A Marine veteran with post-traumatic stress disorder was held for three days for possible deportation before federal authorities learned the 27-year-old is a U.S. citizen born in Michigan, lawyers said Wednesday. Jilmar Ramos-Gomez was a lance corporal in the Marines and received awards for service in Afghanistan.
"He was decorated with a national defense service medal, a global war on terrorism service medal, an Afghanistan campaign medal, and a combat action ribbon, among other awards," the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan said Wednesday in a statement.
"Why did they think he was a non-citizen? Did they get him confused with someone else? Who knows," ACLU attorney Miriam Aukerman said. "This is an individual who's incredibly vulnerable with a mental illness."

They found out he was a citizen, he was no longer subject to deportation. The system works.

It's interesting how the same people that love government and want to make it bigger are shocked when government doesn't work very well. You know what would help with this? A wall.

If you want to abolish the IRS or Dept of Education you are some sort of dangerous radical kook
Get rid of border enforcement? Mainstream issue -
