Banana republic: the US government deports a US citizen

CNN has a news item on a mentally ill man who was deported to Mexico despite being a US citizen. Looks like all you need to be kicked out of the country is Latino heritage.

CNN.com Story Highlights
• Mom searching hospitals, shelters and jails here looking for her 29-year-old son
• ACLU: Guzman's birth certificate shows he was born in Los Angeles County
• Guzman's relatives sued Department of Homeland Security and L.A. County Sheriff
