@ angry

Of course the ones who are from here have to stay here.
They belong here and having comitted an offence they pay their time and then be left here.

But those who are not from here, they should send them back where they come from.
I wonder if this fellow would be such a fool to do something like that in his own country.

Our law says that anyone who receive a residence/working permit when commiting a crime or foolishnes, their rights will be revoked and they have to go back home.

It is about time they start implementing these laws.
