VICE News I think the one person that needs to get deported ASAP is the founder of VICE news. A Canadian Communist who constantly is putting out misleading anti-American propagandist news pieces to indoctrinate their mostly young American audiences. Indoctrinating them into hating their own country. All the while Shane makes millions of dollars from his hate mongering. This hypocrite owes all his fame and fortune to the U.S.A. Particularly American Capitalism.
Vice, was violence foreign to his victims, or are you asserting that they welcomed the domestic violence? They should have kept calm, with no reason to be alarmed, because it's just part and parcel of being anywhere near him? They should have been "used" to it, so it's no longer foreign? Were his weapons charges for guns that he was going to use on foreigners, or just for use against close friends and adopted family? Would a foreign object made of lead be assimilated well by human flesh and bone? Do you know of anyone willing to demonstrate the concept of "foreign" using any of the examples above? Were his assaults foreign to his victims, or just the way he's used to greeting people? Vice, your hypocrisy is completely foreign to the first thought for his victims. "Undocumented" is the LEAST of HIS problems. HIS....as in created by, propagated and executed by, continued and repeated by HIM, least of all which is doing ALL this shit, and STILL expect his background would be ignored. We should worry for South Korea, and this guy's future "foreign" victims.
I looked this guy up and his story is heartbreaking. He was abandoned and beaten as a child. Arrested as a teen for breaking into his abusive family’s home for trying to retrieve some belongings. As an adult he turns his life around and opens a business. Tries to apply for a green card after finding out his papers are forged. Gets deported because requesting a green card triggered a background check. He was trying to do the right thing and they punished him for it.
Grass maybe I missed it but I didn’t catch them talking about his burglary charge stemming from trying to take back his own belongings. I read that part after looking him up online. www.law.ox.ac.uk/research-subject-groups/centre-criminology/centreborder-criminologies/blog/2019/02/adopted-and
Yea I feel like adoptees should have a right to get a green card if there’s something wrong with their legal forms. However, an adult illegal getting deported for doing this is right.
Sad that the abusers (Thomas Francis Crapser and his wife, Dolly-jean crapser) only served 90 days each after pleading guilty to 12 counts of horrific abuse to 8 of their adopted children, but adam got 25 months for non-violent burglary? This child literally had his life turned upside down and had to rely and strangers to protect him when all they did was cause a lifetime of scars...I feel bad for all the adopted children that have to face the horrors of abusive adults. I hope each and every one of them are able to find peace and I hope those "parents" get what's coming to them because the justice system has really failed to protect these innocent kids from unsuitable homes.
And the fact that virtually no media outlet except for Vice News is reporting on this...Meanwhile celebrities who has had everything go their way their entire life are able to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars on gofundme just because they lost their pet, and they make more money a day just showing photos on the internet than Adam has made his entire life. Completely despicable. The entire US government needs to be rebuilt from the ground up, following a technocratic and egalitarian framework. Death to the socialite class.

