Looks like that didn’t generate a preview.


Grammy-nominated rapper 21 Savage was arrested in Atlanta early Sunday by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to ICE spokesperson Bryan Cox. The agency says he is illegally present in the United States.

ICE says that the rapper, whose real name is Shayaabin Abraham-Joseph, is a citizen of the United Kingdom, according to Cox. The agency alleges that he entered the US legally in July 2005, when he was a minor, but subsequently failed to depart under the terms of his nonimmigrant visa. ICE says Abraham-Joseph became unlawfully present when his visa expired in July 2006.

“Mr. Abraham-Joseph is presently in ICE custody in Georgia and has been placed into removal proceedings before the federal immigration courts,” ICE said in a statement. “ICE will now await the outcome of his case before a federal immigration judge to determine future actions.”

An attorney for Abraham-Joseph said his representatives were working to secure his release.
 
When ICE has the time and resources to pursue such threats to safety, then they surely have secured us against the bad hombres, the gangs, terrorists, and the drug and sex trade.
 
If I entered the UK, was working and making money there, and overstayed my visa or had the wrong one for the type of activity I was doing, their officials would likely come after me and attempt to deport me also. Same for just about every other country I have visited. This is no different.

From the article:
We’re told the rapper got on the radar of authorities following his 2014 conviction on felony drug charges.

Being involved in illegal drug trade is how he got caught.

How lucky we are that this is 21 Savage exemlfies that bad hombres that we need to go after.
ICE says that 21 Savage has a 2014 felony drug conviction, although an attorney who worked with the rapper to have his record expunged says the agency has its facts wrong and he has no felony convictions. The more shocking development is that he’s a U.K. national at all: not only has 21 Savage presented himself as an Atlanta local—he performed on Thursday with Lil Yachty and Ludacris at an Atlanta-themed concert—he’s also dedicated himself to charitable work in the local community. Last August, he hosted his third annual “Issa Back 2 School Drive,” which provided students in his old neighborhood with backpacks, school supplies, and even haircuts. Last spring, he went on Ellen to announce that he was sponsoring a financial literacy campaign for children

How many people did he hurt before he made his money from drugs and started helping people?

Is the conviction still active on his record?

What are you assuming here? Whom did he hurt? Do you have a link that supports the idea that he made his money from drugs?

One by one.

This arrest brings more publicity to the deportation program.

Get legal or get out.


The new report, “The Illegal Population Explosion: A Realistic Appraisal of its Actual Size, Implications for the Future, and Consequences for Public Policy Decisions and Citizen Activism,” was released at a News Conference at the National Press Club in Washington , D.C.

Four experts who contributed to the 45-page study explained their findings that illegal aliens in the U.S. total at least 20 million, but perhaps as many as 38 million or more – which far exceeds 8 to 12 million estimated by Homeland Security’s Office of Immigration Studies new report, “Estimates of the Unauthorized Immigrant Population Residing in the United States, January 2006” (released August 31, 2007, see http://www.dhs.gov/ximgtn/statistics . The new study disputing the government figures was funded by Californians for Population Stabilization (CAPS) (www.capsweb.org) and published by The Social Contract Press (www.thesocialcontract.com).

Meanwhile, the border is porous enough to allow replacements.
