Thread: Immigrant Family Denied American Dream - Not What you think

I get the feeling that these people are legal immigrants. I feel the actions of Duetche Bank is appalling.

I support LEGAL immigration and legal immigrants.

I-Team: Immigrant Family Denied American Dream
Reported by: Jeff Chirico

An immigrant family from Scranton is denied the American dream, in part by a foreign bank that received bailout money. It's a story that underscores what some claim is a broken banking system. Consumer and I-team reporter Jeff Chirico here in the studio with a story you'll see only on Eyewitness News.

Lyatif Kadyrova doesn't speak much English but you can clearly see the stress in his and his family's faces. He, his wife, sons and pregnant daughter-in-law will be kicked out of their home in twenty minutes. Safiya Kadyrova says “we don't even know where to go.â€

The story reads "the immigrant family from Scranton" shouldn't it read "an immigrant family IN Scranton".
Where are they an immigrant from? And because the owner of the house(landlord) forecloses on the house does not give anyone the right to just say "I"ll buy it" and start paying for it. It has to go through legal channels first before the bank would put it up for sale again. That is not done over night or at the blink of an eye.

This has already started to happen in Florida some time ago.

The story reads "the immigrant family from Scranton" shouldn't it read "an immigrant family IN Scranton".

It is not my job to edit the news media's grammar.

Sorry Newmexican...my statement was not directed at you.......I meant the writer should have been more descriptive on the article.

It was tongue in cheek and I should have included a smiley - no offense taken.
