Reprieve for Sheikhan

[Lucky]

Good for Sheiky. He committed a crime, did his time, that should be it.

The guy's basically a citizen, for how long he's been here.

good to hear.

some people might think he's a jerk (i dont, i think he's fun to watch), but anyone who knows the background of this case will agree this whole thing was total BS.

i wonder if this will 'blacklist' sheiky from all the poker tv shows (PAD, HSP)

Good point, that cocaine bust etc etc really damaged Mike's rep too.

Why are they wasting time on a small-time clown like Sheiky? What are they smoking?

[selurah]

This whole thing was absurd to begin with. They decide they are going to try and deport the guy for a crime that he committed 12 years ago. A crime that was apparently so heinous that the Contra County office that prosecuted him couldn't remember or produce any details about the case to a judge b/c "they don't keep misdemeanor case files for more than 10 years." You would think that if the guy needed to be deported b/c he was some kind of threat that maybe someone would know what his case was about.

Not only that but the guy:

1. Has been living in the US since the age of 9.
2. Has been a legal permanent resident of the US since 1983.
3. Is married to a US citizen and has a 9 year old daughter.

What kind of morons does The Department of Homeland Security have working for them is what I want to know?

why the [censored] do people still a give [censored] about this?

[Farfenugen]

Good to hear. I don't particularly like the guy but injustice isn't right either.

[Hotel Detect]

yeah there is no way that his offenses merit deportation. I am glad this screw job didnt go through. Now i can look forward to seeing sheikhan and his faux hawk douchebag entourage around town. Heh, honestly I get a kick out of it.

[Mr_Mxyztplk]

will anyone bring up the pedo charges during a game to put him on tilt now?

Regardless of one's feelings towards Sheiky, this is justice. (At least it is as far as I know.)

Yeah, and he'll probably pull pics of some blazing hot chick who happens to be 17-years old out of his wallet and laugh in your face.
