amigo.