@@amossutandi he shouldn't be punished for the mistakes of his abusive "parents". If he's lived most of his life here, then he's more culturally American than Korean
This is heartbreaking. He should sue for being adopted into a family that dumped him like an unwanted pet. He should sue for being placed in an abusive home. He should never have gone to prison for retrieving his own possessions. It's not right what has happened to him and so many others.
@genespell4340 I'm sorry to know that. I didn't know anything about his full story. I hope the system has changed and adoptive parents are now better vetted.
@@kurikuraconkuritas jesus christ maybe ur the one who can't fucking hear, maybe watch the video before commenting. The judges were not allowed to intervene until he get's deported, that's how that law works 😲
“6 years later his adoptive parents decided they didn’t want him anymore”... How the hell is that legal? Adoption shouldn’t be something that can be revoked outside of maybe extreme circumstances and if you’re not capable of supporting a child you shouldn’t be able to adopt.
The american dream baby, they treat children like commodities, there's not that much protection because adoption is a market, and you better not put some regulations on the holy free market. In many europeans countries, none of that would've happened. USA is a rich country trying so hard to a third-world one.
It's better revoking an adopted child than forcing people who are able to abandone a kid to care about him or her without any oversight. There would be only constant abuse and total mistreatment.
I agree, but as an adoptee, no child should live with caregivers that dont want them. That's a recipe for neglect and abuse. So sad that's what ended up happening to him
Deporting this man, makes no sense, it serves no purpose to him, his kids, wife and ultimately to Korea, he's a foreigner in his own country. He was adopted by a US family and then dropped like a new born poppy to the shelter, that's not right, on top of that he was abused, what kinda country is this that deports someone for missing a government form and having gone through so much. Give the guy a break!
Rene Robyn Just because you have a wet dream about moving to South Korea, it doesn't mean it applies to everyone else. You talk about his situation, as though he is refusing a free trip to Disneyland.
Rene Robyn he fucking offed himself because he was just placed in korea with no money or the language skills to hold a job. His wife and kid is in the US. He was trying for 3 years to get back. He was brought here, abused thrown out.
Rene Robyn Yeah he broke the law originally to recover the possessions stolen from him by the rapist abusers that adopted him, after getting locked up his life spiraled out of control. The system failed him, he never had a damn chance and if you think he did perhaps you should be deported to another country you have never been to and have no business being shipped off to.
Good he was lucky to stay for 37 years I dont understand if he broke the law for this long we should let it go? No he should be thankful for staying this long
Hey Robert... Aside from the fact you did mention... "On top of the fact the he's undocumented... No fault of his own, he committed a lot of crimes. " I could go on to basically quote your entire post, but that would be redundant. DUDE... The guy was "adopted" and literally "taken" from South Korea to the good ole US of A at the age of like two against his will by an "American" family.... Now think about this... I mean this sincerely and put YOURSELF in his shoes while I drop this angle to examine this guys situation for a minute..... At two when he was adopted by this American family and then they put him in foster care, do you really think it's his fault as a minor he didn't fill out the "proper" immigration documents while he was a kid? Why is the onus on him? Even as an adult? Common sense would reason that the family that adopted him, regardless they put him in foster care, have to take the hit for not filling out his "immigration status" in America after they literally "adopted" the small child and took him here to the states. It's not like he crossed the southern border illegally through Mexico. He literally was taken against his will and knowledge, hence he was like 2 or 3 yrs old and it's his fault the US government would make a 2-3 year old exempt from these immigration laws considering he "crossed the border" legally since he was "legally" adopted by US citizens and he was too young to make decisions for himself CLEARLY. The onus should be on the "original" US family that adopted him and removed him from his native country. That's crazy talk if you think his situation is his fault. Why don't you go move to Peru or India since you say... "I'm sure it's not so bad in South Korea. He probably loves it now." The dude is American and not Korean. He doesn't even speak Korean. Read what you said and my reply and really put yourself in his shoes. I'm not mad at you, but think your logic is twisted regardless of the written law considering every detail about this unique case is and it's not a normal case. You seriously sound spineless. The guy is American. The family that adopted him should be the ones in trouble and not this poor guy (i.e. he was abused by them as a small kid and it's his fault per written law). You got ZERO empathy and soul man.
In 2019 Adam filed a lawsuit against the South Korean government and the adoption agency for sending hundreds of children to the US and never accounting for their citizenship status, or their well-being calling it gross negligence. I hope Adam gets his justice.
If you google his name and click the "Batara Immigration Law" page, you'll see that he has met his birth mother, who gave him up because she was single, poor, and disabled. The two meet up every few months, but have difficulty communicating, as he speaks very little Korean (presumably only what he has learned since being deported) and she speaks no English
@Keith1974 The system failed him in every way possible, gave him years of trauma, and then you wonder why he didn't know how to handle that trauma and got in trouble with the law? And ontop of that, the US has been deporting people over technicalities for years regardless of whether they break the law or not, some of them even after they served in the military.
Those possessions are the last thing an adoptee child has as “a sense of belonging” which psychologically speaking is a on maslow’s hierarchy of basic human needs.
You bring in a child against his will , you torture him for majority of his life and when he had something to lose you deport him and Seperate him from his family. America is truly an ambassador of human rights
They were clueless farmers, just wanted to adopt children and use them as farmhands. When the child(ren) become rebellious, they didn't want the child(ren) anymore. I hope all potential adopters learn from the mistake this man's FIRST adoptive parents made. I hope this man gets to be with his family soon.
"Your shitty adoptive parents didn't file some paperwork you couldn't have possibly had any control of because you were so young?!? Too bad. So sad. Get fucked. Don't let the Statute of Liberty kick your ass on the way out." 😪
I'm a US Soldier, and I dont fight for this kind of treatment. Once you take a child out of his natural inviroment and force it to adapt to a new inviroment, you should take ownership of that child. It can never go back because it won't be accepted nor will it survive. My heart bleeds for this young man, I am so sorry for what you are going through. America does not represent this.....
The government when in family court applies the law you describe. But when it isnt convenient for the country. They do the opposite. But it gives losers a job in government destroying families .
The government creates criminals to keep themselves busy . Overpaying agents even though the debt is high .who cares 21 trillion dollars debt .the homeland security is more of a public charge than a welfare recipient. Willing to prove this in a jury trial. The government spys on all of us . I dont really care . Unconstitutional laws need to battle tested in court with a great lawyer
@Martha Arteaga You know when your a victim of abuse your like angry and want to fight for justice . I'm tired of people who say we are a nation of laws . Many of these laws are unconstitutional and the founding fathers are willing to be resurrected to start the revolution that they said should happen in 250 years . Government gone wild . Because I don't see people who understand how wrong things are in the country. Other countries aren't much better .
I'm just now seeing this. Adam was my roommate in Salem and best friend for years. He is even my motivation to become a licensed barber. It's so sad that this happened to him. Being separated from his wife, kids, friends and everything he knows. He's been through so much, even at the hands of his adopted family. Brought to a place that he didn't know and didn't speak the language. The Crapsers are truly evil people. I knew this entire story, yet seeing this (Especially when he was in ICE detention center about to cry himself) seriously made me cry. Adam, I love you, bro! I pray for you regularly.
Ana Sanchez, what you propose for the congress to remake the law? The issue is he rake a few felonies in the past. It is unfortunate but if you want to change the law for all so he can be legal with felonies, can't you see what total catastrophic damage it may introduce to the states?
best friends for years but answer on social media LOL. I call my best friends even from the past and help them not just sit there and pray. I sure hop you reach out in REAL LIFE and help, prayer dose NOTHING.
2 years for picking up his stuff. Man that’s insane. They don’t even give rapists or even a guy who was drunk driving and crashed head on to a police vehicle 2 years prison time
I agree! My ex-boyfriend beat me up, was caught with heroin and meth, and got out on bail. While out on bail, he was caught at a known drug house. He again had meth and heroin, baggies and a scale, which is possession with intent to distribute. He got less than three years and got released today. He should have received over 25 years according to the law, but the prosecutor gave him this unbelievable plea deal. Smh
@@YvetteArby Nobody should be locked up for 25 years on drug charges. However, if he assaulted you unprovoked, then he should have been dealt with for that.
This is so wrong… he is an American just as much as any person who’s lived their entire life in the USA… I can’t imagine being a toddler brought to a new country for a new family.. spending your entire life in the USA as a productive citizen and then the government tossing you out. It’s absolutely shameful and WRONG.
it's sickening...people abuse and abuse with no consequences, he goes in, gets his stuff and has to deal with consequences that , again...are sickening 😤😢
I have a theory that people not protected by the US (or UK) laws, are not considered people until it doesn't serve obvious political, social, economical purpose. Thus, a little thin-eyed kid is seen as something a little more than a pet/toy or smth.
Gov. Agents are Corrupt.. 6 yrs not matter.. He was w/a family who Loved him.. Gov. sent him to Brutal Butterfly Collectors, who beat him w/a 2 by 4 & burned him w/ cigarettes. US, Gov. Failed him.. & Some US Veterans are treated the same way. You have to Love Self, Protect Life, Breathe Happy.. Peace..!!!
Guess you owe him all his taxes and such back then. He’s been paying a system he shouldn’t have so fair is fair. Give him back every penny he ever gave to the USA.
In addition to my sincere prayers, what are some other movements that need to happen to get this situation and other issues similar resolved What do we do? How can I help?🤔
What I don't understand is why someone has to go through this just because "that's the way it is". Once he's able to prove that he is now a working man, capable and stable; who's lived his entire life in the US and has a family who depends on him, wouldn't it be reasonable to let him stay? This shit is even documented now, as we've just watched. All that is missing is a fucking piece of paper saying he's american. Fucked up shit indeed.
All immigration rules cannot be used against this man for that he is not an immigrant. He didn't migrate to the US, he was brought to the US. It's not like Adam forged his visa or crossed the border illegally. He was brought to the states, probably against his will, and then got thrown from one foster family to another and dumped. Almost 40 years later, the time where he finally had a loving family and a stable home, America kicked him out and again against his will. It's almost like the adopters brought him to ruin his life, and when he got close to ''the American Dream'' the US decided to ruin Adam's life more.
This. Immigration laws shouldn't be enforceable to him. Though having a Korean passport (or any other country for that matter) probably nullified that :/
Great music, I love jazz, great landscapes and national parks, great cultural diversity, great museums,... This is what I personally like about the US.
that crappy logic doesnt even make sense. so illegals can just bring their kids into America & the kids are all instantly citizens, right? what freakin planet are you from?
I can't believe he got 2 years of prison for taking back what belonged to him. That's ridiculous . 2 years for a Korean bible and q pair of shoes, if he was a thief he would've took more than that. That family abused him both physically and mentally, he did nothing wrong. He was just claiming a part of himself. Compared to what they did to him, he didn't deserve jail time. This system is so fucked I swear. I can't even. Love you Adam, hope it'll get better for you.
Nothing says I'm tougher then asking someone in the youtube comment section to "fight me in real life"... It screams pathetic mess.. sorry bruh.. you are the weakest link
This should not have happened. I think foreign adoptions deserve the same oversight as domestic ones. He should NOT be deported because he didn't lie, he didn't NOT file the paperwork. He was brought here by an American, he was adopted by an American, he was systematically abused and abandoned by an American. He doesn't deserve this
@jamal the 3rd no I didn't. That doesn't change the fact that as a child, through no choice of his making, he was brought to this country and raised as an American, fully assimilated to his parent's culture and country. The fact that THEY didn't sign the right papers when he was a child isn't his fault and I just think his citizenship should have been automatic when he was adopted. Sending him to a country he doesn't know, doesn't understand, has no connection to, basically destroying his life is cruel and unusual punishment. If he had been an intentional illegal immigrant, it would have been justified but he didn't even know.
@jamal the 3rd He was punished for those crimes. How many times do you want to punish people? And the fact that he was abused by his so called parents when he should have been protected is not his fault, but the fault of the authorities. And if America allowed these adoptions from South Korea, then the Authorities should have done the paper work as soon as he arrived and granted him his citizen ship. And why could he not have stayed with the Foster Mother, the second person? And the fact that children growing up in an abusive household will generally act the same as adults. And everyone deserves a second chance, or do you think, once a felon they should be treated like crap for the rest of their lives?
@jamal the 3rd he had no reason to check it. Why would he since he was raised here and his parents never made him aware that they hadn't signed the papers? I don't think most people who are adopted from another country would even think to check their immigration status, they would probably think that if they're adopted by a US citizen, it makes them US citizens just like their biological children would be. His citizenship was never in question until he got arrested. I just think deporting him to a country he knows nothing about is excessive
America took him away from his own, America made him what he is. America rejected him. I feel for him because I can relate in many ways. May God be with him!
@RedLight GreenArrow Although I'm surprised he served two years for what I assume was a 1st-offense breaking/entering charge (you can't steal your own stuff), the video stated he had assault, weapons, and domestic violence charges when he was older.
Unfortunately if you break into a property without the owners permission. You will get arrested, he should have just called the cops to accompany him and he would have gotten his stuff back with no trouble... sad story
@MusicMadMaurice There's a reason...it's called "for profit prison", they donated bigly to the Republicans after Obama put them out of business...now IT"S BAAACK, basically they donate money to politicians to keep them in business, politicians enact laws and policies that land a lot of people in jail (esp ppl of color) think --current asylum seekers, they then end up in jail, tax payers pay the bill, the prison owners make lots of money and they pay out to the politicians again.... Is this #MAGA?
Look at YeshuaDisciples comment. At the bottom of the replys on his comment. YD writes again about 2021 saying that Adam was still in S.Korea, was doing better, & was looking at making it back to the US. I asked for a further update, we'll see.
Banana banana...yeah crazy..and many people still want to give the government more power and have it in every facet of their life. The government fails at many things...smaller government and better, enforced laws.
He should sue the United States. He was taken from his country by people who were out to benefit them selfs. Then they dumped him. He ended up in a horrible situation. Being abused, this would be looked at today as human trafficking of a child. The government allowed this to happen to him by taking no oversight of what happens to these children once they got here. This is a crime committed by the USA. Not the child, not only should they give him his citizenship they should compensate him for the horrible treatment he has lived through. The government allow him to be taken from his home country. He didn’t come hear by his own accord.
There was an influx of a Korean adoptees after world war II as you see and other countries such as China, Iran, Panama. Either the adoption agency ( which was more than likely overseas), the parents, or USICIS didn't finish filing the correct paperwork. Some of you don't realize that a lot of us were taken from our birth parents. If you ever research a lot of the stories you'll see and you'll find out. We were adopted and we came here we had to learn another language. Under USICIS we were granted US citizenship until the age of 18. Just like Adam I was given up by my adopted parents to the state. Like you said being adopted you really don't feel like you belong or fit in. Upon my 18th birthday I had to go to immigration and get another green card which I didn't understand. Never once was I asked if I wanted to become a US citizen this is not something that they offer to you. I didn't realize it till the last 5 years this was the situation. I applied for federal benefits then I was told that I am not naturalized as US citizen. Congress has been fully aware of these adoptees they don't have an exact number but they know we exist. Some of the delegates were very understanding from what I was told and some of them are not I've met a few other adoptees I learned their stories and I learned Adams too. So many of us were walking around here thinking that where US citizens, thinking that we had rights when we actually didn't. So voting is considered a crime against the United States if you're not a US citizen. Applying for benefits and receiving them is another crime against the United States. These are just the name some of the reasons for deportation. I got real blessed I just got my permanent residency card about 4 months ago. This has been a fight with Congress for a very long time. Congress did make a change in the early 2000s but if you were under the age of 18 for adoptees you were automatically granted citizenship. The United States when they take children and they adopt them to other countries they make sure those countries give them their citizenship. We currently have a migration crisis. These people coming have been through hell unable to feed their families and they're just trying to survive. They are given certain rights that they can still get their citizenship even if they commit certain crimes or they were deported and they can come back to the US. Congress is currently working on a law to give these people naturalized citizenship and I'm happy for them because they cannot go back to where they're from. The situation still stands for adoptees we're still being deported we're still not giving our citizenship and we are not able to come back once we're deported. One thing I can say is Korea is giving those adoptees who've been deported back to Korea their Korean citizenship. This is a really hard transition for those of us that came over and are heading back we no longer speak this language. South Korean government is trying to help transition with the large influx of adoptees being sent back. I hope they make the change and grandfather us in and give us our naturalization for citizenship.
Of course and thus it proves Trumptards are insane. The Trumptards and Trump have been complaining about open-border policy of the evil left like lunatics. Under Obama administration, even Latino illegals were greatly reduced. But those facts are only facts when they are afraid of people blaming their Trump daddy, like what you are doing now. I call that INSANE.
He's had all these years... since he was 18 to fix the problem. Why willingly break a federal law? That's what he did. At any moment he could have fixed it, but, he waited far, far to long. You know, as an adult you are supposed to be self-Responsible.... it's a choice and he just ignored his responsibility. No one's fault but his own. Each Human born has a difficult life... are you going to wallow in victimhood or take responsibility for your life. Don't wait until it is to late.
Marcy Carson so it’s his fault his adopted parents decided to be negligent and not finish off the paper for the infant they chose to bring to America. He did not decide to be here
He could have changed his situation long before he was told to leave. He knew there was a problem long before he turned 18. Each of us is responsible for our own lives. No, he did not choose to be here. Though, if he'd remained in Korea it was very possible that he wouldn't be alive at all. He should count his blessings. Yes, his adopted parents had the responsibility to take care of the paperwork. Because this wasn't done, it sounds like something screwy was going on, this sort of thing doesn't happen without reason. He didn't do it until he was pushing middle age. That's to bad, he broke the law and ignored it until it was far to late. It's not your fault, it is not mine, the responsibility for his life and the choices he made.....are entirely his. Sounds like you feel strongly about this subject. You should contact him and see what you can do to help his cause. Maybe you can find out why he was adopted by a USA family without the proper paperwork from Korea or the USA. .
He was a victim of his adoptive families neglect. If there was a true justice system, the initial adoptive paperwork would have been filed and he would have become a US citizen. Insult was added to injustice when he was convicted of a crime for trying to get his only belongings from an abusive family. For those that said he knew since he was 18, well his adoptive family knew before that and didn't fix it. In addition, what 18 yo knows how to navigate the legal maze around immigration law. I agree with Clay Girl.
He went to prison and did his time but then he gets punished for finding out he wasn't a citizen and wanted to make it right by becoming one? Our system is broken.

