Will Dzhokhar Tsarnaev a Naturalized US citizen

[destiny64 222]

It's people asking about whether this is something that would revoke it. A lot of people wonder what it takes to have your citizenship stripped. It's a valid question.

What I'm saying is who cares if they strip him of his citizenship? I think its non-important in the scheme of the severity of killing and maiming hundreds of people. That would be the very least of a concern about this whole horrific event.

Nobody is against that the act is inhuman and that its extremely horrific. Now everybody here has the chance to ask questions and get answers. I asked a question and I got some answers. Now you having an attitude because I asked a question is stupid. Nobody really cares about his citizenship but people want to learn what does it really take what kind of extreme situations. for your info: if you think that you will keep with this attitude I would advice to get a check up, or just chill out and watch. There is no reason to get mad.

Massachusetts does not have the death penalty, and as a naturlized US citizen unless there is an "accident" it is highly unlikely he will be killed whilst in custody.

I don't need a check up, all I'm saying is you used this extreme situation to ask a question related to how to lose one's citizenship. I didn't call you stupid, it just struck a nerve that citizenship loss would be something to wonder about here. I'm happy that we will be able to prosecute him to the fullest being that he is a citizen ,and we don't have to battle with another country over how to handle him.

anyone feel his citizenship status actually matter, this one instance ?

I did wonder about it here because many people obviously visit this website and ask that kind of question or about tickets or about selective service and many other kinds. I'm happy he will be prosecuted here too and I hope he gets life for the innocent people he killed. However you are from Morocco and I'm Tunisian what are you fighting or arguing with me for. Remember we are neighbors.

Seems your the only one who understands me here.

This is an amazing website. As I stated you can ask any question you like , it was the fact that you asked it in relation to Dzhokhar. That is what struck me. I didn't have any idea which country you are from in the post and has nothing to do with it. My husband is from Morocco and I am from the U.S and I'm very proud of where he is from. Even if I was from Morocco , your being from Tunisia doesn't mean we would share the same ideas. In this world we are all neighbors, sharing borders as history proves aren't the symbol of peace. I leave this topic now.

However, the federal government does have the death penalty. And he may be chargeable for some federal offenses.

Ah I see who I was talking to now. Nobody said you should have the same ideas as mine, but you should learn how to accept the others opinion. To you maybe being a neighbor doesn't mean peace, to me it's for what my religion taught to respect my neighbor. I used his Dzhokhar as an example not because I'm against him or his US citizenship. Please I'm not trying to argue with you on this matter because that was not my intention from the beginning. So please stop arguing about, if it did strike you I'm sorry for striking you with my outspoken ideas.

Just saying, we tend to be critical of the USCIS for being too careful, but in this case, certainly not careful enough. These two boys certainly ruined a lot of lives, and especially to people they had no issue with. Whatever their problem was.

Did some search in their immigration history, only family mentioned so far was an uncle, how did they come here in the first place? Then most of us are concerned whether we have enough money to bring our loved ones here. Nothing on this subject either, but history is showing those with lots of money that can come here with ease are causing most of the problems. USCIS should go back to what is written on our Statue of Liberty.

Certainly enough on the news now about background checks for buying guns, sounds like our leaders should add doing background checks on purchasing pressure cookers and common hardware items as well. The latter is capable of doing far more damage than guns.

From what I understand, they came on political asylum. Political asylum cases can result in a GC, if the conditions for asylum are stil prevalent in their contries. Once a LPR, they can follow the same path for citizenship as anyone else (5 years wait, etc)

Citizenship does matter, and before talk of death penalty happens, he first must be tried and found guilty of a federal crime (as oppose to a state one). As someone else said earlier, one is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Not saying he is innocent, but as lawyers always say, it is one thing what you know and an entirely different one what you can prove.

He will have to be proven guilty beyond any doubt; which is not as simple. To begin with, he might have to be tried in a different jurisdiction, because of the possible prejudice he would have. The whole judicial side of this case could take several years.

How does citizenship matters? If he is stripped of his US citizenship prior to being judged, found guilty and sentenced; his attorney could argue that he is an enemy combatant for example, and if that view prevails, then Geneva Convention rules apply. BTW, IANAL but have a lot of first hand experience in laws and judicial procedures.

As I said, this could be a milestone case in US judicial system.

I likes neighbors with guns, preventing land grabs and insurrections.

Just sayin...
