Ask HN: Refuge Brother Deported

3 points by linuxnba 7y ago ↗ HN

I have a brother that got deported 2017 July for petty crimes trespassing , domestic violence 4 for argument with his wife , we both are from Somalia we came here 2001 he is 32 years old.

My mother helped me get my citizen but unfortunely he didn't get his stuff in order he chose the american dream of chasing money and didn't take advantage of America for what it really is a place of opportunity to succeed and be anyone you want to be.

He got deported from County jail not prison he has prior conviction and felony records from years ago.

Is there any chance he would be able to return? I didn't think a Refuge status here in America is eligible for deportion we left Somalia because of War and violence and now he got deported back to it.

What can he do in his situation to get out of Somalia? He shows me videos of being out there the violence and war still going on it's a horibble place to live.

It breaks my heart to see him there. i want to help him return here I think he got deported illegally.

He learned it in USA not in Somalia. That is not fair to Somalia.

trust, Somali boys behave bad in the west not in Somalia. I went back to Somalia after 27 years and saw very educated youth and wanted to change their country for better if they are left alone by some powers.
