No, it really doesn't. This message took me longer.

I didn't exactly ask a question, just musing that I didn't know. I didn't expect an answer.I mean it took less time than it did for you to post that question
Well, every visa category is treated differently from one another but drug use can be a reason for inadmissibility for all applicants. (The language also suggests that the problem wasn't in admitting Harry but with others who may not have been admitted even though they have comparable drug use histories. Unless the Heritage Foundation has cases to compare it to, I don't think they will be able to make a case against DHS based on the relevant policy).Spousal visas are treated differently, if that's what he came to the US on.
The question I always had to answer didn't ask for your age, just if you ever used drugs. As far as I know, if you answer yes on ESTA, you will have to apply for a tourist visa (and before ESTA, you were likely to be denied entry at the airport) and all visas come with an interview in which I would imagine they ask for specifics and make a decision based on that.Is it normal to treat teenage drug use as relevant to the visa application of a grown adult who is pushing 40?
I think what you say is true for any visa. If you didn't get caught, how would USCIS want to prove that you did what you say you didn't do?You could have overstayed your visa, which, if you were caught, would have barred you from entering the US legally for a long time, but if you weren't caught and married a US citizen, if you weren't a felon, you could get your green card, all without having any connections. So there is a lot of latitude for spouses, because the purpose is to make the US citizen happy.
Yeah, well, Harry has also admitted to using both psychedelic mushrooms and pot at Courtney Cox's house in, what 2015 or 2016? So, within five years of said visa application, when he was well past his teen years and into his 30s? It would seem that whatever drug use he engaged in prior to joining the British Army was resumed once he left the British Army.Is it normal to treat teenage drug use as relevant to the visa application of a grown adult who is pushing 40?
Because when you apply for your green card, they ask you when and how you entered the US, and they have the visa documentation to show whether you're lying. So you tell them the truth on your green card application. That is different from drug use, unless you lie about it and your FBI fingerprint search shows a drug conviction.I think what you say is true for any visa. If you didn't get caught, how would USCIS want to prove that you did what you say you didn't do?
Because Tom Cruise is a ScientologistSame went for Tom Cruise when he publicly opined that post partem depression could be cured without drugs inferring a person would be weak to seek help for this condition. His opinion was in response to a public statement by Brooke Shields about her own struggle with this type of depression. Who did he think he was saying her doctors were wrong and she was wrong and making her seem weak to boot.
Absolutely not. That's the point.A Scientologist..............uh, ok, that makes him qualified?
They'd need more than one person treated differently. They'd have to show a pattern of how they treat these cases and that Harry was treated differently from that pattern. Don't forget that the pattern could include being lenient towards people in Harry's situation.The language on drug use gives USCIS a lot of leeway, though. That's why I think that The Heritage Foundation would only be able to prove wrongdoing if they could prove that someone else was treated differently even though they had the same or a similar drug use history as Harry. But given that it's The Heritage Foundation, the question is if this is really about Harry or if they have a different agenda.
Pot is legal in CA and while it wasn't back then, many people convicted of marijuana offenses have been pardoned because it is legal now. Psychedelic mushrooms aren't legal now but they are on the way to becoming legal due to their benefits in treating certain psychological conditions including PTSD.Yeah, well, Harry has also admitted to using both psychedelic mushrooms and pot at Courtney Cox's house in, what 2015 or 2016?
He's repeating what many experts say while recounting his personal experience. Lots of people do this without condemnation.What I find objectionable about Harry and drugs is his voicing a public opinion of drugs being good for you in certain cases. How the heck is he in the position of making a medical recommendation? I doubt very much whether he has one iota of medical or even basic science education.
Will they also go after Melania's path to citizenship?Were pot and psychedelic mushrooms illegal in the place and time when Harry took them?
I mean they must have been otherwise this case would be a non-starter. I think the heritage foundation is going after him because he and his wife are relatively outspoken in support of "liberal" causes. Also, they are probably hoping there is something that will let them argue Harry had to bribe his way in here.
Touche....Will they also go after Melania's path to citizenship?
This is yesterday's reportHas anyone seen him testify? I have not but heard he is on the 2nd day and that he broke down on the stand? I heard this on the news but did not see it myself.
