Illegal Immigrants Who Are Blond

If you are in this country illegally, chances are, you will not be deported if you are blond and have blue eyes. Lauren Gray faced deportation after her twenty-first birthday. She graduated from Stephens College, in Missouri, and on August 8, aged out of the program that allows her to stay in this country via her parents' working visas. Instead of getting a visa of her own, or returning to England, where she was born, Ms. Gray got her congresswoman to beg and plead for the laws to be broken in this country, just this one time, and now she gets to stay, pursue a dance career, and never face deportation again. Meanwhile, in Arizona, Governer Jan Brewer actually took the step of defying the laws concerning immigrants who are here on visas and stripped them of the right to enjoy any public benefits in Arizona or even to obtain a state issued ID. But then, most of the immigrants in Arizona do not have blond hair and blue eyes.
