Hi I thought this was interesting. Especially the part about the person who was not considered a USC because she did not take the oath.

ICE DEPORTS 80 NIGERIAN IMMIGRATION VIOLATORS

Flight includes 63 criminals, including man from oath of allegiance case

NIAGARA FALLS, New York-- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced today that 80 citizens of Nigeria were deported Friday, including 63 felons with convictions that ranged from rape, robbery and aggravated assault to drug dealing, burglary, forged documents, fraud, and credit card theft.

Also included on the deportation flight was criminal alien Celestine Ifeanacho Okafor, a native and citizen of Nigeria who contended he could not be deported because he was a United States citizen despite failing to participate in the required public oath of allegiance ceremony.

Ultimately, the Attorney General of the United States reaffirmed that taking the oath of allegiance to the United States at a public ceremony or before a court is required except in certain circumstances such as when an applicant is permanently incapacitated or disabled, clearing the way for Okafor's deportation.

The aliens were deported from the United States aboard a government flight, and they were escorted by detention and removal officers and medical personnel.

There's much too little of that going on. I am all in favor of deporting criminal aliens. No matter where they're from.

Absolutely correct procedure. if immigrants cannot respect the laws of the land they are in, then get them out, as ET says too much of this going on.

I just wish that our government would get their act together and do the same, the system is a complete shambles over here, it is a fact that the prison population is increasing at a horrendous rate and that the vast majority are either immigrants or failed asylum seekers. Our government promised that they would deport a certain amount of illegals every month - I think it must have been April Fool's day when they gave the figures they have never achieved it and never will !!