I would do anything to be one of those children who where brought to America. Land of opportunities. You are just a misinformed, spoiled brat who doesn't know what they're talking about.
When I saw that couple adopt 8 kids… I thought right away they’re doing this for money or something else. It’s heartbreaking because I know there’s many many good American families who would have loved him and raised him well. What a bad hand he was dealt… it’s going to be hard for him to integrate into Korean society but I hope he can do it for his family.
I was 9 years of age, adopted from Holts in Korea to family with 5 of own kids. I was very fortunate to be adopted to a wonderful family, especially my dad who treated me as if I was no different than his own blood children. When I see these stories, it really breaks my heart with sadness for the children and anger towards the abusive adoptive parents.
I was adopted through Holt as well, but I was 5 months old. Only child, grew up in norcal. I'd go to Korean adoptee conferences with my parents every year. Good times
Perhaps koreans-americans would be kind enough to personally write to pres.biden with as many signatures ad you can get to rally for the safe return of your co korean-american colleague.
I was adopted too, from “love the children.” Stories like this hit so hard bc I’m truly no different from Adam. I was just luckier than him, and that makes me really emotional bc luck is not something that I feel good about in this case. Anyone could fall on the other side of that and you have no choice in it. I’m praying for him and hoping that he is OK right now, right this minute. I’m going to see if he has a site or something. 🙁
A lot of adoptive parents in the US are abusive. Russia even imposed an adoption ban on the US after several Russian adoptees were killed by their US parents.
I feel you man. I'm a Korean adoptee living in Seoul. I understand how hard life is. I struggle everyday to fit in here in Korea and back in Australia. Being adopted sometimes puts you in a place where you have no idea where you truly belong, I too never spoke the language when I came back and I still struggle now. Your face is Korean but you don't speak the language but back home your face isn't the same back your language is. Respect.
@@speedy1through943 Definitely not true. Nothing about him dying comes up when you google his name. He did sue the Korean government a year or two ago for failing to protect him as an adoptee but I didn't see any updates on that.
@@livb.6987 well that’s good for him still it feels like an injustice considering the hardship he had went through from not only ICE but from the legal system for 9 years plus the abuse he suffered from his adopted family
He was brought to the USA for adoption in 1979 I think? Only 9 years before South Korea held Olympics in 1988. Korean War ceased major hostilities in 1953.
Damn... It's cases like these that make me question American immigration. A guy, that had no saying in the matter, was put up for adoption, send to the states, abused, adopted, abused, managed to get on his feet, and just like that it was gone... Empathy is serious lacking in the states. We can't even treat each other as ppl. Just a faceless case number till it's time to clock out. My best wishes to the guy. I hope he finally gets to enjoy the one thing he worked so hard for and never had. Having is family
only half bad 333 ***This wouldn't have happened if not for his felony convictions. This isn't an issue of empathy, it's an issue of law. The man in question did this to himself when he decided to commit a felony, and that's the only fact that matters.
TROLL The law used to deport this man was brought before Congress in 2009, when Obama was president (and thr house/senate was controlled by the democrats). This isn't a Trump issue. While we are on the subject, what president had the most deportations durring his term? OBAMA. Educate yourself and become informed before making comments that have no relevance. Thanks in advance.
They're doing it everywhere... There's a video of them deporting an Aussie who spoke the accent & lived there most of his life over a minor criminal charge!
If a racist bigot were on here they would probably come up with the stupid comment of "Deport them all" I wish they deported those heartless jerks instead of hard working immigrants

