I can't discuss or debate it here on the board. It's against the rules.

Not even close. Way off the mark. Try guessing again.

Your arrogance is what got you.

That's fine. Do what you think you need to do.
You've been reported also.

What are some of the restaurants to avoid?

Former Cedar Rapids restaurant owner convicted of citizenship fraud

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa - A former Cedar Rapids and Waterloo restaurant owner pleaded guilty Friday in federal court here to obtaining his U.S. citizenship through fraud. This plea was announced by U.S. Attorney Matt M. Dummermuth, Northern District of Iowa; the case was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Jose de Jesus Ibarra-Castaneda, 37, from Marion, Iowa, former owner of the Hacienda Las Glorias and Casa Las Glorias restaurants, was convicted of lying on his application to obtain his U.S. citizenship in 2002.

At the plea hearing, Ibarra-Castaneda admitted he knowingly failed to truthfully answer all of the questions on his naturalization application. In a plea agreement, Ibarra-Castaneda admitted that between 1996 and 2002, he knowingly committed the following crimes: (1) hiring illegal aliens; (2) harboring and conspiring to harbor illegal aliens; (3) using counterfeit alien registration cards; (4) knowingly accepting counterfeit resident alien cards to allow persons to work who were not legally in the United States; and (5) conspiring to use counterfeit alien registration cards and accepting counterfeit resident alien cards to allow persons to work who were not legally in the United States.

Ibarra-Castaneda failed to report his prior criminal activity when he applied to become a U.S. citizen. He is currently serving a prison sentence for his 2004 convictions for filing a false income tax return and knowingly hiring illegal aliens at his restaurants. "Anyone who lies on a federal application to obtain an immigration benefit commits a federal offense and is subject to criminal arrest and prosecution," said Michael Vail, resident agent in charge of the ICE Office of Investigations in Cedar Rapids. "ICE aggressively investigates benefit fraud to shut down vulnerabilities that pose a threat to national security. This enforcement also helps maintain the integrity of the immigration process. We will continue to pursue those individuals who obtain legitimate benefits through fraudulent means."

Ibarra-Castaneda faces a maximum penalty of up to an additional 10 years' in prison, a fine of up to $250,000, a 3-year term on supervised release, revocation of his certificate of naturalization, and deportation to Mexico.

Sentencing before U.S. District Court Chief Judge Linda R. Reade will be set after a presentence report is prepared. Ibarra-Castaneda remains in custody of the U.S. Marshals Service pending sentencing. Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Reinert, Northern District of Iowa, prosecuted this case.

Go ahead and make your justifications.

I read a lot of the other threads. It was a cut and paste thing.

Wow! I had no idea there was so much slamming, cussing, slandering, etc. Women using the f word.
Those monitors are going to be pretty busy.

Already done.

Thank you for the info. I don't enjoy being slammed either

Think what you wish.

Spread the word to all posters who are abusive.
I can joke along with ya'
BTW, where do yo report abuse? I can't find it

Where do you go to report this stuff. I want in.

Now spur, when you get a brain, and a **** dont get them mixed up and suck the wrong end!
Would this be considered abusive?

dont they inbreed in tennessee????
And what is this?

So, every time I feel attacked, I report the attacker?
On this thread, there has been a lot of personal attacking on most sides.
Is one more wrong than the other?

When I am assaulted with being told what I say is stupid or has no validity or my country is slammed by outsiders, I revert to a mode I was trained in. You find your enemies weakness and use it against them.
Now, you can say, Jess and the other outsiders didn't do anything of the sort. But if you read back, you'll see the bashing and demeaning things that were said. I was just coming back with what I knew would offend.
Now, if the bashing and slamming can stop, I can be reasonable also.
I come to this because I read another thread where Jess was being humble and caring. Telling the two boys to stop the pissing contest and figure, she ain't half bad a person.

Like I've always heard and believe. We're only one paycheck away from homelessness. I am sure fortunate to have always been a survivor. Been pretty much below poverty most of my life and know how to make do with what I have.
I'm also fortunate that my whole world won't come crashing down on me if I lost my place here.
It's hard for me to comprehend how, just losing possessions can destroy a person. Unless those things are what they base their self worth on.
As far as jobs, if a person really wanted one, they are out there. It might mean living a lot more humble lifestyle and doing a thing that before, might have been seen as beneath their standards. They might even have to move to a different part of the country where the jobs are.
For example, Oklahoma. They are looking to fill many positions.

I need to copy and paste.
My wife is a legal resident from Mexico. She's been here over 23 years. Doesn't speak a lick of English. I adore my Mexican In-Laws and we get along well. She and I get along. We are separated. Can ya' believe it? She says I'm hard to live with, LOL!! We have lunch together every day, I go help around her house. We even have great sex. Then I go back to my house.
I have asked a couple other groups, Pro American, to join us here on this site and a couple others. Hopefully, they can add some fresh ideas and are more world event knowledgeable than I. Apparently, even though we live here and live the invasion, to them ferigners, we are just stupid hicks that don't know **** from shineola.
