The Cambodian Immigrants Deported For Their Crimes

[@CatnapTheGoobero]

I'm Cambodian. When we got to America in 1983, my parents, especially my mom always told us to never cause trouble and to study hard. They said that we should always strive to do better than them. But they always stress that to never ever get into any trouble because we are foreign here in the states. She always said that this is America, not Cambodia. Follow rules and get a great education. We can build wealth and then we can go visit Cambodia to see if we want to go back one day. Thanks to my parents, i have always kept my nose clean and stay out of trouble. Applyed for citizenship for myself and the rest of my family. So glad I did it back in the early 1990's.

Dad knew I was always getting into some dum shit, and mom warned me every time I stepped out the door at night. My father became a citizen and urged me to do the same, but I was to stubborn and just wanted to chill with friends , my father passed away a few years later. And I lost my mind but mom pushed me back into the right direction, at 21 I became a citizen while in college in Pittsburgh. When I returned home most of the friends I used to chill with we're all deported back to Cambodia .as I got older I realised how important the warnings were and the lectures my parents gave me.

as a korean-american, I have absolutely zero sympathy for these criminals. My family also fled the aftermath of war and the cruel life that came about after the slaughter of 2 million of my countrymen in the span of 3 years. but I saw america as an opportunity. these criminals saw a free ride. It comes down to culture. when you come from a country with a strong cultural foundation of hard work, education, respect for the law and an incredible desire to succeed, you will flourish. when you come from a culture that doesn't promote those traits, you get tattoos on your neck and talk like a rapper. No wonder the english schools don't want them. Koreans have had it just as bad as cambodians if not worse throughout history. in 1950, our GDP was pretty much the same, but we thrived back at home and in America in just 1 generation. let this be a lesson, stop accepting immigrants from countries that produce subpar second generation citizens.

Darth Utah 66 none of them were born here. I guess you missed that part in the beginning. If they were born here you are a citizen regardless of the immigration status of your parents. All these people were born in Cambodia. They were refugees who’s families fled the turmoil in Cambodia in the 80s. One of the stipulations in taking refugees in was having the ability to deport habitual criminals back to Cambodia. They leave a lot out of the story in this clip. Including the fact it wasn’t these people’s first run in with the law that got them deported. Look at how many thousands were taken in and they said in this piece that around 500 over the years have been deported. That’s not a lot and again it’s not like they just did one thing wrong and got deported. The huge issue I have with this piece is how little accountability these people have. They say “America put me in this situation”, “THEY sent me here”, “THEY did me wrong” these people put themselves in the situation to be deported back to Cambodia. They even mentioned how the Cambodian locals have MO SYMPATHY for them because they view them as ruining their own “golden ticket” which is true. A little accountability goes a long way.

oh its so sad, he ONLY stole a few cars... yea, i bet he was intp other stuff, they only GOT him on the stolen cars...

[@johnmulder1927]

i made a mistake once. i ordered a bigmac with the pickle on it ....... while i like without.... thats a mistake... stealing cars and beeing a cirminal, shooting people up beeing a gangbanger......... is a choice. thugs are always sorry once they are caught.... the difference between a person with morals and the one without is the hcoice of doing so or not... not after the fact in beeing sorry baout it ..... theyre losers.... plain and simple

Why don't they fly out to Mexico and let the family meet up there?

[@suntansight608]

for what? what would be the point to go to Mexico but waist your money. how silly and brainless you are. why don't they just go to Cambodia and visit him at the same time see their homeland. just doesn't make sense.

They should be deported, yes. But not retroactively. If he committed that crime 10 years prior, before the law was changed, served out his sentence, and has been clean ever since then, it's not really fair.

[@heythave]

All walks of life of the Cambodian population come to the USA as refugees, some of them are farmers or uneducated people and as a result never passed on the importance of education to their children. They will warn them, but no real effort or resources were put to back it up. Everything ends up with fate anyway.

[@abw48]

Im British originally and lived in the USA for years and so became a USA Citizen and now I live in Cambodia. These guys should not have got involved in the gang life plus if they were Citizens they would do jail time but they cannot be deported if they were US Citizens holding a USA Passport.

[@triggahappyyt5420]

Andrew Blackadder that other guy did 16 years from the age of 16, comes out and now is being given another sentence. If he was Vietnamese his case would be diffrent. im not for or against it but all ppl should be treated equally.

[@abw48]

Trigger Happy No doubt about that and the fact that the USA deported them all to a country they hardly even knew is scandalous and a disgrace.

[@206guy5]

Many Cambodians had to join gangs to protect themselves from other groups. Just like the video said, Cambodian refugees were placed in the worst areas in California and were picked on. They had to make gangs to protect their community.

As a citizen of this country the US and a taxpayer I think I have the right like other people to insist the deportation for safety reasons I don't think that the criminals should have the rights to stay here. They should be immediately deported to the country of orgin. Thank you have a nice day in Cambodia.

before I even start to watch this. my answer is Um Yes. wtf kind of question is that. they should be jailed finger printed and pay for there ticket back...never to come in again. a message needs to be sent and enforced. stupid question journey man.

Don't matter if he walking free there or not cause there's killer all over the place there. You go there thinking you tough cause you're in a gang back in the U.S, you're wrong. Guys there will chop you up alive with machetes and axes. So he's not any safer walking free.

They don't need to lock him up. The streets will just consume him.

[@MrRednuht13]

What about the lives of the people he was stealing cars from

[@zenodotusofathens2122]

He should pay restitution if he committed a crime. Maybe he should go to prison if he committed a crime. Nobody is saying he should not be punished. What if the Lord was that he should be crucified for stealing a car. Would you stand there on the sidelines cheering when he is being crucified. What do you have 1 oz of humanity in your black soul

[@unknownally]

The thing is is that these people had no idea they could get deported. A warning would’ve been nice. Coming 10 years later after you’ve cleaned your act up? I say that’s wrong. A lot of these crimes were done as teenagers too