Adam's ability to establish a life in South Korea is extremely limited due to his inability to communicate effectively both through language and culture. This is a travesty of justice.
Not our problem. He had every chance to become legal, and he also had a couple of chances for amnesty over the years. We don't reward people simply because their life may be difficult where they come from. I mean going by your logic, we should kick every non english speaking immigrant out, because their ability to establish a life in America is extremely limited due to their inability to communicate effectively both through language and culture. So congratulations, you just played yourself.
No, since like the 70's, the US has had a couple of big amnesty events like once every decade where they've basically allowed illegals to come forward and be fast tracked to citizenship. Example: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_Reform_and_Control_Act_of_1986 -legalized certain seasonal agricultural illegal immigrants, and; -legalized illegal immigrants who entered the United States before January 1, 1982 and had resided there continuously with the penalty of a fine, back taxes due, and admission of guilt; candidates were required to prove that they were not guilty of crimes, that they were in the country before January 1, 1982, and that they possessed minimal knowledge about U.S. history, government, and the English language. So that's why he has no excuse. He had many chances over the years to become a citizen very easily. And no, we shouldn't reward people simply because they've illegally come to our shores, even if it was against their will or from a young age. By doing that, we would invite a lot of problems, like anchor children where parents get to stay because they brought their kids here, more dependents for people to claim welfare on (i.e. the government pays them money every month per kid), and it would also encourage things like illegal adoption and human trafficking. So it's not as simple as letting people stay.
+Wayne TV Don't let that prick warp your views on americans even further. What you see on tv relating to americans mostly shows the bad. There's ample amount of evidence showing most of us aren't pieces of shit.
That's the sickest thing I've heard in a long time. I don't care what kind if crime he may have done, it's America's obligation to let him live in the States. While he is responsible for his past crimes, he isn't responsible for someone else having shipped him over to the U.S. when he was just a kid. It's the ethical obligation of the U.S. to treat him just like every other person having grown up in the U.S. Culturally, he is first and foremost an American -- not Korean.
Tao Yanbao it is not American obligation to let him live in the states it was his obligation to follow the law of the country he lives in. A Visa is about 200 bucks, he has no excuses for not doing what he was legally required to do to remain here. It makes me sick that people like you seem to think that the law should only apply to certain people under certain circumstances, its pathetic really you fucking criminals.
Tao Yanbao once he turned 18 it was his responsibility and his alone, the parents should have but they didnt, that happened decades ago, we cant fix what they did not do nor is it our responsibility to fix it, it was his and his alone solely as I cant walk in for him and day hey he needs a green card only he can do that. So no I'm not retarded you clearly are though, the fact he didnt fix his failed parents mistake is on him alone.
Tao Yanbao fact is he messed up not us, no one but him even knew about the situation because he never tried to fix it. So no man it's his fault and his alone, it shouldnt have happened and we can say that till trumpets sound but it's not gonna change the fact that that's how it went because he let it go that way
Jake Lakin it was the goverments responsibility to follow through with the adopted childs paperwork at least child services could have done it for the first 15 years he was failed by child services. Im sure the hardline approach you have o this is employed in everything else you do.
En P is what happened to him unfortunate absolutely it is, but it wouldn't have happened if he would have taken responsibility for himself and filed his paperwork so he could get his citizenship before he committed all of those crimes that resulted in him being deported. So how is it the fault of anyone other then his shit parents and his own fault?
It is. He didn't have a choice to be taken to America, the people who raised him purposely shaped him into a criminal, and now they're deporting him because they've realized what they created. He doesn't know korean any better than the average american, this kind of racism is really disgusting.
I was taken to the United States at the age of 6 months and was deported at the age of 24 years old to Mexico. it's harder then you think losing your family your way of life to a country that is not your own I've been in Mexico for 6 years now and it's still mind blowing. keep your head up bro
behind thenaame Yeah, "what law did you break" due to how you were raised? Some of these people were brought up in a way that could lead them to becoming criminals in the future. Let's not ask what laws they broke but how they were raised by AMERICAN parents.
I was on probation I fought a case for almost 2 years and then ICE was involved it was very complicated and it was 6 years ago I am currently living in Mexico City.
This is utterly ridiculous. He was a child when he came here. a child. You cannot expect a child to get his own paperwork in order so if there is a loop or a crack in the system-fix it. I don't care if he had a felony or not. The USA is his country. the government in 1955 allowed them to bring these eight kids over whatever paperwork they had at the time that they filed at the time should be sufficient for the rest of their lives and if there is an error the government needs to fix that error. Don't ship these people back for something that had absolutely nothing to do with them.
I feel sorry for him, but somebody takes advantage of the loop or whatever. He is not all innocent. If you are so sympathic with him. You should take him with all this burden to your home, and see if it works. Talk is cheap. If you go to South korea, you will be treated same way or worse. USA or any country can't buy or take all other people's problem, otherwise the country will be a loser(all fucked up) too. USA in California is getting poorer and poorer day by day. Just look around, massive homeless, druggy, zombies, expensive housing and food. Americans and Immigrants and rich companies are moving somewhere else and did not start today, it's happening for the last 20 years. You can't even drive safely, the homeless dart in front of your car when you are using your green light, and they come from the blind spot. It's so scaring so many close calls. Here in Orange County, CA in Santa Ana downtown when drive through, it looks like a war zone flooded with homeless tents, etc. And these homeless don't want to go to shelter because shelter has rules, disciplines: no drugs, no alcohol, working inside the shelter required. They don't want that, they want free ride. I don't feel sorry for them. They want to be in the street to do their drugs. Mental people and druggy people are not supposed to be in the street. There is million dollars for treatment for them. Where the money went. Mental people either were born like that or the drug made them mental. Remember taking drugs you get mental illness, drug is poison to your brain. I never understand what on earth somebody would start drug first time knowing that drug will destroy your life you lose everything including your life.
Sure... he committed crimes that haunted his life. But yeahLet's forget those little details and live our lives like a third world country.Oh wait a minute... Mexico would have deported him 30 something years ago and no whining would be allowed.

That may be legal, but it's just wrong And all the trumptard bigotry you can muster can't change that.
Jake Lakin So you seriously think that *as the child being adopted* it was his responsibility to file the correct paperwork?! That's warped thinking you cretin.

Sure, we have laws here to prevent illegal immigration, but sometimes you just have to make exceptions. But no, we have a bunch of automatons making idiotic decisions.

@@willpeng4988 you do realize that citizenship isn't automatic for people who are born as Americans? That's what your birth certificate is for. Birth Certificates are forms that are filled out by the parents/hospital and filed with the government. In Adams case somebody a billion years ago made a clerical error and didn't file the proper form which is why this happened. If that form had been filed properly he'd be considered a citizen. If he was a child when this mistake was realized it was the adoptive parents responsibility to fix it. When he turned 18 it became his responsibility. Instead he put it off until after he had a felony record at which point by law it is automatic deportation. Dude should have kept his mouth shut, he was under the radar and if he ever got caught hire a lawyer and play dumb. Bare minimum he should have read the laws before filing for a green card.
yea that dont make no sense. and i agree with angel's response to karen. once a kid is officially adopted by US parents, that paperwork should have the citizenship paperwork. adoptees are legally the children of the adoptors. they are not foster kids. its quite obvious that the adoption industry is not in the best interests of the kids. and that we are ok with that. finally, "clerical error" is bullshit. a couple that adopts that many kids? that's malicious sabotage.
Rob Badlands The Child Citizenship Act of 2000 made all children who were adopted by US parents automatic citizens, even without papers to show for it. They should still obtain a certificate of citizenship as it is needed to show proof of citizenship like US born individuals do with a birth certificate. But if the parents are screw ups and don’t get the child a certificate of citizenship, they can easily obtain one as an adult. The reason all of this happened to Adam is because he was over 18 when the law went into place in 2001. Before then, parents had to apply for citizenship for their adopted child before they were 18 in order for them to be citizens. While there are still 30,000+ adoptees in the US that can’t get citizenship evidence, they are currently fighting this. The most important thing is that this won’t continue to happen with the next generation of kids.
Yeah well I don't have to scrutinize who to thank first before figuring out what I think about this. This kind of thing happened before Trump and it'll continue to happen after Trump. A person builds a life for himself and his loved ones and yet we're beholden to bureaucrats shuffling paperwork around trying to look busy by breaking up families.

Thinking about what's going on with his life, it's absolutely terrifying. He is in a foreign country, doesn't know the language, no friends, no family, no home with little chance of returning. If that happened to me I honestly don't know how I'd handle it.

