Young offenders in San Francisco illegally get no more break?

Question

San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom said "the city had spent $2.3 million to house 162 illegal immigrant youths since 2005, and an additional $38,955 to fly juvenile offenders to Honduras, American Samoa and Mexico over the past two years."

OK... why would they wanna fly American Samoans back to their country? Aren't they American nationals? They have the right to live and work in the U.S.

Someone please clarify.

Answer 1

Juvenile offenders.  That probably means runaways.  They are sending them home to mumsy.  Juveniles can't live by themselves.

Answer 2

San Francisco is a disgrace to America

Answer 3

young offenders , they usually shipped back or in other countries

Answer 4

San Francisco is America's most liberal and derelict city. They take juvenile offenders that have committed crimes, are illegally in the US and hide them from the legal system. They violate immigration law as well as civil law. American Samoans are not Americans, just have the partial name of  the Continent.
