New Cough.
He was deported for drug possession. I can't give him a free pass on that either. If they thought he was a US citizen then, they would've locked him up.

It does point out one thing that truly bothers me though- for all the talk by the neo-cons about protecting our border, faint (if any) consideration is given to who is going to decide who is a US citizen and what that criteria will be.

New Homeland Security decides who gets to be a citizen
2 methods, born on US soil (embassy, army base)
naturalization. Under the new rules since 911 commiting a felony can have your naturalization revoked and deported if you were the prime naturalizee. Probably would not apply to a naturalized minor.
Here are the requirements, also note the 14th ammendment. [link|http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/services/natz/index.htm|http://www.uscis.gov...es/natz/index.htm]
