Wow! that 1st amendment doesn't really work anymore.

When I lived in the US on a green card (for 20 years) I was leary about political activity, there were never any obvious rules against it, and I was in this "taxation without representation" state so had to find outlets other than voting in order to have a say about how my taxes were spent (I'm from NZ where people with green card equivalents are very much allowed to vote)

Seems like this guy was doing all the right things, even applying to become a citizen - I guess the american dream has rather soured under an authoritarian government