@PrinceJaxIsBlack he's suing the Korean government because of their negligence with the whole adoption process. They did not screen the parents who were adopting the children. Adopters didn't even have to go to Korea to pick up their child. He may not have grown up in an abusive family if they had been screened properly. The government also failed to ensure that all adoption paperwork was filed.
it didn't attract attention because it is not 100% of the story here. He probably has a criminal record. If you know anything about immigration, you 'd know it's almost impossible to get deported like that. It's Vice, for crying out loud. They also reported that an Army "veteran" got deported to Mexico. Well, he did get deported.... because he was a criminal and his green card got revoked)))
Even if he stole everythburnt the house to the ground they were an abusive family that had it coming. 2 years given what was done to him is far too much.
Good Boy the point is, a lot of “AMERICAN” values stem from religion & the fact the he was arrested for breaking in to steal the Bible he held close to him with from his origin country is just sad. I’m not very religious at all, but I have empathy.
Damn. Adan’s only a felon because both of the adopted parents failed him & the system failed him. Dude turned his life completely around & overcame his struggles only to be failed once again.
Just checked for an update on this guy, he still has not been allowed back into the US but he did sue the adoption agency in South Korea that mishandled his adoption (although he won a pitiful amount). He now lives in Mexico. This poor guy deserves stability and peace in his life :(
Unfortunately there is cruelty all over the world. I have relatives in South America who have stolen so much from myself and my child. They are unrelenting too!
The commandment of love is exceeding broad. Love God and love your neighbor as yourself. The hundreds of commandments answer how to love God and how to love your neighbor. Can you say you love God if you attend a sunday church and not a sabbath church? Can you say you love God if you keep Christmas instead of the feast of tabernacles? Can you say you love your neighbor if you are an employer but refuse to employ him? Can you say you love your neighbor if you cannot house him for 1 month to help him get on his feet? If you are not hated by the world and have not been true much tribulation, you are not a Christian. Our Lord Jesus Christ will pour out his wrath on the world when he returns. The righteous true Christian saints that went through great tribulation shall be caught up with the true Christ Jesus in the air. We shall come down and reign in this earth for a 1,000 years and into eternity as kings and priests. Do not be deceived. 99% of false so called Christians are going to hell fire because they refuse to keep the commandments of God like the new moons, sabbaths, and holy days which Jesus and the Christian Gentiles kept. All those that are eating swine's flesh (pig/pork), the abomination (shrimps, chicken, turkey, catfish, ducks, etc), and the mouse (other unclean creeping things) shall be consumed by fire. Isaiah 65:5, 66:17. Some devils may claim to be aliens from planet Saturn and they may claim that they will take sunday people there. There will not be a rapture of unrepentant sundaykeepers to the true heaven. The new world order has been here since the Roman kingdom church began to rule. Keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus if you are a saint and if you want eternal life. Revelation 14:12. Holy Old King James Bible. That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20 KJB

Were his weapons charges for guns that he was going to use on foreigners, or just for use against close friends and adopted family? Would a foreign object made of lead be assimilated well by human flesh and bone? Do you know of anyone willing to demonstrate the concept of "foreign" using any of the examples above? Were his assaults foreign to his victims, or just the way he's used to greeting people?

Gets deported because requesting a green card triggered a background check. He was trying to do the right thing and they punished him for it.

It's better revoking an adopted child than forcing people who are able to abandone a kid to care about him or her without any oversight. There would be only constant abuse and total mistreatment.

Hey Robert... Aside from the fact you did mention... "On top of the fact the he's undocumented... No fault of his own, he committed a lot of crimes. "
I could go on to basically quote your entire post, but that would be redundant.
DUDE... The guy was "adopted" and literally "taken" from South Korea to the good ole US of A at the age of like two against his will by an "American" family....
Now think about this... I mean this sincerely and put YOURSELF in his shoes while I drop this angle to examine this guys situation for a minute.....
At two when he was adopted by this American family and then they put him in foster care, do you really think it's his fault as a minor he didn't fill out the "proper" immigration documents while he was a kid? Why is the onus on him? Even as an adult? Common sense would reason that the family that adopted him, regardless they put him in foster care, have to take the hit for not filling out his "immigration status" in America after they literally "adopted" the small child and took him here to the states.
It's not like he crossed the southern border illegally through Mexico. He literally was taken against his will and knowledge, hence he was like 2 or 3 yrs old and it's his fault the US government would make a 2-3 year old exempt from these immigration laws considering he "crossed the border" legally since he was "legally" adopted by US citizens and he was too young to make decisions for himself CLEARLY. The onus should be on the "original" US family that adopted him and removed him from his native country. That's crazy talk if you think his situation is his fault.
Why don't you go move to Peru or India since you say... "I'm sure it's not so bad in South Korea. He probably loves it now."
The dude is American and not Korean. He doesn't even speak Korean.
Read what you said and my reply and really put yourself in his shoes. I'm not mad at you, but think your logic is twisted regardless of the written law considering every detail about this unique case is and it's not a normal case.
You seriously sound spineless. The guy is American. The family that adopted him should be the ones in trouble and not this poor guy (i.e. he was abused by them as a small kid and it's his fault per written law).

@@starfaganation no clue where he is ryt now?
If you google his name and click the "Batara Immigration Law" page, you'll see that he has met his birth mother, who gave him up because she was single, poor, and disabled. The two meet up every few months, but have difficulty communicating, as he speaks very little Korean (presumably only what he has learned since being deported) and she speaks no English
@Keith1974 The system failed him in every way possible, gave him years of trauma, and then you wonder why he didn't know how to handle that trauma and got in trouble with the law? And ontop of that, the US has been deporting people over technicalities for years regardless of whether they break the law or not, some of them even after they served in the military.
@Keith1974 your not only heartless but a complete POS
He got locked up for 2 years as a teenager for trying to take back his possessions... WTFF
Those possessions are the last thing an adoptee child has as “a sense of belonging” which psychologically speaking is a on maslow’s hierarchy of basic human needs.
@Dorset Deb ?
@Dorset Deb lmao wtf are you talking about
@Dorset Deb great I found the racist 'pos'
@Dorset Deb youre comment was racist just calling it as it is. You're just grasping at straws
This man has lost his life twice...
Right!
He was just a tiny Korean the first time so it doesn't really count.
Sad but true statement.
You bring in a child against his will , you torture him for majority of his life and when he had something to lose you deport him and Seperate him from his family. America is truly an ambassador of human rights
Everyone got paid from it
Major human rights violation
America is a disgrace
The American adoptive parents should be held accountable for not processing his citizenship. What do we know about them?
Exactly!!
They abandoned him after adopting him so I think it's safe to say they're not the best people
They were clueless farmers, just wanted to adopt children and use them as farmhands. When the child(ren) become rebellious, they didn't want the child(ren) anymore. I hope all potential adopters learn from the mistake this man's FIRST adoptive parents made. I hope this man gets to be with his family soon.
I knew it. This is the keyword where the leftist media failed to mention.
They couldn’t afford it most likely.
They just seperated an innocent man from his baby daughter, loving wife and his entire life over a technical error. That's hardcore US
since he’s married to his wife could he get a green card??
This is bullshit. Makes me angry.
@@mechadonia that's what he was trying to do but that triggered the background check because of his past convictions he was mandatorily deported.

