Brandon Salinas came to the U.S. as a child. At 17, he was caught with marijuana, arrested and later sent to an ICE detention center. Then, nearly a year later, he was left on the border of Mexico.

stupid ….
The day he turned 18 he should have got married and applied for citizenship
This is when u say F the police who deported him
He should've been sent to the military. Freedom it's Free. Mexicans that want's to be in our country should service America. The Mother needs to pay the fees for her green card. Also, she doesn't speak English fluently.
ICE are criminals.
Abolish the ICE.
this is so sad….
They should charge the illegal employers. Deport the parents. The children can remain, they didn't plan the illegal stay.
Donald trump I hate you for being cruel
i wanna know what his friends think too, because who knows if that one friend wouldn’t have sped off, things might’ve been different
7:37 and I'm wiping my eyes :'(
F
America is one of the worst countries in the world…trust me I haven't been there but from what I see it is one of the worst yet still people is still going there. I mean white people get more privileges than blacks and other race, the justice system does not support the blacks it is terrible 🙄
why in the world would you not apply for citizenship. that's such bullshit. for weed? ridiculous!
He needs to get an attorney to make a petition for a presidential pardon from president Biden
So Sad
At the end of the day its NOT okay to be here illegally. If it was the other way around Mexicans would be keeping us out as well period. We have LAWS! His mother dis this to him not this country.
He got deported because of Marijuana that is Uncalled for! The Judge is a Prick(Trump follower) a ticket was to be issued not Deportation……The reporter asked why & response was to keep them out,who? Americans came in a Boat, Mexicans never came from a boat this is their LAND along with the Indigenous population!
In life, there's always a teaching behind every lesson. No one under this sun is perfect, everyone make mistakes it's a human thing. We all learn from every mistakes we do. I hope and pray that this error will bring peace to this mama. Stay strong
The really sad part is that the mother was not deported as well.
Weed is legal and r u gonna deport someone for weed ????
I wonder if he lived in another country besides the US would he have been deported after being caught with marijuana? Or is it just the US who deports people who commit a crime?
He handsome boy. 😍
The reality is even if you have a green card, you may be deported. Just like if you are in another country, you need to obey all the laws. It’s sad but living in America is a privilege. I am a naturalized citizen so I appreciate what being an immigrant is. Deporting is cheaper and easier for law enforcement. It’s a difficult dilemma.
All because of some stupid president this happens to people who deserve to be here weed shouldn't be deported for that
Then deport the Southern Region Anti-Law Center.
YOU JUST RUINED THIS YOUNG MANS FUTURE..LET HIM RETURN TO HIS FAMILY..IN THE USA..SUERTE TO BRANDON AND HIS FAMILIA!!
those others should have been charged that is not fair to the boy
Keep the faith folks karma gives you a fighting chance if it don't deport you first. Best of luck everything is temporary. Watch what you put your efforts to.
