This world is FUCKED up. As if this weren't bad enough....Family deported, 13-year-old left behind "The family was being deported after living here in the United States the past 15 years... The 13-year-old was the only family member not deported. They immediately applied for political asylum but were denied... Rosaleena is a U.S. citizen because she was born here after her family fled Armenia... The U.S. government will not pay for her plane ticket because she, unlike her parents and siblings is authorized to be here..."Sad enough story, but not that unusual, unfortunately. The really blood boiling detail that compelled me to write this entry? CNN, while reporting this story, ended the segment with "The local community is trying to raise money to buy a plane ticket to send [Rosaleena] home." Home? You fucking douche bags! Home, to that girl, is the country where she lived her entire life. Home for that family is the home the country where almost all their other children's lives were lived. HOME is fucking HERE. To call Armenia, the country that her parents fled for fear of their family's lives, a place she's never likely been, her home is completely absurd. She's sad because her family is leaving her alone! She's not sad because she can't go "home." The ever living fuck. I don't know why I even follow the news some times when I know it's going to be so ignorantly reported.