Is fucked
I'm a US Soldier, and I dont fight for this kind of treatment. Once you take a child out of his natural inviroment and force it to adapt to a new inviroment, you should take ownership of that child. It can never go back because it won't be accepted nor will it survive. My heart bleeds for this young man, I am so sorry for what you are going through. America does not represent this.....
Ojeda for U.S. President 2020 🔵🔵🔵
Wake up America well said
The government when in family court applies the law you describe. But when it isnt convenient for the country. They do the opposite. But it gives losers a job in government destroying families .
The government creates criminals to keep themselves busy . Overpaying agents even though the debt is high .who cares 21 trillion dollars debt .the homeland security is more of a public charge than a welfare recipient. Willing to prove this in a jury trial. The government spys on all of us . I dont really care . Unconstitutional laws need to battle tested in court with a great lawyer
@Martha Arteaga You know when your a victim of abuse your like angry and want to fight for justice . I'm tired of people who say we are a nation of laws . Many of these laws are unconstitutional and the founding fathers are willing to be resurrected to start the revolution that they said should happen in 250 years . Government gone wild . Because I don't see people who understand how wrong things are in the country. Other countries aren't much better .
passing that child around in that manner was abused in itself
I'm just now seeing this. Adam was my roommate in Salem and best friend for years. He is even my motivation to become a licensed barber. It's so sad that this happened to him. Being separated from his wife, kids, friends and everything he knows. He's been through so much, even at the hands of his adopted family. Brought to a place that he didn't know and didn't speak the language. The Crapsers are truly evil people. I knew this entire story, yet seeing this (Especially when he was in ICE detention center about to cry himself) seriously made me cry. Adam, I love you, bro! I pray for you regularly.
Please let us know if there is any new updates please.
Write to Congress to change these laws ..
do something to help him out then, not just pray
Ana Sanchez, what you propose for the congress to remake the law? The issue is he rake a few felonies in the past. It is unfortunate but if you want to change the law for all so he can be legal with felonies, can't you see what total catastrophic damage it may introduce to the states?
best friends for years but answer on social media LOL. I call my best friends even from the past and help them not just sit there and pray. I sure hop you reach out in REAL LIFE and help, prayer dose NOTHING.
2 years for picking up his stuff. Man that’s insane. They don’t even give rapists or even a guy who was drunk driving and crashed head on to a police vehicle 2 years prison time
Violation of Private Property RC2.33.C5
Well he technically broke into a private property not belonging to him. Law doesn’t care about being nice.
I agree! My ex-boyfriend beat me up, was caught with heroin and meth, and got out on bail. While out on bail, he was caught at a known drug house. He again had meth and heroin, baggies and a scale, which is possession with intent to distribute. He got less than three years and got released today. He should have received over 25 years according to the law, but the prosecutor gave him this unbelievable plea deal. Smh
@@YvetteArby Nobody should be locked up for 25 years on drug charges. However, if he assaulted you unprovoked, then he should have been dealt with for that.

I have a theory that people not protected by the US (or UK) laws, are not considered people until it doesn't serve obvious political, social, economical purpose. Thus, a little thin-eyed kid is seen as something a little more than a pet/toy or smth.

Two years In Prison for breaking into a house he used to live in to steal his only real possessions of no real value. Rapists get less.
This really hurts my heart to see. He didn't deserve any of the treatment he got from the negative adoption experiences to the deportation.
In addition to my sincere prayers, what are some other movements that need to happen to get this situation and other issues similar resolved
What do we do? How can I help?🤔
Well said. This hurts my heart too. I pray that this man finds a place to call home with his family.

I hope they go to hell
You have to sign papers when you get married to become a citizen being married doesn't make you one just makes it easier to become one.
What I don't understand is why someone has to go through this just because "that's the way it is". Once he's able to prove that he is now a working man, capable and stable; who's lived his entire life in the US and has a family who depends on him, wouldn't it be reasonable to let him stay? This shit is even documented now, as we've just watched. All that is missing is a fucking piece of paper saying he's american.
Fucked up shit indeed.
Ian Sohr because America is like that, I'm in Chile for the same reasons
All immigration rules cannot be used against this man for that he is not an immigrant. He didn't migrate to the US, he was brought to the US.
It's not like Adam forged his visa or crossed the border illegally. He was brought to the states, probably against his will, and then got thrown from one foster family to another and dumped. Almost 40 years later, the time where he finally had a loving family and a stable home, America kicked him out and again against his will. It's almost like the adopters brought him to ruin his life, and when he got close to ''the American Dream'' the US decided to ruin Adam's life more.
This. Immigration laws shouldn't be enforceable to him. Though having a Korean passport (or any other country for that matter) probably nullified that :/
Possibly, but I'm not sure if a passport is needed for deportation.
I don't live in the US but I do believe that it's a great country. I just hope that the coming days will better than the ones we've had.
Great music, I love jazz, great landscapes and national parks, great cultural diversity, great museums,...
This is what I personally like about the US.
that crappy logic doesnt even make sense. so illegals can just bring their kids into America & the kids are all instantly citizens, right? what freakin planet are you from?
This is inhumane! As an adoptee this is beyond upsetting
As a human this is beyond upsetting 😭
I can't believe he got 2 years of prison for taking back what belonged to him. That's ridiculous .
2 years for a Korean bible and q pair of shoes, if he was a thief he would've took more than that.
That family abused him both physically and mentally, he did nothing wrong. He was just claiming a part of himself. Compared to what they did to him, he didn't deserve jail time.
This system is so fucked I swear. I can't even.
Love you Adam, hope it'll get better for you.

@@BeanieNinjay0 Why dont you fight me in real life queér
Nothing says I'm tougher then asking someone in the youtube comment section to "fight me in real life"... It screams pathetic mess.. sorry bruh.. you are the weakest link
This should not have happened. I think foreign adoptions deserve the same oversight as domestic ones. He should NOT be deported because he didn't lie, he didn't NOT file the paperwork. He was brought here by an American, he was adopted by an American, he was systematically abused and abandoned by an American. He doesn't deserve this
Under this circumstance, it's more like kidnapping someone from their homeland. What if he were born in North Korea, not the South?
Exactly the reason he should be returned.
@jamal the 3rd no I didn't. That doesn't change the fact that as a child, through no choice of his making, he was brought to this country and raised as an American, fully assimilated to his parent's culture and country. The fact that THEY didn't sign the right papers when he was a child isn't his fault and I just think his citizenship should have been automatic when he was adopted. Sending him to a country he doesn't know, doesn't understand, has no connection to, basically destroying his life is cruel and unusual punishment. If he had been an intentional illegal immigrant, it would have been justified but he didn't even know.
@jamal the 3rd He was punished for those crimes. How many times do you want to punish people? And the fact that he was abused by his so called parents when he should have been protected is not his fault, but the fault of the authorities. And if America allowed these adoptions from South Korea, then the Authorities should have done the paper work as soon as he arrived and granted him his citizen ship. And why could he not have stayed with the Foster Mother, the second person? And the fact that children growing up in an abusive household will generally act the same as adults. And everyone deserves a second chance, or do you think, once a felon they should be treated like crap for the rest of their lives?
@jamal the 3rd he had no reason to check it. Why would he since he was raised here and his parents never made him aware that they hadn't signed the papers? I don't think most people who are adopted from another country would even think to check their immigration status, they would probably think that if they're adopted by a US citizen, it makes them US citizens just like their biological children would be. His citizenship was never in question until he got arrested. I just think deporting him to a country he knows nothing about is excessive
America took him away from his own, America made him what he is. America rejected him.
I feel for him because I can relate in many ways. May God be with him!
if you're adopted by a US family, how are you not instantly made a US citizen?
TheAK47striker more bureaucratic BS
They didn't fill out the paperwork.
Rebuilt Gearbox but what is a piece of paper?
The people who first adopted neglected to fill out an essential form when they changed his name.
Mickey... A piece of paper is apparently everything.
So he got in trouble because he broke back into his own house to take his own stuff?!?!?! This made him a felon?
he got into trouble because he was an illegal immigrant
@RedLight GreenArrow
Although I'm surprised he served two years for what I assume was a 1st-offense breaking/entering charge (you can't steal your own stuff), the video stated he had assault, weapons, and domestic violence charges when he was older.
RedLight GreenArrow , yep
Unfortunately if you break into a property without the owners permission. You will get arrested, he should have just called the cops to accompany him and he would have gotten his stuff back with no trouble... sad story
@MusicMadMaurice There's a reason...it's called "for profit prison", they donated bigly to the Republicans after Obama put them out of business...now IT"S BAAACK, basically they donate money to politicians to keep them in business, politicians enact laws and policies that land a lot of people in jail (esp ppl of color) think --current asylum seekers, they then end up in jail, tax payers pay the bill, the prison owners make lots of money and they pay out to the politicians again....

