My grandfather came here from the Philippines, served our country during WWII and the Korean War, got his citizenship and never dealt drugs, nor get deported for any other crime... because he didn't commit one. Millions of Americans Veterans find out that they're entitled to nothing, once they commit that felony... go ask many of them that are on the street. I'm a Disabled Marine Corps Veteran, that spent 13.5 years in and have NO sympathy for those that commit felonies. As a man of he cloth, I will have compassion for them though. Just because you serve, doesn't mean you're exempt from being a law-abiding citizen.

What a stupid propaganda. Anyone, even American citizen veterans, aren't given a "free ride" for criminal acts. As immigrants, all need to understand they can be removed from the country when they commit a crime no matter the "good deeds."
