======================================= Thanks Venantius for the alert. Update: Yves Gomes will not be deported on Aug. 13 10 Aug: Channel 9 News. On Aug. 10, 17-year old Yves Gomes received news that the US government would not deport him on August 13, but rather that he had been granted a deferral. The family celebrated in their Silver Spring home. Video: 1m. 35s. Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCKeXoXRaYo 5 Aug: Huffington Post (US), Yves Gomes, a caring, intelligent young man from Maryland is scheduled to be deported on Aug. 13. This young man who has lived in the U.S. 16 of his 17 years, will soon be sent to India, a country he has no memory of with a language he doesn't speak... Yves' deportation benefits no one; we all lose. That isn't justice...