He should sue the United States. He was taken from his country by people who were out to benefit them selfs. Then they dumped him. He ended up in a horrible situation. Being abused, this would be looked at today as human trafficking of a child. The government allowed this to happen to him by taking no oversight of what happens to these children once they got here. This is a crime committed by the USA. Not the child, not only should they give him his citizenship they should compensate him for the horrible treatment he has lived through. The government allow him to be taken from his home country. He didn’t come hear by his own accord.
sueing the united states, that sounds like a south park episode waiting to happen
@@Falacer2790 so true
He cannot afford that.
Yes on top of the abuse he received from his adoptive parents
Sue the U.S... lol!! Yeah, okay.
There was an influx of a Korean adoptees after world war II as you see and other countries such as China, Iran, Panama.
Either the adoption agency ( which was more than likely overseas), the parents, or USICIS didn't finish filing the correct paperwork.
Some of you don't realize that a lot of us were taken from our birth parents. If you ever research a lot of the stories you'll see and you'll find out.
We were adopted and we came here we had to learn another language. Under USICIS we were granted US citizenship until the age of 18.
Just like Adam I was given up by my adopted parents to the state. Like you said being adopted you really don't feel like you belong or fit in.
Upon my 18th birthday I had to go to immigration and get another green card which I didn't understand. Never once was I asked if I wanted to become a US citizen this is not something that they offer to you.
I didn't realize it till the last 5 years this was the situation. I applied for federal benefits then I was told that I am not naturalized as US citizen.
Congress has been fully aware of these adoptees they don't have an exact number but they know we exist. Some of the delegates were very understanding from what I was told and some of them are not I've met a few other adoptees I learned their stories and I learned Adams too.
So many of us were walking around here thinking that where US citizens, thinking that we had rights when we actually didn't.
So voting is considered a crime against the United States if you're not a US citizen. Applying for benefits and receiving them is another crime against the United States. These are just the name some of the reasons for deportation.
I got real blessed I just got my permanent residency card about 4 months ago. This has been a fight with Congress for a very long time.
Congress did make a change in the early 2000s but if you were under the age of 18 for adoptees you were automatically granted citizenship. The United States when they take children and they adopt them to other countries they make sure those countries give them their citizenship.
We currently have a migration crisis. These people coming have been through hell unable to feed their families and they're just trying to survive.
They are given certain rights that they can still get their citizenship even if they commit certain crimes or they were deported and they can come back to the US.
Congress is currently working on a law to give these people naturalized citizenship and I'm happy for them because they cannot go back to where they're from.
The situation still stands for adoptees we're still being deported we're still not giving our citizenship and we are not able to come back once we're deported.
One thing I can say is Korea is giving those adoptees who've been deported back to Korea their Korean citizenship. This is a really hard transition for those of us that came over and are heading back we no longer speak this language.
South Korean government is trying to help transition with the large influx of adoptees being sent back.
I hope they make the change and grandfather us in and give us our naturalization for citizenship.
This is so fundamentally fucked up! His wife & family are here in the states and he's stuck in Seoul alone contemplating suicide
polifatts please show me some facts on that one buddy.
Bottlekap obama deported 2.5 million people. More than the sum of all the presidents in the 20th century. Check the facts
That is true and a point to prove Trumptards are insane.
g w You realize this person was deported under Obama right?
Of course and thus it proves Trumptards are insane. The Trumptards and Trump have been complaining about open-border policy of the evil left like lunatics. Under Obama administration, even Latino illegals were greatly reduced. But those facts are only facts when they are afraid of people blaming their Trump daddy, like what you are doing now. I call that INSANE.
Injustice done to him.
He's had all these years... since he was 18 to fix the problem. Why willingly break a federal law? That's what he did. At any moment he could have fixed it, but, he waited far, far to long. You know, as an adult you are supposed to be self-Responsible.... it's a choice and he just ignored his responsibility. No one's fault but his own. Each Human born has a difficult life... are you going to wallow in victimhood or take responsibility for your life. Don't wait until it is to late.
Marcy Carson so it’s his fault his adopted parents decided to be negligent and not finish off the paper for the infant they chose to bring to America. He did not decide to be here
He could have changed his situation long before he was told to leave. He knew there was a problem long before he turned 18. Each of us is responsible for our own lives. No, he did not choose to be here. Though, if he'd remained in Korea it was very possible that he wouldn't be alive at all. He should count his blessings. Yes, his adopted parents had the responsibility to take care of the paperwork. Because this wasn't done, it sounds like something screwy was going on, this sort of thing doesn't happen without reason. He didn't do it until he was pushing middle age. That's to bad, he broke the law and ignored it until it was far to late. It's not your fault, it is not mine, the responsibility for his life and the choices he made.....are entirely his. Sounds like you feel strongly about this subject. You should contact him and see what you can do to help his cause. Maybe you can find out why he was adopted by a USA family without the proper paperwork from Korea or the USA. .
Life isn't fair but laws still need to be followed
He was a victim of his adoptive families neglect. If there was a true justice system, the initial adoptive paperwork would have been filed and he would have become a US citizen. Insult was added to injustice when he was convicted of a crime for trying to get his only belongings from an abusive family. For those that said he knew since he was 18, well his adoptive family knew before that and didn't fix it. In addition, what 18 yo knows how to navigate the legal maze around immigration law. I agree with Clay Girl.
He went to prison and did his time but then he gets punished for finding out he wasn't a citizen and wanted to make it right by becoming one? Our system is broken.

I was very fortunate to be adopted to a wonderful family, especially my dad who treated me as if I was no different than his own blood children. When I see these stories, it really breaks my heart with sadness for the children and anger towards the abusive adoptive parents.
I was adopted through Holt as well, but I was 5 months old. Only child, grew up in norcal. I'd go to Korean adoptee conferences with my parents every year. Good times
Perhaps koreans-americans would be kind enough to personally write to pres.biden with as many signatures ad you can get to rally for the safe return of your co korean-american colleague.
I was adopted too, from “love the children.” Stories like this hit so hard bc I’m truly no different from Adam. I was just luckier than him, and that makes me really emotional bc luck is not something that I feel good about in this case. Anyone could fall on the other side of that and you have no choice in it. I’m praying for him and hoping that he is OK right now, right this minute. I’m going to see if he has a site or something. 🙁
A lot of adoptive parents in the US are abusive. Russia even imposed an adoption ban on the US after several Russian adoptees were killed by their US parents.
Very sad
I feel you man. I'm a Korean adoptee living in Seoul. I understand how hard life is. I struggle everyday to fit in here in Korea and back in Australia. Being adopted sometimes puts you in a place where you have no idea where you truly belong, I too never spoke the language when I came back and I still struggle now.

