    If he wanted to come to America maybe he should've learned English and completed the immigration forms...just a thought.

    What's crazy is that they come here waving the Honduran flag, the flag of the same sovialist nightnare country they're fleeing.

    That’s his own damn fault. Follow the process and laws and crap like that won’t happen. Don’t give to shits. Should have been cut in half as a lesson to the rest of them.
