Dude...what do you think were all of those that have been paraded around in the media by "DreamActivist" and "change.org"??? They were all fugitives, and yet they were all let out of detention in case DREAM passes. Some of them have only been here 5-7 years. Many have just recently enrolled in college. Many have had brushes with the law for reasons other than immigration. Yes, you were brought here as a minor, yet once here, you decided your behaviour. Some knew of their oder and ignored it; others had one in absentia. The order is still outstanding until the deportation is executed. Being let out of jail doesn't erase it. So they are all NOT under the color of law. Just think , what's the point of allowing them to remain if they won't qualify? They will be forced to litigate their cases and pay thousands of dollars unless they change that rule. How many know about the fugitive doctrine? Or more challenging, how many were told by their attorneys that such an option exists?

Every immigration case is individual - I wish nothing but luck to all of us.

P.S. Whose unfortunate picture is that in your profile?
