President Barack Obama
This is a follow up to the January 30, 2014 article
"Petition To Deport
Justin Bieber Hits 100,000 Signatures Sent To The White House
Requiring A Response From President Obama" where the
Judiciary Report stated “Thus far, none of Bieber’s legal issues are
of the level that would warrant deportation, as one has to commit a
serious felony to be deported as an immigrant. However, the White
House, under its own rules, is compelled to respond.”
Justin Bieber
As stated in the aforementioned article, to receive
a response from the president, a petition must have 100,000
signatures. The deport Bieber petition has nearly three times that
amount. This week, President Obama responded to the petition signed
by 275,000 and as the Judiciary Report stated three months ago, the
president would not be deporting Bieber (for his offenses at the
time). See the president's official response below.
However, despite Obama opting not to deport Bieber,
Homeland Security is after him. When he rolls through airport
security in America now, he's been facing added scrutiny and lengthy
questioning, due to a dangerous incident that alarmed the
government. Bieber and his entourage were smoking weed on a private
flight into New Jersey, impairing the airplane crew’s ability to
maneuver the plane without distress and difficulty.
The captain ordered gas masks distributed to ensure
the crew could continue to fly the aircraft and not flunk required
drug tests. The captain radioed the airport and staff sent federal
police to storm plane when it landed in New Jersey. Bieber and
company were interrogated for 4-hours regarding the incident. Bieber
was detained and interrogated again by Homeland Security this week
at LAX (Los Angeles). Bieber is a marked man.

Believing in Immigration Reform
Thanks for your petition and your participation in
We the People. Sorry to disappoint, but we won’t be commenting on
this one. The We the People terms of participation state that, “to
avoid the appearance of improper influence, the White House may
decline to address certain procurement, law enforcement,
adjudicatory, or similar matters properly within the jurisdiction of
federal departments or agencies, federal courts, or state and local
government in its response to a petition."
So we'll leave it to others to comment on Mr.
Bieber’s case, but we’re glad you care about immigration issues.
Because our current system is broken. Too many employers game the
system by hiring undocumented workers, and 11 million people are
living in the shadows.
That status quo isn’t good for our economy or our
country. We need common-sense immigration reform to make sure
everyone plays by the same set of rules.
Not only is it the right thing to do morally, it’s
the right thing for our country: Independent economists say
immigration reform will grow our economy and shrink our deficits by
almost $1 trillion in the next 20 years. For those of you counting
at home, that’s 12.5 billion concert tickets -- or 100 billion
copies of Mr. Bieber’s debut album. You better believe it.