@@zm1786 Proof?
Adam's ability to establish a life in South Korea is extremely limited due to his inability to communicate effectively both through language and culture. This is a travesty of justice.
Not our problem. He had every chance to become legal, and he also had a couple of chances for amnesty over the years. We don't reward people simply because their life may be difficult where they come from. I mean going by your logic, we should kick every non english speaking immigrant out, because their ability to establish a life in America is extremely limited due to their inability to communicate effectively both through language and culture. So congratulations, you just played yourself.
No, since like the 70's, the US has had a couple of big amnesty events like once every decade where they've basically allowed illegals to come forward and be fast tracked to citizenship.
Example: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_Reform_and_Control_Act_of_1986
-legalized certain seasonal agricultural illegal immigrants, and;
-legalized illegal immigrants who entered the United States before January 1, 1982 and had resided there continuously with the penalty of a fine, back taxes due, and admission of guilt; candidates were required to prove that they were not guilty of crimes, that they were in the country before January 1, 1982, and that they possessed minimal knowledge about U.S. history, government, and the English language.
So that's why he has no excuse. He had many chances over the years to become a citizen very easily. And no, we shouldn't reward people simply because they've illegally come to our shores, even if it was against their will or from a young age. By doing that, we would invite a lot of problems, like anchor children where parents get to stay because they brought their kids here, more dependents for people to claim welfare on (i.e. the government pays them money every month per kid), and it would also encourage things like illegal adoption and human trafficking. So it's not as simple as letting people stay.
+Wayne TV Don't let that prick warp your views on americans even further. What you see on tv relating to americans mostly shows the bad. There's ample amount of evidence showing most of us aren't pieces of shit.
C North "every chance" ?? How
C North your a fucking idiot.
That's the sickest thing I've heard in a long time. I don't care what kind if crime he may have done, it's America's obligation to let him live in the States. While he is responsible for his past crimes, he isn't responsible for someone else having shipped him over to the U.S. when he was just a kid. It's the ethical obligation of the U.S. to treat him just like every other person having grown up in the U.S. Culturally, he is first and foremost an American -- not Korean.
Tao Yanbao it is not American obligation to let him live in the states it was his obligation to follow the law of the country he lives in. A Visa is about 200 bucks, he has no excuses for not doing what he was legally required to do to remain here. It makes me sick that people like you seem to think that the law should only apply to certain people under certain circumstances, its pathetic really you fucking criminals.
Tao Yanbao once he turned 18 it was his responsibility and his alone, the parents should have but they didnt, that happened decades ago, we cant fix what they did not do nor is it our responsibility to fix it, it was his and his alone solely as I cant walk in for him and day hey he needs a green card only he can do that. So no I'm not retarded you clearly are though, the fact he didnt fix his failed parents mistake is on him alone.
Tao Yanbao fact is he messed up not us, no one but him even knew about the situation because he never tried to fix it. So no man it's his fault and his alone, it shouldnt have happened and we can say that till trumpets sound but it's not gonna change the fact that that's how it went because he let it go that way
Jake Lakin it was the goverments responsibility to follow through with the adopted childs paperwork at least child services could have done it for the first 15 years he was failed by child services. Im sure the hardline approach you have o this is employed in everything else you do.
En P is what happened to him unfortunate absolutely it is, but it wouldn't have happened if he would have taken responsibility for himself and filed his paperwork so he could get his citizenship before he committed all of those crimes that resulted in him being deported. So how is it the fault of anyone other then his shit parents and his own fault?
I feel like its a crime what they are doing to him
It is. He didn't have a choice to be taken to America, the people who raised him purposely shaped him into a criminal, and now they're deporting him because they've realized what they created. He doesn't know korean any better than the average american, this kind of racism is really disgusting.
Gee do you think??? Grow a brain.
Maraid Vintena agree
Agree.
I was taken to the United States at the age of 6 months and was deported at the age of 24 years old to Mexico. it's harder then you think losing your family your way of life to a country that is not your own I've been in Mexico for 6 years now and it's still mind blowing. keep your head up bro
you have no idea what's it's like being in a country that is not your home.
Can you speak Spanish?
yes but not as well as English
behind thenaame Yeah, "what law did you break" due to how you were raised? Some of these people were brought up in a way that could lead them to becoming criminals in the future. Let's not ask what laws they broke but how they were raised by AMERICAN parents.
I was on probation I fought a case for almost 2 years and then ICE was involved it was very complicated and it was 6 years ago I am currently living in Mexico City.
This is utterly ridiculous. He was a child when he came here. a child. You cannot expect a child to get his own paperwork in order so if there is a loop or a crack in the system-fix it. I don't care if he had a felony or not. The USA is his country. the government in 1955 allowed them to bring these eight kids over whatever paperwork they had at the time that they filed at the time should be sufficient for the rest of their lives and if there is an error the government needs to fix that error. Don't ship these people back for something that had absolutely nothing to do with them.
Well the USA isn't his country he doesn't have the paper work to prove it so time to go home
@@otisredrim7662 You go home the natives own the land you immigrant.
otis redrim wow just wow I have no words to say how can you be so heartless smh
FRAG OUT,FIRE IN THE HOLE! Your so fucken ignorant
I feel sorry for him, but somebody takes advantage of the loop or whatever. He is not all innocent. If you are so sympathic with him. You should take him with all this burden to your home, and see if it works. Talk is cheap. If you go to South korea, you will be treated same way or worse. USA or any country can't buy or take all other people's problem, otherwise the country will be a loser(all fucked up) too. USA in California is getting poorer and poorer day by day. Just look around, massive homeless, druggy, zombies, expensive housing and food. Americans and Immigrants and rich companies are moving somewhere else and did not start today, it's happening for the last 20 years. You can't even drive safely, the homeless dart in front of your car when you are using your green light, and they come from the blind spot. It's so scaring so many close calls. Here in Orange County, CA in Santa Ana downtown when drive through, it looks like a war zone flooded with homeless tents, etc. And these homeless don't want to go to shelter because shelter has rules, disciplines: no drugs, no alcohol, working inside the shelter required. They don't want that, they want free ride. I don't feel sorry for them. They want to be in the street to do their drugs. Mental people and druggy people are not supposed to be in the street. There is million dollars for treatment for them. Where the money went. Mental people either were born like that or the drug made them mental. Remember taking drugs you get mental illness, drug is poison to your brain. I never understand what on earth somebody would start drug first time knowing that drug will destroy your life you lose everything including your life.
The U.S. failed this guy.
Sure... he committed crimes that haunted his life. But yeahLet's forget those little details and live our lives like a third world country.Oh wait a minute... Mexico would have deported him 30 something years ago and no whining would be allowed.
Patrick Cruz yup.
Col. Scott and he gas worked hard to change his life , starting his own business to support his family as a contributing member if society. Once again it's the American story : kid with a tough start makes good. Jow do we repay his hard work? We maroon him in a country not his own, depriving him of the only country he has ever known. That may be legal, but it's just wrong And all the trumptard bigotry you can muster can't change that.
Patrick Cruz he could have filed the paperwork. I mean its not hard and the second he turned the paperwork in he'd be fine.

*as the child being adopted*
it was his responsibility
to file the correct paperwork?!

@Angel - no shit sherlock. What he meant is. US international adoption should be automatically us citizenship without filling out paperwork
@@willpeng4988 you do realize that citizenship isn't automatic for people who are born as Americans? That's what your birth certificate is for. Birth Certificates are forms that are filled out by the parents/hospital and filed with the government. In Adams case somebody a billion years ago made a clerical error and didn't file the proper form which is why this happened. If that form had been filed properly he'd be considered a citizen. If he was a child when this mistake was realized it was the adoptive parents responsibility to fix it. When he turned 18 it became his responsibility. Instead he put it off until after he had a felony record at which point by law it is automatic deportation. Dude should have kept his mouth shut, he was under the radar and if he ever got caught hire a lawyer and play dumb. Bare minimum he should have read the laws before filing for a green card.
yea that dont make no sense. and i agree with angel's response to karen. once a kid is officially adopted by US parents, that paperwork should have the citizenship paperwork. adoptees are legally the children of the adoptors. they are not foster kids. its quite obvious that the adoption industry is not in the best interests of the kids. and that we are ok with that. finally, "clerical error" is bullshit. a couple that adopts that many kids? that's malicious sabotage.
Rob Badlands The Child Citizenship Act of 2000 made all children who were adopted by US parents automatic citizens, even without papers to show for it. They should still obtain a certificate of citizenship as it is needed to show proof of citizenship like US born individuals do with a birth certificate. But if the parents are screw ups and don’t get the child a certificate of citizenship, they can easily obtain one as an adult. The reason all of this happened to Adam is because he was over 18 when the law went into place in 2001. Before then, parents had to apply for citizenship for their adopted child before they were 18 in order for them to be citizens. While there are still 30,000+ adoptees in the US that can’t get citizenship evidence, they are currently fighting this. The most important thing is that this won’t continue to happen with the next generation of kids.
And we lecture other countries about human rights.

Welcome to the United States of America
Thinking about what's going on with his life, it's absolutely terrifying. He is in a foreign country, doesn't know the language, no friends, no family, no home with little chance of returning. If that happened to me I honestly don't know how I'd handle it.

Looks like he did. Hope he can make a fresh start somewhere on whatever money they give him for that. He's had a hell of a rough run so far.
That's great but why did he sue Korea? America's the one that failed him
@PrinceJaxIsBlack he's suing the Korean government because of their negligence with the whole adoption process. They did not screen the parents who were adopting the children. Adopters didn't even have to go to Korea to pick up their child. He may not have grown up in an abusive family if they had been screened properly. The government also failed to ensure that all adoption paperwork was filed.

The commandment of love is exceeding broad. Love God and love your neighbor as yourself. The hundreds of commandments answer how to love God and how to love your neighbor. Can you say you love God if you attend a sunday church and not a sabbath church? Can you say you love God if you keep Christmas instead of the feast of tabernacles? Can you say you love your neighbor if you are an employer but refuse to employ him? Can you say you love your neighbor if you cannot house him for 1 month to help him get on his feet? If you are not hated by the world and have not been true much tribulation, you are not a Christian. Our Lord Jesus Christ will pour out his wrath on the world when he returns. The righteous true Christian saints that went through great tribulation shall be caught up with the true Christ Jesus in the air. We shall come down and reign in this earth for a 1,000 years and into eternity as kings and priests. Do not be deceived. 99% of false so called Christians are going to hell fire because they refuse to keep the commandments of God like the new moons, sabbaths, and holy days which Jesus and the Christian Gentiles kept. All those that are eating swine's flesh (pig/pork), the abomination (shrimps, chicken, turkey, catfish, ducks, etc), and the mouse (other unclean creeping things) shall be consumed by fire. Isaiah 65:5, 66:17. Some devils may claim to be aliens from planet Saturn and they may claim that they will take sunday people there. There will not be a rapture of unrepentant sundaykeepers to the true heaven. The new world order has been here since the Roman kingdom church began to rule. Keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus if you are a saint and if you want eternal life. Revelation 14:12. Holy Old King James Bible. That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 5:20 KJB
